The camera island is unsurprisingly huge.

DarlingYuck, 25 Jan 2025I see no different between this phone and xiaomi 12S Ultra.... moreThe camera island looks cool and I love it.. Samsung have same camera rings 4 years in a row.. and I'm s22 Ultra user but Samsung sadly got very boring with the same camera tech over and over.. s25 Ultra is a good phone but nothing special.. the AI stuff for me are more gimmicky..
I am a camera lover also 5000mah 45w charging for 5 years not cool at all.. have to say goodbye to Samsung still love my s22 Ultra

        I see no different between this phone and xiaomi 12S Ultra. All phone have similar ugly big camera island.

        Maybe its the same xiaomi phone after all since 3 years ago.

        Looks like chinese brand never learn from the flop sales of their flagship.

            DLT 501, 25 Jan 2025Then get a Samsung and quit whining. I'm sure I saw yo... moreOh my god, this person is replying logical, on-the-point refutation to braindead whiners!
            Not a safe way to live in the GSMArena. But I understand, emphatise, and support you.

              CargoJoe, 25 Jan 2025Wow an ultrawide downgrade. Seems like a missed opportunity... moreThe only downgrade I've seen this year is Samsung with the S-Pen. Chinese companies don't. There's a lot of people waiting for Xiaomi's 15 ultra and Vivo's X200 Ultra to make a choice. I heard OnePlus and Oppo are gearing up too. Google pixel is still out there. Bro the only people playing safe here are Apple and Samsung. They have diehard fans 😂

                GAMIR3DH, 25 Jan 2025Mi10 Ultra came out in 2020, i compared it with the S20 Ult... moreI totally understand what you mean. One UI is buttery smooth and has tons of customisations and looks clean. One UI 7 is even way polished than 6, now with vertical scrolls in app gallery as opposed to last year's horizontal scrolling. One UI outclasses MiUi. But like I said, MiUi has changed to hyperOS. Look at reviews from MrWhosetheboss or MKBHD. A lot has changed. It has all changed. They've also ditched the square app icon. It's like a fusion of iPhone and Google pixel.

                  vik457, 25 Jan 2025No single cohesive equidepth camera bump, no buy. Also thei... moreDid you know there's a phone called Red magic? It has no camera bumps. Bro, there are over 10 major android phone companies dishing out tons of phones this year. There's plenty of choice. Oh... Last I heard was that the red magic was lacking in zoom capabilities and the main sensor isn't as good as these with camera bumps 😂

                    DLT 501, 25 Jan 2025Bro, you used Mi10. That was like 5 years ago. Xiaomi overh... moreMi10 Ultra came out in 2020, i compared it with the S20 Ultra i had at the time.
                    Both ran just as fast (in bechmarks the S20U had better numbers but whatever). Camera was better in the Xiaomi though

                      DarlingYuck, 25 Jan 2025No 7 OS upgrades = no buy.Are you serious? Who uses a phone beyond 3 years. Max is 4 years. Unless you want to wait after 4 years to buy this phone when it's down to like £400, then use it for 3 years 😂😂

                      Then Get Samsung.

                        DarlingYuck, 25 Jan 2025Another phone with unecessary generic ugly big circle camer... moreThen get a Samsung and quit whining. I'm sure I saw you comment on iPhone 16 line up crying that they look the same. No charger in the box, no buy. You did same 2days ago with the Samsung lineup - you cried about charging speeds, Bluetooth taken off the s-pen and 3 years old design. Bro you already have a phone and I know you won't buy anything this year

                          GAMIR3DH, 25 Jan 2025I tried a Mi10 Ultra before. Xiaomi's UI is really bad... moreAlso there are no more ads on the flagship lineup. Probably on midrange ones.
                          Meanwhile you said power hungry. Take care to study the screen technology Vs Samsung's.
                          And if you want to see Sam for who he is, study their Fold Vs Vivo and Xiaomi fold. See the difference. Like I said, we don't buy Xiaomi over Samsung because of loyalty or cost. They're usually same price. I've seen Apple's offering, same phone, minor changes, low charge speeds, marketing Ai as if it was a hardware. Same with 2days old S25 ultra. Vivo, Oppo, One plus and Xiaomi are cracking the ceiling.
                          Reviews are comparing S25 Ultra and 16 pro max Vs Vivo x200 pro and Xiaomi 15 pro. Imagine what their ultras will be able to accomplish

                            GAMIR3DH, 25 Jan 2025I tried a Mi10 Ultra before. Xiaomi's UI is really bad... moreBro, you used Mi10. That was like 5 years ago. Xiaomi overhauled their UI. It's no longer miui. It's hyper os. You have to really use it to confirm it. I'm a Xiaomi user.
                            Now imagine someone saying that Samsung UI is bad and lags a lot, saying he used S8. Now that's how you sound. Touchwiz was overhauled to One UI. So also MiUi was overhauled to hyperOS.
                            I hope this makes sense. I've come a long way from Techno to HTC to Samsung to Xiaomi. Family now owns Samsung and Apple. So you should know what I mean

                              Xiaomi 15 Ultra ❌
                              Xiaomi 15 camera ✅

                                Wow an ultrawide downgrade. Seems like a missed opportunity. The last Xiaomi 14 Ultra was already balanced hardware wised but seems like this time some bad downgrade is in sue. At least zoom is going up lol.

                                  nice, though I probably won't buy one

                                  hopefully it's weight distribution and in-hand-feel is good

I agree that it is duplicitous to make the same claim for a budget phone. I quite like the circle camera island myself.

                                      Anonymous, 25 Jan 2025It's meant to replicate the lens of a DSLR. Xiaomi ha... moreI am not just talking about the Xiaomi 15 Ultra but ALL of the current phones using a round camera island like that. It is abundant in all device classes and often takes up so much space, without even looking good. I see why Ultra devices may use this because their cameras genuinely need that extra space. For budget flagships and anything below, not really.
