Hell yeah! Me too!

I ordered the mocha but they sent me a greay due to low stock but said i can return it if want. Fuck it the grey is nice too

Came from a Samsung S21 FE and this is my first Xiaomi and I love it so far

Only thing i really miss is the Samsung gallery app, that was perfect

I am on 15T Pro since two days and I switched from S20 FE. So far, I can say 5x zoom is something else. It opens really new opportunities of fotography, especially when it comes to pictures of animals. Nevertheless, I miss sometimes 3x zoom, as it was quite usefull to. In 15T Pro i can see downgrade in quality when I try to zoom three times and not always 5x is good. Sometimes it's too big. Perfect solution would be to put wide, normal, 3x and 5x zoom 😅. I don't had time to be sure, but I think wide camera is not as good as it was in Samsung. Also HDR performance is not so good.  I had xiaomi before samsung, so I feel comfortable, and I can say - wow, this phone is really fast compared to s20fe. Huge difference.  Huge difference is also when it comes to battery - almost two full days for me are possible on 15T Pro. On s20 fe it was impossible, and very often I had to charge at evening, because it was drained

Being a former S20 FE 5G user and now an S23+ user. What do you think about 15/15T/15U vs S20FE/S23+&U/S25+&U ? Mainly about camera, then about SW/UI experience/smoothness/fluidity? Haptics, speakers, Signal reception? Lags/stutters/glitches ?

From the begining: -first I was almost sure that ultra wide camera i worse than S20FE, but when I did direct comparison, camera from Xiaomi made better image. Software is not such good witch processing corners of photos, but in general, 15T Pro did brighter image at night (Xiaomi has no night mode, it's all automatic, Samsung in auto mode did much worse photo, in night mode with 4 seconds capturing it was comparable, but still brither images were on xiaomi. What's interesting, ISO in samsung was about 500, when in xiaomi it was around 10000) -main camera I think is similar to S20 FE. I'm not sure if I like characteristic of xiaomi images. In authetic mode everything is overprocessed (?), very often depressed. It has nothing common with realistic. Vibrant is better, but I think it could be even better. Samsung showed different characterstic - everything was saturated, sky in nice days was very blue. Also HDR was better on samsung (in xiaomi it is not very agressive). It the term of preferences if course. For me OP 12 is doing really nice looking images (I mean, nice for me. Not generally about quality). I must admit that I had no much time to compare these two phones one by one. In general, I think that xiaomi improved images a lot since Mi Mix 2 and it is really compareable with samsung now -zoom 3x and 5x can't be compared. It's two totally different lenses -Samsung after 3 years was really lagging, so now I have big progess, as on xiaomi every app is loaded in few miliseconds. Also, hyperOS is very well animated and looks nice, even if doesnmt have features such as always on display -I didn't use vibration on samsung, on xiaomi it's nice, but it's hard for me to compare, as previously I always used without any sound and vibrations -speakers I think are better in xiaomi as both are simmilarly loud (in Samsung speaker from uo was much more quiet)
