Thank goodness i switched from 14T to Iqoo Neo 10, the only thing i miss abt 14T is the better camera (although not significant). now looking at 15T, its a joke, Realme GT 7T is much better value now and xiaomi seems to forgot the recent higher capacity battery trend which for me is an obvious deal breaker. If they keep this path, 16T (or 17T) would be crushed by the the better value phones from Iqoo, Vivo, Realme, Motorola, or the itel, infinix, tecno family.

    Design👎
    They should have keep dimensions like 14T👍

      It's a shame the non-Pro Xiaomi T models have stagnated.

      The 13T was a big change (camera-wise) from the 12T, but ever since that model, the 14T and 15T aren't that much different save for the newer SoC.

      I hope they upgrade the ultrawide, selfie, or telephoto next time.

        "Finally, Xiaomi touts its new Astral Communication, based on the Dimensity silicon inside the 15T series. It features Xiaomi Offline Communication, which debuts on the 15T models, and allows them to talk to each other without the need for a cellular or Wi-Fi connection. Two 15T's will be able to talk at distances up to 1.3km, two 15T Pros as far as 1.9km. It's not clear just yet how Xiaomi and MediaTek have achieved this, and we are yet to give the feature a proper test."

        At the launch of vivo x200
        Vivo also advertise this feature
        If you still have the x200 in you're lab
        Please test if the vivo and xiaomi "offline walkie talkie" were compatible

          Want to read the 15T Pro Review...please compare it then to the 14T Pro from last year @GSMArena. The same with the 14T vs. 15T would be nice - especially camera 1:1 comparsion, so if it's worth to upgrade - or not.

              Why are phones getting bigger, is it because people like big phones or is it no choice but big phones, so people buy ?

                  That's why I always choose IPS LCD display technology.

What exactly can you do with a flagship phone that you can't do with a budget phone? Budget phones have at least 90% of the functionality of a flagship phone. And most budget phones still have a headphone jack and sd card slot which are sadly missing on medium range/flagship phones.

                                      every phone looks like an iPhone this year , thats innovation for you.

                                        That's an example on how Chinese brands can't make sub flagship phones properly. Gorilla glass 7i is a glass for $250-300 phones. Galaxy S24/S25 FE has Victus.
