The Xiaomi 15T and Xiaomi 15T Professional smartphones might be introduced on 24 September, it’s been confirmed, and it’d simply have a Pixel 10-rivalling digicam characteristic.
The corporate has taken to X (previously Twitter) to announce the Xiaomi 15T Sequence launch on 24 September. It’s to happen in Munich, proper in the course of Oktoberfest.
The theme for the occasion is ‘Far nearer’, which hints at potential digicam enhancements for Xiaomi’s new almost-flagship telephone. I’d hazard a guess that the Xiaomi 15T Professional, a minimum of, is about for a major enhance to its telephoto provision.
Provided that the Pixel 10‘s huge new characteristic this yr is its devoted telephoto digicam, Xiaomi’s new Professional telephone may show to be a (less expensive) direct rival.
Whether or not that boosted zoom comes by way of a closely processed AI-boosted method or a stronger Leica-branded optical zoom lens stays to be seen. Contemplating final yr’s Xiaomi 14T Professional solely had a 2.6x optical zoom digicam, the latter must be fairly achievable.
What does the ’T’ stand for?
We nonetheless do not know what the ’T’ stands for in Xiaomi’s T-series of telephones. All we all know is that yearly round this time, Xiaomi launches a brand new telephone (or two) that neatly cuts again on a few of the little flagship prospers of the previous non-T collection, with an accompanying drop in worth.
I reviewed the Xiaomi 14T Professional final yr, praising its “important enhancements over the 13T Professional”, its excellent efficiency, and its speedy charging.
As for the Xiaomi 14T, Luke Baker discovered it to be “an inexpensive handset that would simply be mistaken for a flagship system. It performs properly, takes nice images, has a surprising show and expenses rapidly.“
The Xiaomi 14T Professional got here with a really affordable £649 price ticket, whereas the Xiaomi 14T set you again a mere £549 at launch. We’re wanting ahead to seeing Xiaomi’s newest pitch for mid-range(ish) supremacy.
