China no promo for 14 series, 13 Ultra still slightly more expensive but overall better than 14 cameras.
do you think they will price slash mi13 ultra on 11.11? currently mi14 256gb is 3999 rmb, mi13 ultra around 4.5k+rmb for base model.

You sure 4.5k is new? Xiaomi official store is 5399 after discount, even brand new condition opened set is still 5.1-5.2k.

The variable aperture still feels a bit gimmicky to me. I prefer a larger 1" sensor over this.
The variable aperture is most useful when recording videos.

When shooting video on a phone, the automatic adjustment of the shutter speed results in sharp and unnatural edges.

For video to portray motion in a way that feels natural to the human eye, it is recommended to adhere to the 180-degree rule. This means that the shutter speed should be set to twice your frame rate, resulting in a video with some motion blur which makes the footage look more authentic.

So, with Xiaomi's auto variable aperture feature, you can lock the shutter to 1/60th when shooting at 30fps or 1/120th when shooting at 60fps to achieve a smooth high-end cinematic look.

If your phone camera doesn't allow you to adjust the aperture, locking the shutter speed can result in a video that is too bright, as it is letting in too much light in. In such cases, you can use an ND filter attachment to lower the exposure level.

Yes, you can also fix the sharp look in post-production but it is always best to get it right in the first place to avoid any video artifacts.

Of course, if you want to have the best sensor, you need to wait for the 14 Ultra.

Xiaomi 14 titanium looks really nice.

Thanks to the embargo, Chinese phones now have better shock proof glass than the usual gorilla ones.

The telemacro feature, which was first introduced in the Xiaomi 13 Pro with a floating lens design, will now also be available on both the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Pro. What it does is that it allows the lens to easily switch between telephoto and close-up, and can focus on objects as close as 10cm at 3.2x optical zoom.
