Xiaomi 14 tends to overexpose things when there's a bright light source which can be solved by lowering the exposure. Overall it's a nice all rounder device
Thankyou for yet another informative video Jermaine ... I'm very happy with my xiaomi 14 , the little big phone with lots of features . And a great camera , and your opinions helped me decide to buy it . Cheers
@@nielsjunker1487 Battery life is decent, but not amazing. I can make it till the end of the day, but nothing more then that, and if I use it a lot for photography it won't make it till the end of the day

It was interesting; I didn't expect 14 with such a nice performance👍, although the 14 ultra is in a different level, It seems 14 ultra is much better than my phone 11 ultra in many aspects by far, for example on night mode 11 ultra not as detailed as 14 ultra, or in videography, 11 ultra is too shaky even when steady pro is on but in this video 14 ultra filming smoothly on 4 lenses, I'm waiting impatiently for that comparison to see how they play side by side 😍
Mi11 Ultra you mean 14 right? or^^? for the 14 it is a solid one that also needs updates (sharpening mostly and exposure in some cases) And yes the 11 ultra will come ^^ hopefully thursday I can go to the location I need to be at for it.
Thank you😍, My phone is mi 11 ultra, I meant as I've whatched your videos about 14 ultra so far it seems it has a better performance as apposed to 11 ultra, depend on your upcoming video If my phone is still almost as good as 14 ultra, I won't replace it.
Now from what i have HEARD is that it is the 15 everyone is waiting for, unsure what kind of stuff they are planning with it, but hearing a lot of buzz about that!
Did they change the green color of the xiaomi 14 recently ? I bought one and the green is really quite faint compared to the one you are showcasing. Sorry bout my question having that nothing to do with the content of your video, but i was wondering.
Honestly when you take in consideration pricey of these phones I don't think the difference justify it. In my amateur eyes yes I see differences but not that big honestly. I think for the price 14 is Def worth it. I'm planning on getting one, even tho I have s24 ultra but I think it's too big and it oversharpen pictures to the point where it doesn't look realistic. What's ur thoughts on it? BTW amazing video
Shots on the sands and rocks shows the Ultra is really an excellent smartphone camera. In casual shooting, however, the PQ difference is not so significant unless you really look for it. Great comparison👍
Which phone do you prefer for photo/videography under 700 dollars? I'm still looking around for a 'not too big' phone and have the one of the best camera and chipset.
What do you think of the size of the Xiaomi 13 Pro? Because that is an excellent phone for photography! If you want the smaller one then I would advice the 14 :)
@@Speerrow03 Oh I by a decent amount prefer the 13 Pro over the 14, and that is mainly because sharpening that is more on the 14, allowing a more natural feel on the 13 pro :) I have some vids on the 13 Pro including after a year ^^ And for the Xiaomi 13 Pro, kinda wish I still had it, but with my channel size and not recieving the 14 Ultra I had to trade it in to get the 14 Ultra
Sorry for this late comment. But I've been hearing a lot of fuss about the mi 14's telephoto being 2.6x in reality. And it's actually not a 3.2x lens. Could you please clear it up.
The 14 Ultra color rendering appeals to me a lot! It feels so moody and organic. I am really getting tired of hdr-focused processing we get from the samsungs the iphones and the pixels
Same man! Same! I am so done with the over processed HDR look! Xiaomi isn't perfect this year and they have stuff they need to figure out, but it is much nicer to look at then Samsung and so on.
@@ThroughJermainesLens I'm amazed by that. Whatever, it's always gonna be way better to use a dedicated Camera. These Smartphones that include these improvements are extremely expensive, and only good by Smartphone standards.
@@spirittravels. The problem with smartphones is that even more so these days it can lead to overprocessing, they lean more to using that then to relay on the hardware. This can destroy an image and the feel of it. A dedicated camera has that far less.
How comfortable is the ultra to hold? Considering you might have to hold it a lot… And what about when you use the photography kit? I would very much appreciate your opinion 🎉
I think the photography kit is nice! That being said it is a bit more bulky if you have that ND filter ring on there, but of course it does give that option for an NDA filter, and taking pictures are nicer :)
Ik moet zeggen: het is geen verschil van dag en nacht. Misschien komt het door onrealistische verwachtingen van de Ultra (dat ding wordt zwaar gehyped, maar het is tenslotte geen Leica Q3 of zo) of komt het doordat de 14 best mooie plaatjes schiet. Overall prefereer ik de Ultra, die volgens mij ook wat leuker in gebruik is vanwege dingen als variabel diafragma.
