What does the Photography Kit include?

The kit includes a special grip with a leather finish, featuring a two-stage shutter button, zoom ring, video recording button, and a customizable dial. Additionally, the grip has a 1500mAh extra battery, and a 67mm filter adapter is included.

Is the 1-inch sensor really better than on other phones?

Yes, a larger sensor captures more light, resulting in better dynamic range, less noise in low light, and natural background blur (bokeh) without software intervention.

How does the variable aperture on the main camera work?

The Xiaomi 14 Ultra's main camera has a physical aperture that can be adjusted from f/1.63 to f/4.0. This allows for control over depth of field and light intake, similar to a real camera.

Is the phone waterproof with the photography grip attached?

The phone itself is IP68 waterproof, but the photography grip is not. In wet conditions, the grip should be removed.

Does this phone support Log video for professional use?

Yes, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra supports 10-bit LOG recording, which can be color-graded later, offering professional video quality.

How fast is the 80W wireless charging in reality?

Using Xiaomi's official 80W wireless charger, the battery charges from 0-100% in approximately 46 minutes, which is faster than the wired charging of most competitors.

Screen Replacement

Hard

280–380€Estimated cost

Screen replacement requires removing almost all components. Spare parts are expensive due to the LTPO panel.
