Xiaomi 15T Pro review: Predictably good

Xiaomi's new 15T Pro is a good, fairly affordable everyday phone. But it has strong competition, including from its own company.

It’s not the company’s flagship – this accolade is reserved for the typically very powerful but bulky “Ultra” variant – but an in-betweener which offers great performance for a reasonable price. The chip inside this phone, the MediaTek Dimensity 9000+, is roughly as powerful as Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for most tasks, only lagging slightly in GPU performance. You can invoke it with a long press of the power button on the side or by saying “Hey Google,” and immediately start annoying your friends by asking the AI about any topic that comes up in conversation.