Dat is waar ik ook op doel als je het als point en shoot gebruikt, dan is het verschil niet enorm, kleine detail verschil met de Ultra betere details, en meer natuurlijke diepte. maar het verschil is vooral als js het gebruikt zoals hij gebruikt moet worden als je het maximale eruit wilt halen, bijvoorbeeld Pro mode, de ND filter erop gooien voor langere exposure shots in combinatie met de variable aperture, beter RAW en natuurlijk de extra sensor optie. maar als je het echt als een point en shoot gebruikt dan is de 14 gewoon goed te vergelijken.
The video was very useful and practical. I had a question. In my country, the price of the Chinese version (Xiaomi 14) is much lower than the global version, and I intend to buy the Chinese version. Is there a difference in the quality of photography between the global and Chinese versions?
@@jzhzjzndnxsb4070 difference in camera quality probably not, same software and hardware, but the chinese version might have issues with google auto, and also make sure you check the bands the phone supports and your provider to see if you can use it
@@ThroughJermainesLens Thank you very much for your reply. Yes, it also supports Google services and there is no problem. I asked the seller and they said that the only difference is in the version and there will be no other difference.
it seems to be me that most of the photos from mi 14 are just over-exposed when compared to the ultra, could the reduction in exposure result in a more comparable quality?
Does anyone have problems with camera fogging (going from warm to cold or vice versa)? I'm also interested in the battery life (if someone uses 2 SIM cards, a little playing games, a little photography, using it for surfing the Internet and social networks / applications, while the mobile Internet is turned on non-stop)?
@@ThroughJermainesLens How long does the battery last for you with what usage (do you have your mobile phone turned on non-stop, do you play games...)? For some, it is average that it lasts from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., for some it is a little.
Own a 14.. Manufactured in October 2023. Had to reset camera settings to default... and everything was all good It's never showed up again... It was a hot topic on Reddit... Those with 2024 manufacturing date had hard luck around the default settings trick...
Great video. I rank the 14 Ultra as 3. and 14 normal as 6. The 14 Ultra is slightly better in terms of video recording thanks to the better stabilisation larger main camera sensor that gives more bokeh and especially at night works a bit better. Front Camera is better on the 14 however. I think the 14 Ultra needs some software updates there. Interesting are portraits because apart from the better software controls on the 14 Ultra where I prefer the direct lense selection without going into a submenu the 14 now (at least on the chinese variant I have) got the update including master and leica modes.
Thank you :) And you rank the 14 ultra lower? And I do agree it needs updates, the biggest one for me is the sharpening and balance. I feel like sharpening is inconsistent and sometimes it can be way too much and destroy images, the 13 pro NAILED the sharpening where images looked stellar in terms of that!
@@ThroughJermainesLens No the 14 Ultra is ranked just behind the Vivo X100 Pro and Oppo Find X7 Ultra. Sharpening is an issue yeah. I think Xiaomi still has to find their balance. The newly introduced Master and Leica modes for portraits also look so similiar even though the Master one should apply more sharpening and "AI optimized" face algorithms. Its just marketing bla bla currently. You are better off with just using the 3.2x lense on both without any portrait mode.
@@lltechview ohhhh so, yeah I haven't used the Oppo nor the Vivo, trust me I tried reaching out to them, but so far I haven't been succesful and the Vivo contact simply said: no units :( And more sharpening is not what we want, and I often have AI off, maybe only if I test like a x30 zoom and see what it does. I just wish they didn't do this sharpening, like that is my biggest gripe at the moment for the Xiaomi 14 and 14 Ultra.
@@ThroughJermainesLens Yeah the sharpening is something that I think should be optional. So a configurable option somewhere in settings. Vivo offers such things. They even have an option to turn off noise reduction for video which is pretty handy sometimes. Getting test devices from Oppo and Vivo is hard for sure. I bought those two phones with my own money to be able to test them.
New Subscriber! Can I ask if you buy phones that is only exclusively released on china or like that is not globally release? Phones like Realme GT Neo 5 (GT3 on Global) or other brands like Iqoo? Deym, you are the only RUclipsr I found that do some literal camera testing on a phone, other just do shot and go, not its full capabilities.
