Xiaomi 15 Ultra’s Camera: A Classic Case of Putting the Cart Before the Horse [Facepalm]
As an everyday user without professional photography skills, my needs are simple: clear shots of objects on my desk and crisp half-body/full-body portraits.
But the 15 Ultra’s focus performance is shockingly off—only a pinprick-sized area stays sharp while the rest dissolves into a blurry mess. Even the text along the edges of a simple ingredient list turns unreadable.
I took the plunge based on Lei Jun’s Apple compatibility claims as a loyal decade-long Apple user. What followed? Pure frustration. Check out these real-world comparison shots between my iPhone 13 Pro and the 15 Ultra.
Taobao customer service delivered the final blow: no adjustment possible. Xiaomi, are you listening? We need an OTA fix—and fast. Most users don’t need to zoom in on distant details—we just want our everyday shots to work. @Lei Jun @Xiaomi @Xiaomi Mobile

I totally get what you mean about the 15 Ultra’s camera issues. It’s frustrating when a flagship phone can’t handle basic shots well. I’d hoped for something more reliable for everyday use, especially since it’s so pricey. The focus problems sound like they’d drive me nuts in daily life.
