juan, what do you think of current flagship phones that move back to smaller main sensors (like the xiaomi 14 pro (1/1.31) or honor magic 6 pro (1/1.3) but with variable aperture? as a bokeh junkie i personally don't see a reason to use f4.0 and have to rely on f1.4 to get similar bokeh like the 13pro series or the magic 5 pro. or do i get something wrong?🤔

[@ZeDarkLord]

I really like the Xiaomi 14 and the 14 Ultra, the difference primarily being the telephoto camera and bigger phone. It's good to see tech trickle down in the price ladder.

[@jejunamja]

Thanks for sharing on it and yeah major bummer that’s not coming to the states as I think it would be quite the winner here for many of us who would like a phone that size with a really good camera but what’s the best we got the S 24?

[@kevinpitts3548]

Still have the 13, but i had to switch back to OnePlus due to the lack of band support. It'll work with T-Mobile, but not very well in the country with 60ft pine trees

[@BLAKEEATS1988]

if xiaomi adds 4k30 cinematic mode on the front camera it's an instant buy for me. xiaomi already has 4k60 and 4k30 mode on the ff camera only thing that's missing is the cinematic mode and I'm all in!

[@ahslan7304]

@@SomeGadgetGuy That's absolutely fair. I just have zero confidence the US market will get better...

[@tuunaes]

Well, at least you in US get Snapdragon in Samsungs unlike Europe getting once again force fed second rate Exynos modem... Despite of slightly bigger battery Exynos S24 got 20% worser talk time than S23 in GSMArena's tests. And Techmo channel's side by side tests put it behind SD S24 also in general usage battery life.

[@wiredspeaker5658]

I wouldn't hesitate to rock a Xiaomi over here if the price was right. Yeah you're not getting full 5G or LTE bands but Xiaomi has had very dependable connectivity for me. Our Mi 11 Lite works very well. Now my Realme GT2 Pro definitely not so much. A lot of it is up to US cellular companies recognizing the phones software and Xiaomi is usually on the compatibility lists. But yeah I'm definitely sticking to OnePlus and Moto with their US specific offerings.

[@WendelTC]

I think that having a control center separate from the notifications is a good thing since you have direct access to any of them with just one swipe, depending where you swipe

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

That's what I dont like. If I'm holding a phone in my right hand, the reach to get to the left side is more action than just lazily swiping anywhere on the screen. Then getting the full panel of quick toggles is quicker doing the double swipe than changing directions to a lateral swipe, where if I'm too close to the edge of the screen it also acts as a back button. One simple action twice or two different actions with stricter tolerances for proper activation. Apple's design is simply not as good.

[@mkamal4888]

​@@SomeGadgetGuylol very specific explanation but exactly why i also hate it. The only benefit is quick info of current volume, anything else is just annoyance.

[@user-xr6hb6py9l]

Hardware wise, Xiaomi 14 is clearly better overall than Galaxy S24. + It comes with 256gb base version and not 128(S24), +better cameras overall, +high resolution display, +superior battery life +Faster wired and wireless charging(charger in the box too) +IR Blaster, WIFI 7 and BT5.4 -Miui/HyperOS is terrible android skin for a flagship device. And Xiaomi isnt very quick in terms of software updates and general support. -The other drawback is their pricing. They need to be priced lower to make them more attractive. Xiaomi 14 i think is currently slightly more expensive than Galaxy S24 in Europe. No wonder Apple(huge market)and Samsung, dominate the premium smartphone market. Chinese flagships outside of China make no sense with their pricing.