I am not 100% sure, but do you mean if you can fully use the phone? Like 5G and so on? best way to know that is to know what phone you are getting and then what bands it's support and then what your country or provider has as bands. and I think in some cases google car play might not work
@@ThroughJermainesLens Like do you test phones that can only be bought on China? Or just phones that is available on your place? I am wondering if will try to test those phones (phones that can only be bought in china). Like you are the only RUclipsr that test phone's camera if it is good or not.
No, I only have had phones that are global versions in terms of software. And sometimes I get phones send over, for instance the Xiaomi 14 was send over, but it is the global version. The 14 Ultra I purchased myself. I was thinking about getting the X100 pro, but my channel isn't big enough to justify those prices that keep going out hahaha.
My daughter is 10years old and is into athletics.So I need a phone to shoot her athletic events.I am looking for a phone mainly for video recording with better zoom.Which one is better for tht?
Hi, after a long time, shall I ask you, hd you encountered fogging on the main lens? Because, it's only hardly a month and it's rainy season here after the summers and to my surprise my Xiaomi 14 has started fogging up. It was fine during the hot days but now as soon I start the camera for some video or so and go outside it immediately fogs up Do you have any idea for a permanent solution for this. Thank you...
So far i haven't, sorry for your issues:( that sucks:( and because i have no experience with it sadly i don't know a fix, there might be some on the xiaomi forum?
@@ThroughJermainesLens okay thanks, I'll try my luck in Xiaomi forums, but do update us if you find any permanent solution. Thank you so much for the reply.
@@amllemansRemove your sim tray, start recording an 8K video for 1 hour and then the moisture will evaporate from the phone and now put back the sim tray, voila... Your fogging issues are gone.
@@abishek4300 hi, thanks for that, but i did already try recording 8k videos and later when closed the sim tray. Next time, if i come across a rainy afternoon time and start something related to high processing demand from the camera, the issue again comes. Yesterday, i had put the phone in a tight box full of silica gel and left it overnight. Today by noon I checked, all the fog was gone, so I took to check outside. As soon i went out to the garden under a tree shade, started 8k, the fog started showing up little by little.
mmmm so I would say the xiaomi 14 Ultra, 8.5, the xiaomi 14 a mmmm 7.5? if I would scale it and say the ultra is the best and the benchmark number (so a 10) the 14 would be like a 8
Oh for me it would be the Xiaomi, it has more of a photography feel. BUT!!!! when it comes to quick shots, and ease of use I would say the pixel, so it depends on what you find important :)
@@ThroughJermainesLens Thanks for the quick reply! I can absolutely understand. Somehow I like the pixel photos the most. But I'm not a good photographer either. The photos are always good.
I had the pixel 7 Pro and i now have the xiaomi 14 ... And i prefer the xiaomi photos , not nearly as much contrast in tricky situations , and less of an hdr look . And there's many other benefits , fast charging , stays cooler etc etc . But this is my opinion . Cheers
Sono d'accordo, ma nei confronti spesso mi attengo a ciò che fa il telefono in auto perché è il modo più giusto per confrontare tra i 2, e molte persone non lo userebbero come tale, lo credono nell'hype. Detto questo, sto lavorando sul video stand alone 14 Ultra, utilizzando la modalità pro, utilizzando Master Cinema e utilizzando anche un po' di registrazione LOG.
@@samern7 ok, then do NOT go for iPhone, i mean they are decent, but understanding photography is low on their phones. Do you normally shoot with a proper camera? And are you think about the 14 because of the compact size?
I am asking because I think over the 14 I would pick the Xiaomi 13 Pro, it is less sharp, so feels more natural, and here in the Netherlands you have some good second hand options as well via Marktplaats and so on, so maybe some nice options where you are from with that 13 Pro. But of course that is a bit bigger phone.
You are right, I prefer a compact phone because actually I have a Honor 70 and to me I feel a very big phone... The battery is good, but the camera is pretty bad... Actually I have a Olympus OMD-10 Mark II and I am familiarized with the terms of photography. I always think that iPhone have the better quality, specially for social media, but this Xiaomi 14 and Leica lens catch my attention... And I never have iPhone before!
