Put in a lotta work for this video guys... I'd appreciate it, if you can take a moment and drop a comment on what you think... any inputs - lemme know! - have a nice day, ASH
@@C4ETech xiaomi looks like it was taken on a proper DSLR lens rather than the sharpened look you have come to prefer on the iphone which gives a phone look to the pictures. Lol so yeah unless you are a professional photographer, then you are definitely going to prefer the xiaomi but if you are an average consumer who likes to post instagram ready pictures which obviously you are, then you will pick the iphone along with other brain dead people in the universe. Lol
Have been following C4etech since Ash answers days. Your content is top notch, sad to see that your sub count isn't rising as fast as it should. Hope to see 2mil on C4etech soon
If the 14 Ultra is only for fans, I can only wonder who the S24 Ultra is for. For over 120k INR we are getting 1/1.3 inch main sensor which shoots horrible videos and no pro features like 10 Bit Log. All the lenses on the 14U being capable of shooting macro is totally a unique feature imo. And overall the images are definitely a lot less "processed" looking that doesn't give the "smartphone" over-sharpened look. Even Type-C is on the 24U limited to 5Gbps vs 10Gbps on the 14U. Most even make excuses that the 24U will magically improve - "just wait for software updates". I'm just waiting for SD 8G4 phones with cameras equipped with 1 inch sensor and it seems like it'll only be Xiaomi providing it.
Thank you for your honest opinion I have had my doubts about it. It's the software that does not allow you to upload to free load er. Look forward to watching more of your UA-cam videos
Yes, Xiaomi Exec Confirmed 4+5 year Update cycle. Additionally I have sourced Photography kit from China at around 18k including customs, I'll update here regarding Lenscap, as far as I beleive we need to purchase it seperately.
Thanks for this review. I was really half minded regarding my recent purchase of the Xiaomi 14. When i got it hands on, the phone felt a little smaller, coz I've been used to a 6.7" screen all this time. Now, immediately i started regretting that i could have" spent more" to get the Ultra... Now, watching your true opinions, i decided not to rush and wait for sometime, if at all it gets dead cheaper, I'll think about it. Anyway, what would be your suggestion for me with the regular Xiaomi 14...?
the intro is dope.i have a quesetion do you use macs for logging into your professional accounts,for security like others do share your answer if you are comfortable
4:14 here's an input: even though the vlog style footage is great and adds a personal feel to the review, the filter used or rather colour palette leaves a lot to be desired and can be improved upon. It's a bit too warm for my personal taste. #30Squad
Kinda sucks that the performance stability hasn't increased much despite the jump in the size. That was something that was kinda almost everyone was expecting. Other than that, the phone seems very fricking interesting. I'd be personally into getting the phone just to practice my photography and then edit and post it as and when I want to. (We all can have our dreams and delusions, irrespective of how much your wallet can support it, duh) Edit: At the asking price, it's too steep. It's not a _sony_
1:29 what was wrong with the top of the phone, though?! 3 dots less doesn't mean cleaner! those mics were useful! and there is no use of thia top to be cleaner!
Been ur fan for a long bro.. a few points - 1) Is the Burst mode better than Sony’s ? 2) does it overheat and throttle ? 3) Do you suggest that buying a Chinese version is a better bet, considering the bigger battery and more storage ?
Hey ash can you please tell whether the dc dimming and pwm dimming matter much? Although i do not feel any issues on my current smartphone which does not have anything like that but will it affect my eyes in long term??
Nowadays all the reviewers pretend so hard that "personally" they hate curved edges and that all-flat displays are their fav sound so counter intuitive n fake, love Ash for the honesty
It's quite interesting to see these reviews on YT about how the cameras aren't really turning out as they have been advertised especially when compared to competitors (Samsung and Apple). Even if they are tad lower in performance (I guess it is due to a semi-baked software to start with), then is it worth the price bargain (when compared to Samsung's 1.3L and Apple's 1.5L)?
samsung is never the 1.3... check out offline and other options, you should get it cheaper... uae official price is 1.12, u can get it for 85k offline today
Xiaomi has gone all-in on hardware and not so much on software. Hopefully, that will change, but for consistency, the iPhone 15PM and S24U are the better choices, though they are not perfect. There is no perfect camera phone, all have pros and cons, but for the average user, the iPhone is consistent which is why it sells so well.
Agreed 100% with your conclusion only great hardware should be complimented with optimised software which is clearly lacking here. Thats the space where samsung and apple plays their games they give us inferior hardware compared to this but compensate in software.
Yep so what are the phones are available add flagship level in India and how do they compare in price to this phone? Equity doesn't mean that someone is being critical to be mean it means that if you ask how this could be improved: if you make an insertion about the price perhaps you could talk about competitor phones and prices...namaste
Hai Anna . neenga chaina-la irukkathu Xiaomi phones-a immediate-aa review poda romba easy-aa irukkuthula 😂 . And Your Editing Is Really Good And Neat Anna . Keep It Up 👍🏻💪🏻💯 .
I considered it... but didnt wanna grade out places with the screen on cam.... kinda took away from the video... gotta figure that out before the next one
One of the best things about the Xiaomi 14 Ultra is the Display, it is super bright! Waay brighter than that Vivo X100 Pro, which is not bright enough. It also has fabulous calibration options! The only hardware weakness I see, (apart from top heavy) is the battery, which is 'okay'. Sees me through the day but that's it. The price in India is 1.100 € not 1.500 €, which is a good price. The Vivo X100 Pro is ₹90K so ₹10K more sounds about right. Software, I agree 100%, it has glitches which HyperOS on even Redmi doesn't have! The image processing too, could maybe be better but these things can be fixed if they want to. It's selling well in India btw but I don't get why they aren't marketing it more aggressively. 🤷 Still, it is an excellent phone with an excellent camera and top end specs, definitely a good buy!
I was heavily confused between Vivo x100 pro and Xiaomi 14ultra and watch many videos. Now am fixed of Vivo x100 pro. Its way more cheaper and except the weaker wide angle camera, everything else is superior. I will import x100 pro from china soon❤ ❤
I know i maybe wrong but why would anyone buy Xiaomi or any chinese phone that price when u will get pixel Samsung or apple phones at that price. Its just my opinion and question
The funny thing is when I researched Xiaomi before buying my Redmi, then Poco, they maintained they were PRIMARILY A SOFTWARE COMPANY. Strange, isn't it...perhaps they were Simply referring to the way they primarily earn revenue - through bloatware and ads.
Not exactly bro, lemme explain since you seem interested in this ☺️ ... Xiaomi back in 2012 used to be a custom rom company... My first brush with miui was on the galaxy note 1... They'd have roms for every major phone... Back then, Miui was a breath of fresh air... It was quirky, had an excellent theme engine... It was fun back then... Then they got into phones and the rest is history... PS their first flagship for India (Xiaomi mi 3) was priced at 15k inr (~$190 ish by today's conversion rates but more like ~$375 really by what the conversion rates were back then)
@@ReinKayomi I bet you can't name one defect that is specific to the Indian variant and guessing how you haven't replied to the comment below you, I'm guessing you just don't have any clue yourself
This seems like a great phone in terms of hardware and seems to (in this video) have a great camera too. In other reviews the images don't look as sharpened so this may not be an issue. However, I experienced MiUI yesterday and today, helping a dear friend set up his phone and I do not like MiUI... at all. It looks terrible too. Unless HyperOS is VERY different / much better, I won't touch it. And that's a very high price, it will be even more here in India. The camera casing is a super-cool accessory though! 😃 (I would go with Oppo or Vivo for the software) I have a Pixel 6 Pro, the 8 is barely an upgrade and it's already unaffordable for me. The 9 will be even more pricey so bye bye Pixel. Chinese phones will soon rule...

