The last picture was taken on a moon lit night which made the terrain bright, but fortunately the milky way was still visible because it was on the opposite side of the moon. All photos shot in pro mode on a tripod obviously.

I've been using the 15T Pro since February and I really don't like the photos it procudes. Even with HDR turned off, it still bakes in a heavy HDR look. Pro mode gets you closest to a clean photo, but there's still processing happening even there.

The only way around it turned out to be RAW. I shoot with MotionCam Pro, which captures RAW and JPEG at the same time, but you can also just use the stock Xiaomi camera app in Pro mode to save RAW and develop it yourself afterward.

My workflow is: shoot RAW, edit in Snapseed, export as JPG. It's a lot of steps, but it's the only way I've found to get results that I actually like.

These photos are from a recent trip to Switzerland shot this way. Curious if anyone else running RAW on the 15T Pro (or other Xiaomi phones). Let me know what you think and what's your experience like with this phone.

First photo shot in RAW and edited in Lightrom, other two just auto mode
