And there's the price difference... I've paid around US$650 for the Xiaomi 14 8GB 256GB in November, which is almost half of what the iPhone 15 Pro 8GB 256GB costs in the US (US$1100), and a third of what it costs where I'm from (US$2050). Given such close results (for me the X14 loses only on night video stabilization, by a small margin), the choice here, personally, is a nobrainer. Been pretty happy with it for these last few months :D Nice video! I too used my X14 extensively at Disney back in December xD

[@hoyoungwon]

Thanks for watching! Glad we had the same positive experience haha

[@andyH_England]

In the UK, the Xiaomi 13 is £850, and the Xiaomi 14 will likely be nearer £900, so the price difference is only £100. Checking on eBay, iPhones have about a £250 advantage in secondhand prices compared to Xiaomi after a year, so net prices make the iPhone an easy choice in the UK. I do not import as there is no International Warranty, and in the UK, we get two years, which is worth >£100 as well. Most of us in the West, Xiaomi is very close in price to Apple.

[@LostJak]

@@andyH_England In your case, yeah, I agree it is a tougher choice. Here in BR the iPhone is US$2000, like I said before, and there's a high chance the Xiaomi 14 won't even debut here. So I understand sometimes there're just a few options at play. I was already apprehensive to pay over US$600 because I think that's a lot for a phone. So the US$1100~US$1200 (depending on which one you choose) on your end is unthinkable to me. I think both of these phones are definitely not worth that money (even though my experience with the X14 is great). Maybe the Xiaomi 14 Ultra is, but even then, it's a matter of circumstance and how one chooses to spend their money. It's something I'm not willing to pay for a phone, personally. You've mentioned warranty and yeah this is a risk you make when you get an imported phone, but on the other hand, is the warranty really worth US$600? Because you could get the X14 from stores like TradingShenzhen (this is where I got mine from) for almost half the price you'd get in the UK. I got one when I was in France and another for my gf when I was in Portugal, both times it arrived with no issues. Only thing to watch out for is band coverage. Anyway, hope you buy your new phone, whichever it ends up being, and you have a blast with it!

[@Abdullah36172]

Xiaomi fan here. I have tried other phones too but Xiaomi is the best brand for the time being

[@genderaffirmed]

I’ve got a xiaomi 14 here in the US and a 15 pro. For me the first thing I noticed is the color profile is cooler on the xiaomi. Some may like this and some might not. The details seem to be retained better in most scenarios too with the xiaomi with one exception. It softens wrinkles. Some might like this but I’ve always been a fan of seeing a subjects imperfections being not a flaw but a reality when taking photos. As far as the zoom is concerned this is where the xiaomi 14 actually lags behind quite a bit. The zoomed in photos lose a lot of detail in order to maintain overall consistency in the entirety of the zoomed shots. Video on the iPhone 15 pro is still better too when it comes to zooming and overall quality. That aside the xiaomi makes a better overall phone due to the cost, features, superior low light photography, battery life and charging speeds, loud speakers, and bigger display.

Both phones are excellent to me. As a Samsung user of S23 Ultra and Google Pixel 6a and iPhone 15 pro max , I would have to say iPhone does still is the king in terms of video quality. Xiaomi is doing a more great job every new models release.They say you can't have everything u need in a phone cause no phone is perfect as good as DSLR. But all new phones release today even mid range can stand up with the flagship phones. I also like Vivo. These phones will boil down to users preferences and needs. Great review!

*iPhone 15 cant handle Torrent... I will never chose a phone that tell me what to do. The phone must do, what i want it to do.*

[@andyH_England]

It is illegal in the UK (and the US) to download copyrighted torrents (P2P), so I suspect Apple is acting in its best interest so it does not get sued for being an agent of illegal activities. I understand in some countries, it is not illegal, so for those, then Android is the best choice. I am in the UK, so no torrent apps are not an issue as I do not want to break the law. The Police are clamping down on this here.
