[@justneoh8253]

Single most important trick/tip I gathered from Xiaomi 13 Ultra review so far: Use Leica authentic when shooting in good light, but switch to Leica vibrant when in low light. This will get you the best picture / film.

[@wasiahmed1547]

Apple fan boyz wont submit it but It's true that Xiaomi is ahead of iphone in the camera department right now...

[@andyH_England]

Yes, iPhone 15PM needs to step up its game to match or better Xiaomi. The global Xiaomi will arrive a few months before the iPhone so the 15PM is its rival.

[@notlahaan]

Seems like every big Chinese player is beating Samsung, Sony & iPhone these days. (X90 Pro, X6 Pro, 13 Pro/Ultra)

[@oleksii.lopasov]

@@andyH_England compared to iPhone Xiaomi will definitely fail on the global market at least because of overprice. iPhone is going to be cheaper and everyone can say it’s more popular in high-end segment. But I agree this year Xiaomi rocks in terms of camera quality.

[@kaungmyatsan6478]

​@@oleksii.lopasovbro xiaomi is way cheaper than iphone in my country iphones are overpriced and repair costs are about the double of the xiaomi devices

[@johnreibejarin3790]

It took them like 1 inch sensors to get to their level but still not enough because they're puting too much efforts on the rear camera and not being versatile. Apple and samsung are more flexible and more usable with their cameras being consistently good both front and back. Not having 4k 60fps on the front cam is a big no no I guess

[@jonathan-xu2932]

[@dynamicvibe4248]

I think for rear cam shootout the Xiaomi 13 Ultra won, for videos, they kind of neck and neck but for quality; the iPhone 14 Pro won. And selfies, i think the iPhone 14 Pro is more consistent as it has AF but the colours I like are, on the Xiaomi 13 Ultra (in Authentic Mode). I hope you'll compare the 1-inch sensors flagships: Xiaomi 13 Ultra vs Xiaomi 13 Pro (The most interesting one) vs Oppo Find X6 Pro vs Vivo X90 Pro Plus.

[@danielsin]

I will get to those comparisons soon

[@dynamicvibe4248]

Thank you. 😊

[@multireel7590]

Good overview! I would like to add that the iPhone does some pretty heavy sharpening/processing on all of it's photo's. Look around on the internet and you will see plenty of complaints about that. The Xiaomi 13 Ultra and Pro are much more natural. Once you know what excessive sharpening/processing looks like, you can't un-see it anymore. It's refreshing to see Xiaomi actually making a good decision here!

[@kapturelab]

Well said.

For sure. Definitely gonna do a few more comparisons so I can get more familiar with the camera before doing it.

[@rolins3279]

This Xiaomi 13 Ultra with a selfie camera capable of filming even in FHD/60 stabilized with HDR, would have been the ultimate photo-Phone. Failing to have 4k selfie, Chinese manufacturers should at least make this effort.

[@shrees7560]

It can shoot FHD 60

[@rolins3279]

@@shrees7560 Yes but without automatic HDR 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@notlahaan]

Pretty strange indeed - especially when you consider that selfie "culture" is massive in China. Do people just not care there? Huawei was the only Chinese manufacturer who put effort into the selfie camera - purely due to the fact that they were (at the time) selling to NA & EU.

Xiaomi is definitely more point and shoot while iPhone is the typical smartphone look. Tbh only difference is the nights which is dark but clean on Xiaomi and bright but noisy for iPhone. Otherwise most of the time the differences between the two is pretty standard and if you don't pixel peep you probably won't notice the majority of the shots. I'd say both will grant you similar results regardless of which phone you choose.

[@danielsin]

Yup. Comes down to what you really prefer.

[@toxomanrod]

I've been rocking the Mi Ultra for a few generations now, you're basically right when it comes to photos. I choose the Xiaomi for video, the quality looks nearly DSLR for many cases. I have sample footage on my channel

Great review!!! Thank you! That’s exactly the information I wanted to see. Really appreciate you doing the portrait example. I’d love to see sport photos and how they capture movement, as well as some group photos to show how the background blur works when you have multiple people in the frame

[@notlahaan]

the image(s) @ 2:11 are brilliant - that's the reason why I love this new take by Xiaomi on processing so much. Feel like Vivo is a bit superior in lowlight though. Still see some sharpening defects on the Xiaomi in that case. If you want the standard smartphone over sharpened look, X6 Pro seems to be the goat right now (aka people who don't care about photogenic images and want to snapshot of whatever they're shooting)

[@سفيان.شوماري]

Yeah..i own vivo and the vivo is slightly better u low light vs Xiaomi 13 ultra.. but in day light, imo, xiamoni edges the Vivo slightly a bit

[@hussainmk1119]

Xaiomi winners 🏆

[@ICEMANZIDANE]

1-2 years ago the iPhone's camera system was superior to most other phones out there, now the tables have turned. The S23 Ultra and also the Xiaomi 13 Ultra are both superior to the latest Apple has to offer. Ofcourse each phone has some negatives but if you take everything into consideration, then its clear that the two mentioned phones are currently the best on the market when it comes to camera setups. For the last 2 years there is a negative trend for the iphones, they are always way too (!) oversharpened and sometimes too flat. Especially the sharpening is a big issue! I remember when cheap china phones did that, but apple still does it heavily and you can immediately tell which one is the iPhone picture. But everything aside, people too often forget the Xperia 1 iV/Xperia Pro, while i said that the S23U and X13U are the best, i didnt take the Sony into consideration. Its obviously the phone from last year but if you want a real photography phone then you should pick the Sony, it also does beautifully smooth 4k/120 hz and no sharpening bs at all.

