The new flagship comes with impressive imaging specs, including a total of four image sensors, with pixel counts from 50MP to a whopping 200MP, \u00a0photo and video HDR modes, as well as a host of other features and modes. In terms of camera hardware, the main improvements over the predecessor are the pixel count on the long tele camera (now 200MP sensor) and the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"1206\">In our photo tests, overall image quality was excellent, with a wide dynamic range, low noise and nice colors. With its consistent performance in preserving details and controlling noise, along with its ability to keep single portraits well-focused and sharp in most conditions, the device has achieved a higher ranking than its predecessor in the SBMARK protocol.<\/p><div id=\"forum-368986077\" class=\"forum-content forum-entity-placement\">\t\t<div class=\"ad-wrapper\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:250px;text-align:center\">\r\n\t\t\t<!-- In Article Blog -->\r\n\t\t\t<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n\t\t\t\t style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3476569516614521\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-slot=\"9829044906\"><\/ins>\r\n\t\t\t<script>\r\n\t\t\t\t (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<p data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"1206\">The tele zoom is the Xiaomi\u2019s main strength, with excellent performance across all tele-zoom settings. In our tests, the 15 Ultra achieved the best results for photo tele zoom to date and was particularly impressive at long-range tele settings. However, at the opposite end of the zoom spectrum, ultra-wide results lagged behind other flagships in some test categories. In the latest version of our protocol, as telephoto and especially long ranges performances play an increasingly important role in the user experience, the smartphone has become even more competitive within the SBMARK rankings.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1208\" data-end=\"1552\">Video performance was pretty strong, too, thanks to good exposure and a wide dynamic range, nice colors and low noise. However it could not quite match the best competitors in terms of exposure and color adaptation during scene changes, autofocus, and texture. Video stabilization did a good job at keeping video footage smooth and stable, but was less effective than on the best flagship models, such as the Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max or the Huawei Pura 70 Ultra.<\/p><div id=\"forum-2882051252\" class=\"forum-content-3 forum-entity-placement\">\t\t<div class=\"ad-wrapper\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:250px;text-align:center\">\r\n\t\t\t<!-- In Article Blog -->\r\n\t\t\t<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n\t\t\t\t style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3476569516614521\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-slot=\"9829044906\"><\/ins>\r\n\t\t\t<script>\r\n\t\t\t\t (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"usecase\">\n<div class=\"usecase-gauge\">\n<div class=\"circular-progress-bar\" data-pct=\"95\" data-value=\"125\">\n                                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"svg\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" viewport=\"0 0 40 40\" version=\"1.1\"><circle r=\"32\" cx=\"40\" cy=\"40\" fill=\"transparent\" stroke-dasharray=\"201.06176\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\"><\/circle><circle id=\"bar\" r=\"32\" cx=\"40\" cy=\"40\" fill=\"transparent\" stroke-dasharray=\"201.06176\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" style=\"stroke-dashoffset: 172.23287671233px\"><\/circle><\/svg><\/p>\n<div class=\"score-max\">\n                                    <span class=\"best\">BEST 146<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Top score<br \/><span>Oppo Find X8 Ultra<\/span>\n                                    <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In low light, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra delivered a nice imaging experience, with the camera providing a warm white balance and impressive noise reduction. Exposure was spot on and a wide dynamic range ensured good detail in both the shadow and highlight areas of the frame. On the downside, colors could be oversaturated on occasion, and warm color casts could impact the image output. While the balance between texture retention and noise reduction was impressive for still images, low-light video footage lacked detail and fine textures. When recording video in dim conditions, our testers also noticed some exposure and color adaptation issues when the content of the scene changed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row image-compare image-compare-1\">\n<div class=\"col small-12 medium-12 large-12\">\n<div class=\"col-inner box-shadow-2\">\n<div class=\"box has-hover has-hover box-text-bottom\">\n<div class=\"box-image\">\n<div class=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-box alignnone wp-image-182787 size-image-box\" style=\"text-align: center; color: #777777; letter-spacing: 0.35px;\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Xiaomi-15-Ultra-Camera-test-\u2013-Retested.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\"  ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"box-text\">\n<p>Xiaomi 15 Ultra \u2013 Good exposure, saturated colors with warm cast<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"usecase\">\n<div class=\"usecase-gauge\">\n<div class=\"circular-progress-bar\" data-pct=\"95\" data-value=\"152\">\n                                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" id=\"svg\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" viewport=\"0 0 40 40\" version=\"1.1\"><circle r=\"32\" cx=\"40\" cy=\"40\" fill=\"transparent\" stroke-dasharray=\"201.06176\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\"><\/circle><circle id=\"bar\" r=\"32\" cx=\"40\" cy=\"40\" fill=\"transparent\" stroke-dasharray=\"201.06176\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" style=\"stroke-dashoffset: 192.19496855346px\"><\/circle><\/svg><\/p>\n<div class=\"score-max\">\n                                    <span class=\"best\">BEST 159<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Top score<br \/><span>Oppo Find X8 Ultra<\/span>\n                                    <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Xiaomi 15 Ultra was capable of capturing overall nice portrait shots, with realistic skin tones and good exposure across all light conditions.

The scores rely on objective tests for which the results are calculated directly using measurement software in our laboratory setups, and on perceptual tests where a sophisticated set of metrics allow a panel of image experts to compare aspects of image quality that require human judgment. Testing a smartphone involves a team of engineers and technicians for about a week. Photo and Video quality are scored separately and then combined into an overall score for comparison among the cameras in different devices. For more information about the SBMARK Camera protocol, click here. More details on smartphone camera scores are available here. The following section gathers key elements of SBMARK\u2019s exhaustive tests and analyses. Full performance evaluations are available upon request.

