Introduction
The Xiaomi 15T series is here – the latest installments in the popular flagship-killer series bring classic designs, premium screens, cutting-edge performance, Leica cameras, and large batteries. Today we will explore the Xiaomi 15T Pro – a smartphone that, at least on paper, strikes a great balance between photography and gaming.
The Xiaomi 15 Pro is a sturdy phone with glass sandwich body and aluminum frame. It comes with enhanced ingress protection, rated for submersion of up to 3m.
The phone is built around a 6.83-inch AMOLED panel with 12-bit color depth, 1280p resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and support for Dolby Vision and HDR10+ content. Around it you get just 1.5mm of bezels, while a sheet of Gorilla Glass 7i sits on top for protection protection.
At the heart of the 15T Pro is the former Mediatek champion – the Dimensity 9400+, paired with rapid UFS 4.1 storage.
The updated Leica camera setup arguably sits closer to the full flagship 15 Pro than any of its T series predecessors. The primary camera on the back retains the impressive 50MP Light Fusion sensor (1/1.31″) from OmniVision. Now it’s joined by a new 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom via a 115mm periscope lens. The unchanged 12MP ultrawide shooter is the least impressive bit around here.
The selfie camera got a small upgrade, too. While it still uses a 32MP Quad-Bayer sensor with fixed focus, it got a new 21mm wide-angle lens, allowing you to fit more in the frame.
The Xiaomi 15T Pro features a 5,500mAh battery that supports 90W wired and 50W wireless charging. That’s not even close to a record-breaking battery these days, but still more than a number flagships have to offer.

But obviously what makes the Xiaomi 15T Pro stand out the most is its starting price of €799. That’s seriously undercutting the proper flagships and, at least going by the specs, there are only minor concessions that come with it. Let’s take a look inside the box and see if that’s actually the case.
Unboxing the Xiaomi 15T Pro
The 15T Pro ships inside a thin paper box. Its contents are the phone itself and a 6A-rated USB-A-to-C cable.
There is also a dark gray case, which is a welcome bonus and another point for the Xiaomi against the mainstream flagships. The phone also comes with a pre-applied screen protector.
