    Will definitely grab the 15 ultra next year 😊. Hopefully xiaomi follows the trend of true flat displays for their pro/ultra variants next year. Really satisfied with my vanilla xiaomi 14 now

      Agreed. This is the only phone that offers this facility. Why wasn't this explored? With RAW and ND or Polarised filters surely that is a whole other dimension.
      You 'COULD' do another video review on this aspect and really scoop the pool. I don't recall any other reviewer doing an expose on B&W shots quite this good. A filter edition would kill it.

    Iphone fan boy, dosen't use any Android flagship, and don't know how good work, Android and IOS equal for smoothness, animation, lag free... This is not 2013 or 2014 year, when Android gets lots lags, and problems. In 2024 year, Android is more powerfull, better camera, better battery life, better screens, better OS, faster charging, open software fro apk....Android better than IOS, my subject think, have both. IOS is simple and boring, so boring...
