Weekly poll: is getting the Xiaomi 15 Ultra worth it?

01 March 2025
It has one of the best smartphone cameras that we've seen yet and it's a great all-round flagship too, but it's not cheap.

    It may have the best hardware combo of the year so far, and possibly so for a true global release, but the software just doesn't seem up to snuff. HyperOS still suffers from unsteady battery life and delayed notifications, just am not sure because of those things. Hardware is amazing though, can't deny that.

      NeverPayOver1000eur, 01 Mar 2025It's fine if you don't want to pay too much but i... moreAround 20% tax in the EU as VAT is the only tax on phones. That is exactly the same though for all phones, Chinese, South Korean or American. Your 50% is ridiculous. Clearly you haven't a clue on taxes. Also, the only brand with sanctions is Huawei (which I disagree with) but there are no sanctions on the other Chinese smartphone brands

          hyperos= no thanks, even though it seems it has a flat screen and even if it had a 3.5mm and an sd slot.

            Hanif Fikri, 01 Mar 2025Yes only if the battery endurance was at least 13hrs+GSMArena already tested it. It's 16:13.

              Anonymous, 01 Mar 2025Better than the OnePlus 13. Better than the S25 Ultra. B... moreThe Oneplus 13 and OPPO find x8 pro are not it's real competitors. They are far cheaper phones, especially the Oneplus 13. The direct competition will be the Oppo Find x8 ultra and Vivo x200 ultra as they will probably be the same price

                DenaMo, 01 Mar 2025Is getting the Xiaomi 15 Ultra worth it? Great phone, proba... moreIt's fine if you don't want to pay too much but it's only $870 in China. Not much more than your cut-off price for arguably the best phone on the market right now. The main takeaway here is that the prices people pay in the EU/West are an absolutely rip-off. Uncle Sam and the EU are laughing all the way to the bank taking almost 50% of the cost of these phones in Western taxes. Whilst still putting pressure on China in other economical areas (sanctions and blocks). Shows really how disgusting EU and USA are.

                  Hanif Fikri, 01 Mar 2025Yes only if the battery endurance was at least 13hrs+Will surely be over 13+ hours on the rating gsmarena use

                    Is getting the Xiaomi 15 Ultra worth it? Great phone, probably best on the market, but no. Not just this one, it's pointless for me to pay more than 500 euros for any phone. I do street photography, but for that I have a compact camera that is countless times better in quality than any smartphone created so far and in the future.

                      Yes only if the battery endurance was at least 13hrs+

                        This post lists the X200 Ultra sensor but no one knows what that is yet. Then it shows the X200 Pro. So there's an error here in this post.

                          Better than the OnePlus 13.
                          Better than the S25 Ultra.
                          Better than the Oppo Find X8 Pro.
                          Better than Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max.

                          Yes, yes, yes!