[@bking82]

With 100 euro it's more expensive, but we are totally discriminate with Exynos for Samsung, Xiaomi come with snapdragon 8 gen3

Thanks for the update, one quick question... If the camera is important for me, but considering the price, should i get 14 or the Ultra one... Thanks in advance ☺️

[@afistfulofpimples1745]

Yes

[@big-gloom]

I used the Xiaomi 13 for a while but I ended up selling it for the S23. Hardware wise it was much better, nicer pictures, longer battery life, faster charging and a display with no color banding (something that somehow no reviewer mentions, Samsung definitely does not have the best screens with 8 vs 12 Bit and no Dolby Vision). But I just thought MiOS was too ugly lol. It's the ios square icon shape and the overly large control center. I can't compromise on having small circle icon shapes with the Whicons icon pack and when using third party launchers to achieve that the gestures don't work. You can change that in the standard OneUi launcher. It's a small thing but if they add that feature to HyperOS I would switch instantly because other than that I noticed nothing bad. Oh and One Hand Operations+ is also something I wouldn't want to live without.

[@ironmangx-1969]

Hello, would you recommend this Xiaomi 14 over the S24 or S23? Thanks. Good content.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Me personally? Because of the cameras, yes. If you need a feature like Dex, then no.

[@ibc14]

I'm using the Xiaomi 14 for a couple of months. For about the same price as the S24 (in the EU), you get a better hardware overall. Has a bit high standby battery drain on the Global rom, but usually Xiaomi does fix this with updates. Camera is ok, better than the vanilla S24 in most cases. Can be inconsistent at times. Too bad that they still advertise the 60mm telephoto as a 75mm one and that it saves cropped 8mp raw files, without having the possibility to change that. Only way to use the full resolution is in auto mode to manually adjust zoom slider to 2.6x which is annoying(or by using gcam). On their official FAQ page it is specified that vanilla 14 has 2.6x optical, but you have to dig for it. At least they could have used the 2.9x lens from the 14pro. Other than that the phone is nice.

[@semirmusic6351]

But does it supports usb power delivery when gaming, if not then that is a big minus!??

[@joshuabergeman354]

I'm more of a software guy than hardware in the sense that I already know that if the software doesn't meet my needs it doesn't matter how good the hardware is. But I'm really tempted to buy a budget xiaomi, maybe a poco or redmi just to see what the software is like before I jump into spending $1,000+

[@alfaindomart1766]

Maybe depends on where you live, but here, Poco and Redmi phones have ads, while the Xiaomi or Mi series are free of them. If you can stomach ads or know how to remove them, they're great devices. But if no, then i recommend the T series (12T, 13T). They're cheaper than the flagship and still very sufficient for most tasks.

[@joshuabergeman354]

@alfaindomart1766 well I'm not really bothered about the ads and whatnot as I'm mostly interested in what the software is like to use. Ideally I would be able to go to a physical store to get that experience. But unfortunately the only way to get hands on a Xiaomi or Vivo is to just buy it. And I don't mind spending $1,000+ but I want to know that I'm going to get on with the software first. Which is why I'm considering a budget Xiaomi.

[@arkhalis3682]

Software isn't really bad. And I'm of the entire opposite stance to yours, I don't care if software is average, I only care about the hardware.

[@joshuabergeman354]

@@arkhalis3682 that's completely valid and it's awesome that we have options that appeal to e everyone. It's also why I wish more of the Chinese brands sold here in the US at physical locations! So I could try them in person because as of now only Huawei has come close to giving me the software experience I'm looking for with the hardware excellence to match, and you know currently that's not an option in the US. But I'm reluctant to spend a lot of money when I don't know if it will meet my peculiar needs for software or not.

Great review Juan. Totally concur the import companies like Xiaomi are advancing all the phone tech while bringing down the prices for this goodness. Samsung and Apple are doing neither.

[@richardparker1338]

There are not "many" users. There are a maximal a couple of reports of reports being repeated over and over.This is huge issue with reviews. Every reviewer watches all the other reviews and simply regurgitates the drivel they have read but not experienced.

[@user-iy6ko1bz4y]

Samsung Dex is really important to me to ever switch sadly. These other brands really need to compete with Samsung in this sector because Samsung has just been riding on their coattails regarding Samsung Dex.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

It's getting to be a higher and higher price to keep Dex. Have you looked at Honor or Moto?

[@arkhalis3682]

I'd take fast charging, a charger in the box, a 1260p LTPO display, a bigger battery, and more RAM, any day of the week lolololol.