The photo protocol is designed to take into account the main use cases and is based on typical shooting scenarios, such as portraits, landscape and zoom photography. The evaluation is performed by visually inspecting images Cons a reference of natural scenes, and by running objective measurements on images of charts captured in the lab under different lighting conditions from 0.1 to 10,000+ lux and color temperatures from 2,300K to 6,500K.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"subscoreHeading heading-score-v5 level-4 main  photo\" id=\"photo-main\">\n<div class=\"subscoreTitle\">\n<div class=\"headingIcon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Xiaomi-15-Ultra-Camera-test-\u2013-Retested.svg.svg+xml\"><\/div>\n<h4>Main<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subScoreBars\">\n<p>168<\/p>\n<p>Huawei Pura 70 Ultra<\/p>\n<p>Huawei Pura 70 Ultra<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col large-12\">\n<div class=\"echarts-item\">\n<p>Xiaomi 15 Ultra Photo scores<\/p>\n<p>\n                            <em>The photo Main tests analyze image quality attributes such as exposure, color, texture, and noise in various light conditions.

The HDR format delivered very good contrast and a wide dynamic range, ensuring good exposure and nice color rendering. The level of captured detail was excellent, preserving fine detail with a natural look, without oversharpening. In addition, noise levels were low, even when shooting in low light. This made for an excellent texture\/noise trade-off.<\/p>\n<p>Colors were generally nice, with natural skin tones in portrait shots. However, our testers also noticed some local contrast issues in scenes with strong backlighting often being to high and leading to lost information on faces. While the autofocus was mostly reliable and stable, the camera\u2019s primary camera has a very wide aperture, which is great for light collection, but the resulting narrow depth of field made it difficult to keep all subjects in group shots in focus. People at the back were often out of focus.<\/p>\n<h5>Close-Up<\/h5>\n<p>In our tests, the 15 Ultra\u2019s close-up mode did a very good job, capturing good levels of details at close distance.

Noise on moving objects is also evaluated on natural images. Objective measurements are performed on images of charts taken in various conditions from 0.1 to 10000 lux and different kinds of dynamic range conditions.

The goal is to reproduce portrait photography comparable to one taken with a DLSR and a wide aperture. The main image quality attributes paid attention to are depth estimation, artifacts, blur gradient, and the shape of the bokeh blur spotlights. Portrait image quality attributes (exposure, color, texture) are also taken into account.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The Xiaomi 15 Ultra\u2019s bokeh mode captured natural-looking images. Subject isolation was mostly natural, with a soft-looking simulated aperture and natural blur gradient. However, some depth estimation artifacts could be noticeable, in addition to some slight exposure and artifact instabilities across consecutive shots. Thanks to its impressive zoom performances, Bokeh usually provided very sharp faces in comparison to Huawei Pura 70 Ultra and even more Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max making it one of our best contester on this feature, along with Oppo Find X8 Ultra.<\/p>\n<div class=\"row image-compare image-compare-3\">\n<div class=\"col small-12 medium-4 large-4\">\n<div class=\"col-inner box-shadow-2\">\n<div class=\"box has-hover has-hover box-text-bottom\">\n<div class=\"box-image\">\n<div class=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-box alignnone wp-image-183195 size-image-box\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1751043460_278_Xiaomi-15-Ultra-Camera-test-\u2013-Retested.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\"  ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"box-text\">\n<p>Xiaomi 15 Ultra \u2013 Soft bokeh effects, slight depth artifacts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col small-12 medium-4 large-4\">\n<div class=\"col-inner box-shadow-2\">\n<div class=\"box has-hover has-hover box-text-bottom\">\n<div class=\"box-image\">\n<div class=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-box alignnone wp-image-183195 size-image-box\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1751043460_339_Xiaomi-15-Ultra-Camera-test-\u2013-Retested.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"box-text\">\n<p>Huawei Pura 70 Ultra \u2013 Natural bokeh effect, very slight depth artifacts<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col small-12 medium-4 large-4\">\n<div class=\"col-inner box-shadow-2\">\n<div class=\"box has-hover has-hover box-text-bottom\">\n<div class=\"box-image\">\n<div class=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-box alignnone wp-image-182963 size-image-box\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1751043460_606_Xiaomi-15-Ultra-Camera-test-\u2013-Retested.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\"  ><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"box-text\">\n<p>Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max \u2013 Natural simulated aperture, very slight depth artifacts<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subscoreHeading heading-score-v5 level-4 tele hide-best photo\" id=\"photo-tele\">\n<div class=\"subscoreTitle\">\n<div class=\"headingIcon\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.sbenny.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/1746757076_897_Google-Pixel-9a-Camera-Test.svg.svg+xml\"><\/div>\n<h4>Tele<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subScoreBars\">\n<p>166<\/p>\n<div class=\"bestDeviceBar\">\n<p class=\"bestDeviceSubScore\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/forum.sbenny.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Oppo-Find-X5-Pro-Battery-test.svg.svg+xml\" alt=\"Best\"><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Highest Score<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"info-box\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"info-box-content\">\n<p>All image quality attributes are evaluated at focal lengths from approximately 40 mm to 300 mm, with particular attention paid to texture and detail.

Autofocus is smooth and reliable in both bright and low-light conditions, ensuring consistently sharp subjects. While some softness and noise can appear at extreme zoom distances, especially in challenging lighting, the Xiaomi 15 Ultra remains one of the top performers in video zoom, though it faces strong competition from other flagship devices pushing the limits of long-range video quality. The device is mostly impacted by its lowlight performances where it struggles to preserve the quality visible in brighter light conditions. Overall, it provides strong performances, but still behind key competitors like Oppo Find X8 Ultra and Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We put the Xiaomi 15 Ultra through our rigorous SBMARK Camera test suite to measure its performance in photo, video, and zoom quality from an end-user perspective.
