Editorial report

Xiaomi 15 Ultra 12 GB / 256 GB / China technical sheet

The Xiaomi 15 Ultra suits anyone looking for a high-end phone with versatile cameras, a sharp display, and broad connectivity. Its main trade-off is its weight: at 229 g, it is heavier than most phones of its time; its 9.4 mm thickness is also greater than most. The configuration shown pairs 16 GB of RAM with 512 GB of storage. The phone is also sold with 12 GB / 256 GB and 16 GB / 1 TB.

The 6.73″ LTPO AMOLED display has 522 ppi, among the highest densities of its time, and a 3200-nit peak brightness, better than most. The main camera’s 1″ sensor and f/1.6 aperture are both among the best of their time; the periscope telephoto camera adds 4.3x optical zoom, also among the best. The Snapdragon 8 Elite and 16 GB of RAM put its hardware among the best, while the 5410 mAh battery has typical capacity. Its 90 W charging is faster than most, and 80 W wireless charging is among the best. Connectivity and the phone overall also rank among the best of its time. NeoScore: 9.2. It is a standout choice for buyers who prioritize cameras, display detail, and a broad feature set, with weight and thickness worth considering. At launch it was among the most expensive, and it is somewhat expensive for what it is.
