the most modern and powerful mobile phones of the brand today

Today is a big day for Xiaomi. The Chinese manufacturer has decided today to celebrate its biggest event of the year, where it will not only present its new technological products, but also demonstrate how far it has come in other sectors such as the automotive industry. We’ve already seen some of these achievements, such as the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra’s record, but we still have a lot to discover.

And in recent days, Xiaomi has leaked almost everything it was going to present, including stars, its new phones. Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro will not surprise anyone who reads EL ESPAÑOL – El Androide Libre, but they are still leading mobile phones that represent the best of what the company is capable of.

As already announced at the latest Qualcomm event, the new Xiaomi 15 is based on Snapdragon 8 Elite, and represent the “global debut” of the processorin the sense that these are the first devices officially presented with this chip. Being first does not necessarily mean being worse or better than the rest, and Xiaomi wants to make it clear that its implementation is one of the best, thanks to the use of Xiaomi HyperCore in HyperOS 2.0 and a cooling system that is three times faster. traditional dissipation systems.

Starting with the “base” model, if you can call it that, the Xiaomi 15 is based on a 6.36-inch screen mounted on an aircraft-grade aluminum chassis. The resolution is 1.5K, the pixel density is 460 pixels per inch; It can change the refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz and reach a maximum brightness of 3200 nits. The edges of the screen are the thinnest on Xiaomi at the moment. reaching just 1.38mm, smaller than the iPhone 16 Pro. Under the screen we will find for the first time an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, which should be much faster and more reliable, judging by the implementation of other brands.

The design features soft curved edges that blend into the back of the device as they are the same color. Xiaomi calls it “Crater”, a new type of 3D sculpting that better integrates the different parts of the device. Xiaomi 15 has a thickness of 8.09 mm, a width of 71.2 mm and a weight of 191 grams, IP68 water and dust resistance. The company emphasized how easy it is to hold with one handstating that the design is based on the golden ratio and also maintains a 50/50 weight distribution that will prevent falls and accidents.

The battery inside is brutal, with a capacity of no less than 5400 mAh, which is amazing considering the size of the device; It supports 50W wireless charging and 90W wired charging, and has dedicated charging and battery management chips. A new product that users are really looking forward to is magnetic charging, like iPhone MagSafe; The Xiaomi 15 will come with several accessories such as a magnetic charger, cases and fans, and these should theoretically work with the MagSafe accessories designed for Qi 2.

As usual, much attention was paid to photography in the presentation. The Xiaomi 15 features a 50MP triple camera with a Light Hunter 900 primary sensor, a 2.6x telephoto lens and a JN5 wide-angle lens. All the sensors are connected to Xiaomi’s new AISP 2.0 imaging chip, and the company isn’t shy about comparing photos taken on the Xiaomi 15 and iPhone 16 Pro to show off just how advanced it is. As with previous generations, Leica is collaborating to enhance photographs with new Summilux optical lens new generation.

Xiaomi 15 will be available in four colors: lilac, light green, white and black; There will also be a special Silver Edition available in silver with a 3D effect on the rear panel. The price of Xiaomi 15 in China has increased slightly compared to the previous generation, and now starts from 4499 yuan, approximately 580 euros at the exchange rate; The explanation is that the Xiaomi 15 now comes with 12 GB of RAM in the most basic version and can go up to 16 GB for 4,999 yuan (640 euros).

He Xiaomi 15 Prolike previous generations, it is an improved version of Xiaomi 15, and not a completely new mobile phone; However, this time around it has quite a few improvements that can make it much more attractive. And what’s interesting is that despite the changes, it retains the same priorities as the base model; for example, a design based on the golden ratio and 50/50 weight distribution, allowing it to be easily held with one hand despite its larger size.

The big difference is obvious: the 6.73-inch screen allows for higher 2K resolution, although other technical details are identical. It still tops out at 120Hz, peaks at 3,200 nits brightness, and has the same ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. Thanks to increased efficiency, the screen consumes the same amount of power as a lower resolution screen. The only thing the Pro model has on the screen that the base model doesn’t is a new Longjing Glass 2, which is 16 times stronger than the last generation.

If Xiaomi 15 has already surprised us with its battery, then Xiaomi 15 Pro leaves us speechless with its capacity no less than 6100 mAhthe biggest we’ve ever seen in such a flagship mobile phone. Thanks to this battery, Xiaomi boasts that it lasts much longer than competing phones like the OPPO Find X8 Pro or the iPhone 16 Pro Max. 90W wired charging remains, as well as 50W wireless charging compatible with magnetic charging, and new accessories. Xiaomi has achieved this despite reducing the thickness of the mobile phone, which is now 8.35 mm, and the weight, which remains at 213 grams due to the use of aircraft-grade aluminum.

New chips for battery and charge management are largely to blame for these achievements, and this reflects the path that Xiaomi is taking: creating its own chips to improve its devices, and who knows, maybe in the future we will see a mobile phone with Xiaomi. CPU. At the moment, in addition to battery chips, Xiaomi 15 Pro will debut T1S, wireless signal enhancement chipcapable of improving coverage in all situations, including in the metro, where it is improved by 24–34%. A dedicated mode for online gaming also reduces latency by 53%.

Xiaomi 15 Pro is the brand’s new benchmark in photography thanks to the collaboration with Leica and the new Summilux lens; Leica’s CEO appeared at the presentation, demonstrating the importance of collaboration between both companies. Although the Xiaomi 15 Pro also uses a system of three sensors of 50 megapixels each, the zoom is different and reaches 5x magnification thanks to the periscope camera. Additionally, the user can use a new function, Ultra Zoom AI with which you can achieve 20x magnification. using artificial intelligence.

Xiaomi 15 Pro will be available from 5299 yuan, approximately 688 euros at the exchange rate; Like the base model, it comes with 12GB of RAM by default, and the 16GB model starts at RMB 5,799 (€752).
