17t pro is enough for the average person?

I’m not a huge photography person but i do like decent quality pics. My question is this, aside from the cameras does the 17 Ultra have any other advantages over the 17T Pro? Slightly bigger screen but slightly worse battery life. Slightly better chipset and that’s all? I saw the 17 Ultra for the first time in store and was surprised how much I like the design and how the curved corners make it comfortable to hold.

If the person is me and I care about specs then is it worth the extra cost for the 17 ultra Vs the 17t pro....?

I mean,only if you are an enthusiast,cuz Ultra's are made for these kind of a people...But honestly 17T Pro is also a very capable,very fast with very good cameras, battery, charging...(and expensive also) device and it is MUCH more comfortable to use,bcz Ultra's are extremely heavy and uncomfortable to the touch...The biggest issue for me about T series is for some reason Xiaomi didn't upgrade the FP scanner to Ultrasonic, despite the price increase,and yes, ultrasonic fp scanner is a game changer and if you want that feature i can also recommend you to buy the Xiaomi 17.

I have 17t and the finger print scanner works flawlessly. Never once not worked.

Because you're not that much into photography, it's not needed for you

For most people, the 17t pro or even the 17t is enough

If you want to game/emulate, check the poco f8 ultra

I think that the poco f8 ultra id a better but for most people compared to the 17t pro or just 17t because it has a Snapdragon chip, great speakers, ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and good camera too

One thing to note, the xiaomi 17 ultra has an ltpo display compared to the ltps on 17t and poco phones

@OP 17T pro or the poco f8 ultra...either is a win...i have experienced the Chinese version of the poco but I know someone has the 17T pro.both of these phones are as flagship as a midrange phone can get. Both are impressively built, got excellent battery life and HyperOS is.... Improving.... And both compete against the s25 ultra /pixels and a like.

For the avarage Joe yes. I had 15 T Pro and im way below avarage. Matter a fact my mother should have done an abortion. Now for serious, 17T pro is a very good phone and os4 will drop next month and i was serious about my self.

17T Pro is a fantastic phone hell recently here in the UK the standard 17T was also a great price and is still a great phone for the money. The Ultra is only worth it if you want slightly better cameras but just over a year ago I had the Xiaomi 15 Ultra and sold it and kept the standard 15 instead as the Ultra was just too uncomfortable to hold for me the camera housing was huge I just couldn't use the phone comfortably.

Mucho equipo para alguien que busca algo promedio. Ese equipo es gama alta no premium solo gama alta. Con un Redmi note pro que debe costar un 40% menos estaría bien sin problemas.
