- Excellent Phone !
Its an Ultra device which should be an example for Samsung or Apple how to produce a phone ! For zoom and daylight pictures i use Xiaomi App but for night pictures without zoom i use Gcam. Pictures and Videos are brilliant. Microphone and speaker are the best i ever had. It has bloatware but 95% can be deleted and the rest deactivated. Battery is super good if you dont play games 2 days and if playing 1 day easy. Charging i would love if the put 120W but 90W is still fast enough and faster than Apple/Samsung. The weight is perfectly balanced despite having a big camera bump, you can still balance the phone with one finger in the middle and thats awesome ! I use the phone since Januar 2026 (CN Version) and i am absolute happy

View answers - It's a truly excellent device. I recently had the chance to review it and I'm very pleased with the results.
When it first came out, I was disappointed that it only had three cameras, but the device really appeals to users with its extremely advanced features. It has a rather bland appearance, but it's a true beast; every time I look at it, it reminds me of my old Mi 11 Ultra. Currently, I use the 15 Ultra and 17 Ultra, and I think there are huge differences between them.
Pros- not thick
- beautiful and sexy appearance
- box content is nice
Cons- passive view

A good, fairly powerful smartphone that takes nice photos, although I think it needs to be better understood as the AI still does some strange things. The battery lasts well with my usage; I charge it every other day most of the time, except when I'm literally spending way too much time on the phone. The settings could be made easier; sometimes you type a setting with a keyword into the search bar and it doesn't find it, whereas when you search for it manually, it's there with the same keyword in the settings. The camera package is really gimmicky; I expected better.
Pros- power
- The photos, even though I find them restrictive, are a plus.
Cons- The sound is clearly inferior to my old 11t pro
- the flash
- and the ease of navigating the settings

A top-of-the-range phone with its flaws. What I appreciate most is its camera, which rivals its top competitors, and the screen, with its vibrant colors and excellent visibility even in bright sunlight—a pleasant surprise. I saw some complaints about the battery, which, at 6,000 mAh, seemed a bit lacking, and it's true that it doesn't even last me a day. I know I'm a demanding user because of my job. But a phone costing over €1,000 should offer more than just a 6,000 mAh battery. At the very least, the operating system needs better optimization. We all know Xiaomi's interface, which unfortunately comes with some pre-installed apps, but they're not intrusive and can be easily uninstalled. The problem lies in its optimization and how it falls behind other competitors.

View answers - AutoPerhaps perfection has not been achieved
The phone runs smoothly in everyday use, the camera is good, but the problem arises when you actually use it like a normal person. The focus you get from marketing is disappointing when you actually need it. Perhaps I've been too demanding lately, testing it in situations where maybe no phone performs well at night, but I think it could be better. The selfie camera is literally mid-range; for the price, it's bad. The operating system continues to consume too many resources, and the battery drains very quickly, reaching a minimum of 10 hours, so the 6000mAh capacity isn't that great. I haven't noticed any problems with the screen quality, but in DPI and screen tests, it only shows 1440p.
Pros- Screen
- 100W fast charging
- Connectivity
- Day Cameras
- Bluetooth calls
- Audio
Cons- DPI
- HyperOS
- Battery (Global Version)
- It gets dirty very quickly. Factory protectors.
