We should ban, maybe boycott all expensive phones that don't provide charger

8GB/128GB for a flagship series is just dumb, ram & storage are really cheap rn, no need to save money on that

In my country xiaomi 14 less expensive than samsung 24

One thing missing from this comparison is software. I came from Poco and recently switched to S24U.
Using a Xiaomi device for the past years feels like I'm using a clone of iOS or trying to be like iOS. While on Samsung, One UI feels completely different and unique.

One UI alone is enough for me to pick the S24 over the latter. I can compromise on charging for an hour, which could potentially extend its lifespan, and the camera on both is great, but not significantly enough to be the main reason for a choice.

Also, I've used both aspect ratios, but I must say I prefer Samsung's approach. Xiaomi's ratio is similar to that of budget and mid-range phones. Games and videos actually feel bigger on a wider display than on a taller one.

I've had both Samsung and Xiaomi phones and for some reason I just keep coming back to Xiaomi because of there software is so much more optimised and customisedable.

Xiaomi and Vivo are getting global recognition and upping it's game against the likes of Apple and Samsung with great potential.

I almost decided to buy the Xiaomi 14 but when I compared it with the S24 side by side in the showroom, the S24 display looked premium and better. Also the indoor and low light photos were better in S24. But because of Exynos I did not buy S24. So now I'm back to square one. Searching for a compact phone which suits my needs.

How is the battery optimization in Xiaomi 14? Is it better than the Galaxy S23? (not talking about S24).. Because S23 has a great battery life for a compact phone.. How will it perform in the long run? Is it worthy to buy a Xiaomi phone instead a Samsung phone after spending so much money? Is it a good decision to buy S23 in 2024 as this phone is already a year old?

I hope you will reply in detail covering all the points i have mentioned above. Thank you!

I have them both and I like my xiaomi 14 much more. The xiaomi 14 has a few issues tho. I hate that you can't use 3rd party launches with navigation gestures. Also some apps like YouTube refresh rate drops down to 60hz from 120 for some reason. SMH. Still love it tho

[JiriPodzimek]

I was deciding between S23 and Xiaomi 14. I run mobile data all the time and Snapdragon is much more power efficient in this regard. I wouldn't touch S24 with Exynos. I am coming from Oneplus 8 and already like Hyper OS more. I am typing this on Xiaomi 14.

i just purchased the 512gb xiaomi for less than 600 in germany. it's one of those deals like the Samsung one you shown. looking forward to receiving it

I went with the S24 becsuse the xiaomi 14 global version is not yet available in my country. I switched to the S24 coming from the Huawei P30 which is sbout the same size as the S24. I'm loving my S24 so far.

Interesting camera comparison, however looking at the photos from 6:00 I couldn't help but notice the lack of details from the Xiaomi camera that you don't mention at all...I mean on the S24 I can better see the sky, the trees and concrete slabs, but the photo on the Xiaomi is darker and with less details.. Is this true for most night photos on the Xiaomi ?

[ashleymadness]

Watching with my Xiaomi 14.. it is half the price of Samsung S24 in my country.. loving it so far.. its so compact and premiumly smooth

[dustindivina]

I have been waiting for this!!!! Thank you, Mark!!!

Front facing HDR fix is coming with one of the next updates.

[eoin]

Actually the Xiaomi 14 telephoto is really only 2.6x zoom. They use 3.2x but that is only a crop as the camera only uses 32mp of the sensor rather than 50mp. You'll notice it switches to telephoto at 2.6x rather than 3.2x if you use slider to zoom

[makeaguitarnoise]

I heard there is problems with condensation on the lens? Any thoughts?

[adelalfaqih]

Xiaomi 14 will get four years of Android updates and five years of security patches

Since the Xiaomi isn't distributed in the states it would greatly help if you discussed how it gets along (or not) with 4G and 5G bands in the USA. You also didn't mention whether it has a sim-card tray.
