Weekly poll results: the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is a hot camera flagship, though a pricey one

09 March 2025
Not that it's surprising that cutting edge camera hardware costs a lot - it's what separates the good from the great these days.

Being an avid shooter myse... more"i want to see 3x 1.0"/CX Size Sensors, for all cams - Ultrawide, normal & Tele lenses...simply, at least. :-) And then, put the current 200 MP (1/1.4") Telecamera als 4. Camera module extra into it. Now *that* would being a cool camera setup"

                          In may opinion, this would be nearly impossible due to the sheer size of the lenses needed for something like that.
                          A much more realistic and feasible setup would be 3 x 1/1.4", ideally with 13mm, 30mm and 90mm equivalent focal length. These lenses would probably need to be retractable in order to reduce camera ring protrusion.

                            So, we need a head to head comparison between the vivo x200 pro and the xiaomi 15 ultra in order to answer the following three main questions:

                            1.Does the larger main sensor and the additional medium range tele in the 15u actually translate into a real world advantage in terms of image quality, when compared with the x200 pro?

                            2. Are there any differences in terms of overheating and battery drain between those two devices when shooting long videos or plenty of photos?

                            3. Is it true that the Xiaomi is inferior with regards to video quality and stabilization but provides a more natural /less processed rendering?

                              They reduced the 6000 mAh battery to just 5410 mAh for the global market. And increased the price. The global market should finally start boycotting this kind of blatant greed.

                                id go with samsung instead, not for this one for this price. If leica is still with huawei and google , then it would be worth the high price but not with xiaomi..

                                    Iphone pro max

                                    - costs more to be made than mi ultra
                                    - assembled in China like mi ultra
                                    - sold in China for much higher price than mi ultra

                                    Still cheaper than mi ultra in Europe, also its price does not increase 60-70% compared to price in China.

                                      Should not have same price.

                                      No excuse. Xiaomi greed adds €350-400 to european variant .
                                      But to you and few other here is VAT.
                                      When it is not

                                        This Ultra will be released in Indonesia.. the competition is very strong here all Chinese flagships are here except OnePlus.
