Xiaomi 15 Ultra review: ugly phone, beautiful camera

Summary

Nutrition label

70% Informative

Xiaomi 's new 15 Ultra has a 4.3x periscope lens, which uses a 200 -megapixel 1/1.4-inch -type sensor and a fast f/2.6 aperture.

In good lighting, you’ll get beautiful, natural shots at up to 10x , with decent results at 30x .

The main camera uses the same one-inch type Sony LYT-900 sensor as last year , but Xiaomi has ditched the variable aperture in favor of a fixed f/163 approach.

Other lenses are the most forgettable: they’re getting getting ultrawraw, but they're clearly not.

The best and worst things about the Xiaomi 15 Ultra come down to its camera.

The biggest complaint is that it's not that different from last year’s .

The software is where you’ll find downsides.

HyperOS shares annoyances in common with other takes on Android from Chinese OEMs.