[@danielsin]

I hope one day I can test out Sony’s phone cameras!

[@AlexMkd1984]

iphone never had good camera wht you talking 😂

[@ddemonology]

I think they are equal, no terrible differences.

[@sethcashman1011]

Yeah, I don't see any major differences at all. I thought this would be a landslide for the Xiaomi.

[@MaratSTI]

Xiaomi's photo are greatly more realistic, less digitised. Iphone have a more plastic photos, not so natural then Xiaomi. Iphone making a photos more beauty for a first look, but not natural. Xiaomi's more closer for the regular compact camera.

[@justbegula]

6:04 - 6:31 Daniel, you accidentally wrote "Seflies" instead of "Selfies". Not a huge mistake, just wanted to point it out. Besides that, what an amazing video! Really shows how good the Xiaomi is. 1080p60fps on the front camera is not a deal-breaker for me, as I've probably never used selfie video.

[@danielsin]

Oops lol. Definitely a nice addition if the front is 4K since I’m used to Samsung and Apple having it

[@michaelofori3428]

Xiaomi is bomb

[@usmanmadid]

take note Iphone 14 Pro is doubled price of xiaomi if xiaomi will be same price of iphone then xiaomi will be double performancee x2 better than iphone so I think xiaomi 13 ultra handled everything the budget the camera the performance the design the batt capacity everything is perfect so never risk on iphone unless you're rich not minding money and super focused on camera then it's your choice

[@lmiller1528]

Why would you choose to take pictures with Leica Authentic in low light and then complain about HDR performance, when Leica Vibrant has much better HDR performance and much closer color reproduction compared to how it was on the 13 Pro?

Not complaining. Already mentioned how it’s darker in the beginning and letting people know the difference. I still prefer the Leica Authentic colors.

[@danielsin]

I haven’t tried Honor’s latest phones. But for photography, definitely Oppo or Xiaomi. I prefer xiaomi for the Leica colors. But the Oppo find x6 pro has bigger sensors for the ultra wide and telephoto

[@pmcpfr]

The Iphone it's so much better

[@nemakis]

I think sometimes the xiaomi doesn't aim properly with the focus.

[@danielsin]

It is harder to get everything you want in focus since I’m just shooting auto without tapping to focus. If I were to tap on the screen it should be fine. Since bigger sensors can create more depth of field, the lesser range will be in focus.

[@rjrex8]

Xiaomi quality 💙

[@ianfuhr8905]

Idk why but apple cameras are always superior

[@_noen_3806]

It's because of the post processing, but if you take a 13 ultra photo and edit it like a photographer does, it's usually better, the iPhone is better for someone who doesn't know much about photography and just goes around take pictures, and 13 ultra is better If you want something more professional, it just requires advanced knowledge

[@dalileddineslimani6399]

I like your explanation of each phone strong points and weak points in each lense of both phones. But you're totally wrong 4k selfie is not available on oppo find x6 pro the first phone on dxomark and it's even better than honor magic 5 pro Also vivo x90 pro + this year doesn't have 4k selfie camera. To me i'm not an enthusiast of selfie video while most social media apps doesn't even support 4k why should i think about it no matter resolution you upload on insta or facebook it will be uploaded as 1080 p. So i don't see any need of it it's not an excuse for these companies it's the opposite that's a shame but in same time it's not so necessary at all. But people are different in their needs and their priorities. To me i can see that xiaomi is working so hard with giant german of optics and camera not just a trade mark you put it on your phone for marketing and to impress prople to buy thr phone at all they're really trying so hard to benefit from their cooperation with leica im terms of lenses quality and leica color science i noticed that xiaomi since 12 s ultra are taking another way of smartphones photography they want to give us multiple options of colors look and also they want to focus on the pictures to be natural as far as they can go even if it looks dark and contains a lot of shadows that what gives the real vibr to the image it's not over processed or too bright or too dark they just try to give the picture and the moment what it deserves. Especially at night you can notice it since 12 s ultra xiaomi are running away from what the others do bright images like you're in afternoon not at night it's obvious that xiaomi wants to keep the vibe of darkness and night without any big sacrifices like less noise and more details and sharpness and i'm really surprised with the video quality they all say that iphone since many years agao is king of video but what i can see from last devices 13 pro and ultra made a big jump over IPhone in terms of quality sharpness natural colors and man what a stability we saw in this 13 ultra it's rock solid like a gimble or go pro camera it's amazing i hope xiaomi add action mode with 2k and i love the fact that that xiaomi can shoot 8k 25 fps through all lenses that's amazing. And i'm sure with few updates they'll fix those tiny details of face detection sometimes and they'll be prefect device in 2023 in camera department. Before i forget i'm really happy xiaomi heard the critics about the quality of portrait photos of xiaomi and they added and 3.2 x telephoto for portrait photos that's really great + 3.2 usb they added it's something really good for transferring data and receiving data with 13 ultra. Also imx 858 gave a lot of quality and details to the ultra wide pictures + zoom photos are amazing also the imx 858 made a big impact in terms of ultrawide videos and zoom in video with same colors and same details

[@manug089]

What was good about Xiaomi was the quality/price ratio. Now the quality has gone down and the prices have gone up...

[@isaquesperandio162]

Incredible as it may seem, despite Xiaomi's amazing hardware, I found the iphone better overall, but of course in low light I believe these devices with large sensors will have an advantage over the iphone and s23u. And speaking of him, I have good news for you... I think that problem with the focus on the s23u when using the timer to fade the portrait photo has been solved... too bad the Samsung photos can't extract the same level of detail of competitors in portrait mode.

[@Tamayo.Sama2023]

Xiaomi's photo and video looks like came from dslr camera 👀