People not shooting raw absolutely can't tell difference between photos from this phone and a 4 year old phone. It's the same old high radius, oversharpened shit. These reviews should include RAW photos to give a complete picture and also consider the possibility of actual photographers watching this review.
I will be doing that on the full review of the Ultra, but i need to see in my editing how I can include it because .DNG isn't working on my editing program.
if you like brighter images there is this thing called "brightness" in the built in editing, you can go with the 14 ultra and do just that with better detail in your images than the 14
Great video i have to say i like the ultra more keep at it 😀 i hope this helps a bit for the trips 😊
Awww thanks Michael as always!!!!

Oh then you will be perfectly fine with a pixel ^^
I had the pixel 7 Pro and i now have the xiaomi 14 ... And i prefer the xiaomi photos , not nearly as much contrast in tricky situations , and less of an hdr look . And there's many other benefits , fast charging , stays cooler etc etc . But this is my opinion . Cheers
@@MrKrueger88 hi how is battery life on your Xiaomi 14?
You have the 14 Ultra global right?
And what other "ultra/pro" phones do you have right now?
Correct :) And Mi11 Ultra xD sadly no other top pro's or anything at the moment :)
@@ThroughJermainesLens Trade the 14U for my X100 Pro then :D
mmmmm NO hahaha
Is xiaomi 14 ultra your daily driver rn?
Yes ;)
Lo xiaomi 14 ultra non va usato in automatico,ma in modalità pro scattando in raw,è questa la modalità giusta,e il motivo,per cui andrebbe comprato
Sono d'accordo, ma nei confronti spesso mi attengo a ciò che fa il telefono in auto perché è il modo più giusto per confrontare tra i 2, e molte persone non lo userebbero come tale, lo credono nell'hype. Detto questo, sto lavorando sul video stand alone 14 Ultra, utilizzando la modalità pro, utilizzando Master Cinema e utilizzando anche un po' di registrazione LOG.
Finally what is the best 14 or ultRa
neither both have lens fogging
Sir can u compare xiaomi 14 ultra vs xiaomi 13 pro
Wich one do you prefer between Xiaomi 14 512GB VS iPhone 15 128GB?
Mmmmm Do you care about photography?
@@ThroughJermainesLens Yes, I do! For me it is the most important...
@@samern7 ok, then do NOT go for iPhone, i mean they are decent, but understanding photography is low on their phones. Do you normally shoot with a proper camera? And are you think about the 14 because of the compact size?
I am asking because I think over the 14 I would pick the Xiaomi 13 Pro, it is less sharp, so feels more natural, and here in the Netherlands you have some good second hand options as well via Marktplaats and so on, so maybe some nice options where you are from with that 13 Pro. But of course that is a bit bigger phone.
You are right, I prefer a compact phone because actually I have a Honor 70 and to me I feel a very big phone... The battery is good, but the camera is pretty bad...
Actually I have a Olympus OMD-10 Mark II and I am familiarized with the terms of photography. I always think that iPhone have the better quality, specially for social media, but this Xiaomi 14 and Leica lens catch my attention...
And I never have iPhone before!
Wow that lens is massive, would that phone even fit in a pocket 😂. Great video Jermaine 💯
hahahaah yes it fits perfectly fine xD and thank you! ^^
can u compare mi14 ultra vs mi11 ultra?
Will come:)
People not shooting raw absolutely can't tell difference between photos from this phone and a 4 year old phone.
It's the same old high radius, oversharpened shit.
These reviews should include RAW photos to give a complete picture and also consider the possibility of actual photographers watching this review.
I will be doing that on the full review of the Ultra, but i need to see in my editing how I can include it because .DNG isn't working on my editing program.
I'll go with the 14 for the main camera
if you like brighter images there is this thing called "brightness" in the built in editing, you can go with the 14 ultra and do just that with better detail in your images than the 14
how can I fix this? when I picture a paper with lots of writings its not clear, like the top is blur and bottom
You mean when you zoom in?
Take a 50mp shot possibly?
What happened to Jermaine? Why is his father in this video??? 😮
🤣🤣🤣🤣 so not a fan of the hat? 🤣🤣🤣 Kinda was prepping vid and just happen to have it on 🤣
Why i feel 14 ultra is edited picture not real
I don't know?
the 14ultra lacks dynamic range .. its way too contrasty and thats not what your eyes sees.
14 look better