Nice video ..but howz the battery ? SOT and do you use 1 sim or both the sims.
Hi ash..From era of geekyaranjit,igyaan & c4etech..❤
Hello 😊
Great information just use some background music so it can be more entertaining although don't use something too overpowering
Ok bro.... There was something subtle here too... Maybe too subtle
@C4ETech how much is the battery life ? What the SOT and do you use 2 sims ?
Scene shifting is a neat addition... Really loved it
Glad you did

Thanks a lot dear👍👍
its damn worth bro it's better than S24 ultra and iphone 15 pro max ,So i thinks it's better priced
Great video quality and detailed review Unexpected post credit secens ...😂..

Hai bro ☺️☺️☺️....
Nice video bro
The Indian pricing for the 14 series leaves a lot to be desired. Hopefully we get good deals during the big billion days.
It's priced like a flagship ? It's on par with the OnePlus 12 and some parts are more excellent than the OnePlus
The one plus is priced 30,000 lesser than what the ultra sells for , so yeah you can't compare these 2 phones@@james_isaac
The shift in color grading feels jarring whenever you are in the shot. Stick to a constitent grade throughout.

Hi.. Bro.. Vivo x100 pro or mi14 ultra which one better... Please reply 😢
havent compared side by side but the camera implementation based on usage, I feel vivo did it better
@@C4ETech thanks anna👍🏻
What u think. Xiaomi 14 ultra or vivo x100 pro. Which is the best camera phone?
Pixel or iPhone is better for the price why would u buy a Chinese phone at this price.
They should have went for a 200w charger or at least 120w as it comes with 90w. My redmi note 12 pro plus comes with 120w...
It would be interesting to see this phone with gcam mod
we got the hardware ISP with Google software i expect this to beat Pixel and Iphones
A good honest review
does Xiomi phone still pop up ads in their device? with their new os…
I was heavily confused between Vivo x100 pro and Xiaomi 14ultra and watch many videos. Now am fixed of Vivo x100 pro. Its way more cheaper and except the weaker wide angle camera, everything else is superior. I will import x100 pro from china soon❤ ❤
I know i maybe wrong but why would anyone buy Xiaomi or any chinese phone that price when u will get pixel Samsung or apple phones at that price. Its just my opinion and question
Please try motioncam pro on this device, this app shoot pure quality video with no sharpening and noise reduction.
