For $1000 – what a deal.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Usually with most brands the $USD is the same as €EUR, and it's €649,- for the 14T and €799,- for the 14T Pro.
But Xiaomi does not sell their phones in USA, If you find these in USA, it's 3rd party imports.
So WTF are you even talking about $1000???

Anyone know if this main sensor is better or worse than the 13T Pro? I'm thinking especially for low light conditions.
14T Pro: 50MP Light Fusion 900 ( Omicron OVX9000 ) 1/1.31"
13T Pro: 50MP Sony Exmor IMX707 1/1.28"

The Omicron is slightly smaller.

Edit:
Apparently it's a VERY GOOD sensor, this review says it puts the iPhone 16 Pro Max ( Ultra Deluxe Super X Plus ) to shame.
Sorry just has a snaps, and those phone names are getting ridiculous.

Now if only they'd make a quality durable synthetic back instead of the glass garbage, that is the main reason for requiring a case, I might have bought it.
It's very attractive IMO, Dimensity 9300+ is crazy fast, the screen is top tier, it has lots of storage and the Cameras are probably best in class.
The main point why I like the 13T/14T is the flat front screen, I hate curved screens, it reminds me of CRT monitors, and it's bad for reflexes and erroneous input.

My 2 biggest beefs with modern high end phones are curved screens, and glass backs. It's worse than no mini jack and SD slot IMO.

Invest in a good charger (GaN preferably) and move on.

What is up with all of you people complaining about chargers not included? Don't you already have like 3000 at home?

It is one of the few decisions that Apple did that were completely right.

Also the complaint about "price was still the same without the charger" is useless, they've increased prices forever, it's not about the charger.

Move on, people.

Edit: some grammar, and also some disagreements without actual answers. I'd really like to know why you'd get angry at less trash in the world.

Not all chargers are equal. Some are more equal than others

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Exactly and you can get better ones from other brands than the ones shipped with phones.
