Xiaomi 14 Ultra | Honest English Review | Geek Unplugged

Is this the best mobile camera in the world? Find out after I bought the Xiaomi 14 Ultra for myself. What's it like out of the box and what does the Leica co-engineering bring?
Never gifted, always purchased, a quick, rough and honest look at the Xiaomi 14 Ultra smartphone. Filmed in July 2024 (Canary Islands, Europe, in English), featuring Europe/UK edition, Black.

Lots of comments on battery draining when using the camera (1-2% per minute) is this what happens?

Hi I've not experienced this at all even with heavy camera use. I wonder if they have updated to latest software? If it helps I use Google photos to view as default not the built in app.

@@AlexSass Thank you, appreciate the comment. I got the x14 (non-ultra version) yesterday, can report that the Camera drain is about 0.5% per minute

@@northernsupernova1 Cool. Let me know how the non-ultra goes. I have just looked in a Pixel 8 and I see 19% battery used by 31mins. Of course I expect it depends what you use the camera for (eg 8k video processing will use more).