[@farishanafiah8461]

​@@arkhalis3682You can have all of that while using the phone as the PC. I myself haven't really touch my Windows laptop a lot now since I started using Desktop Mode on my phones.

[@farishanafiah8461]

That's literally the only reason why I only look at Samsung phone nowadays. Huawei has EMUI Desktop, but the lack of Google Mobile Services can be a deal breaker to most people. Honor has Magic Desktop, but it looks too similar to Huawei's EMUI Desktop. LG did give Screen+, but they have long gone from smartphone business. Motorola has Ready For, but fingers crossed on availability and software support. So really, we don't have much choice for custom Desktop Mode solution.

For me, this makes me happy and sad. I love that some companies are still making a smaller flagship and not skimping in the specs. The cameras are extremely competitive especially when compared to the hand me down cameras on the s24 that haven't seen any serious update in a while. What makes me sad is that in the US, you have to import it and probably not have good support from carriers, if at all. Outside of the silly ui choices and good lock customization, this is exactly what I want in a smart phone. I hope Samsung can feel some heat from this and offer a better package on there standard model. Including other brands as well. Thanks for covering this phone.

@@SomeGadgetGuy Salute

[@MJ-uk6lu]

It's a decent phone overall, but big problem is that it's still Xiaomi. By that I mean no proper software update policy and not much promised in terms of how long it will be supported. IMO you completely underestimate importance of long software updates, because many people who buy expensive phone like that do actually care about longevity and perhaps expect to keep it for like 7-8 years or perhaps even longer. Samsung managed to do that, Apple too, Google not so well (they seemingly have software quality issues often), but Xiaomi is not on the same tier at all. It's a good phone right now and has hardware egde for lower price, all very good, but that really won't matter after 5 years, when Samsung would have all up to date software and this Xiaomi will be somewhat abandoned. And that slight hardware edge won't matter after like 7-8 years. IMO that is main reason why they seemingly pump out great flagships, but people are still somewhat leery of buying them. It would be great to see Xiaomi actually showing that they care about software, because they just haven't really shown that in many years. That's just why Xiaomi feels like cheaper phone company rather than legit Samsung or Apple competitor.

Dude I'm using Android since Android 2.3.

My S20 FE 5G is on Android 13 for reference. And Xiaomi isn't abandoning your phone right away, it'll still get 3-4 years of major Android updates. Given the choice between long time Android OS updates vs much better hardware - I would choose hardware all day.

Don't really get your point on higher prices for Samsung or Apple. This is €1000 for the base 256gb variant and €1,100 for 512 gb version. It's about €100 more expensive than the s24 although it is better than the s24 for cameras anyway and you get 12gb of ram compared to 8gb. Not a cheaper option though

Sure let's completely ignore that Samsung is shizzing their Exynos processors in Non-US countries and also having a smaller battery.

[@eoin4597]

@@DeepteshLovesTECH Not ignoring that. Just commented purely on the price. That's all

There's no such thing as a note 24 😂😂

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Hmmm.. I see squared off corners and an S-Pen... Seems you might have that wrong. There doesn't seem to be an S24 Ultra again this year...

[@osuan9]

buy Xiaomi 14

[@cerbs2g]

As long as they use Mi UI I will not get another.... lets down the hardware

[@uliparedes4877]

Thanks bro,I like xiaomi but looks just same as iPhone 😂😂

[@MJ-uk6lu]

That's kinda the point of Xiaomi. To offer Apple like software experience, but with freedoms of Android.

[@tnunited2436]

​@@MJ-uk6lu💯 agreed

Too small battery, not enough pixel density, not good enough screen resolution of the screen and not enough colors. Just compare that to One Plus 12 and it's not even close and the One plus charge under 30 min, 26.30 min exactly under the best conditions 🤗

[@SumoTheUltimateTraveller]

Of course with a shitty camera setup

[@Alin-yb1zl]

😂 sure you will see pixel density....😂

[@ttube111]

And see the billions of colour pixels lol​@@Alin-yb1zl

Xiaomi should replace the Google dialer to MIUI dialer.
