It is not just another high -end phone. He Xiaomi 15 Ultra arrives with a clear intention: to position yourself as a referent in mobile photography. You just have to see its cameras module, an inch sensor and its technical configuration to understand that here is seriously played. And, when a mobile promises, we usually submit to demanding evidence, Like this new 24/7 on the Xataka YouTube channel.
“5 days have passed since I am using this phone and I have not stopped taking photos and videos with him. And … wow. The results in automatic are hallucinating me.” That is the first impression of our partner Mario Arroyo, who has incorporated the terminal in his day to day. But, is it still dazzling after so many days? What is left of the ‘Wow’ effect after several weeks? That is what we will try to put on the table.
One of the most powerful video points is how the camera yields beyond the specifications. Because yes, it has impressive data: a 50 MP main sensor, an ultra wide angle of 50 MP, a 50 MP teleobjective and a 200 MP super-telefoto with optical zoom. All this supported for generous focal distances, in one of the most versatile systems we have seen. But the important thing is how it pays in real life.
The protagonist of 24/7 stops in key aspects that make a difference: the Automatic approachfor example, describes it as “very fast framing”, and talks about how well it captures the subjects without the need to activate extra modes. It also highlights the natural blur that is achieved thanks to the depth of field: “The portrait mode is hardly necessary having such good results in automatic.”
As you will see below, this analysis goes beyond the camera. The design is also addressed: the finishing finish, the combination of colors with the aesthetics Leica has its charm, but there is also at least a difficult problem to ignore and several reproaches arise, especially in the software section. “Hyperos, despite its personalization level, includes bloatware and certain debatable decisions,” says Mario.
And of course, the dilemma arrives: is it worth investing in this mobile if what you are looking for is the best camera? Where is the limit between what it offers and what it costs? Is this Xiaomi 15 ultra the new photographic referent of 2025 … or a piece for a very specific audience? Recall that there are many devices that aspire to occupy this throne.
If the camera is what you value most, if you are one of those who take photos every day and you like to get the most out of each shot, this 24/7 can give you just what you need. Give the play to immerse yourself in our most recent publication on the Xataka YouTube channel.
