      Actually, the release time is about "back-to-school" time when people buy lots of phone. Android is missing a lot since Qualcomm/Mediatek timed their SOC release after october.

                  My honest optinion.
                  In the whole world there are still lot more people who prefer bigger phones over smaller phones.
                  By a lot more people i am saying 95%.
                  And for the tiny minority its not worth to make exception.
                  Just my opinion no offence here.

                              Comparing Xiaomi 15 Ultra or 16 and 16 pro to Apple is not even comparable because big American are whole china made with inferior specs.
                              They even willing to ask 1300 for a 60 hz scren phone or 1100 for 16e with 6/512GB combo othervise entry level specs.

                                Compared to that Xiaomi is device from far future.
                                Much better cameras all 50 mpix no 12 Mpix like google or Samsung.
                                SiCa 7000 mAh cells along with proper 90-120W charging speeds. No inferior 3900 mAh cell on S25 edge along with 15W charging.
                                Many else features said 1500 Samsung or Google dont have.
                                Like i said its crazy to ask 1500 for a so called flagship with best CPU and GPU but othervise midranger specs while this phone have best of best every single part.
                                Asking 1500 for phone liek this is noormal while others sould cost more than 800.

                                    The size of Mi 6 was perfect for me. I wish there were more compact phones with that size, even half cm makes difference. I don't want Samsung or iPhone.

                                      Ok, but then it would be nice to have someting like Xiaomi 16 SE, a smaller model. Making bigger phones in almost each generation is insane :(
