Users are delighted with Xiaomi 12S Ultra
Xiaomi 12S Ultra has been on sale in China for 10 days already, and the first buyers have already had time to get acquainted with the novelty and tell about their impressions. According to a Chinese source, such impressions are almost entirely positive – 98% of the reviews left on the JD.com site are positive.
It is also noted that the basic version of Xiaomi 12S Ultra (a smartphone, like other representatives of the 12S line, is sold only in China) with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of flash memory, offered for $ 890, is in short supply. Other versions (12/256 GB for $960 and 12/512 GB for $1035) are available for order without restrictions.
Recall, a feature of Xiaomi 12S Ultra is the Leica camera, which uses an inch 50-megapixel Sony IMX989 sensor. Other sensors – 48-megapixel. One is used in conjunction with an ultra-wide angle lens, the other is used with a periscope lens that provides optical zoom. Also in the configuration of the smartphone is a 6.73-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2K, SoC Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1, a 4860 mAh battery that supports 67 W fast charging.

Is this iPhone possessed by the devil? The girl took a picture of herself in front of the mirrors and discovered that the reflections in the mirrors did not match her pose.

Modern mobile photography is increasingly turning into computational photography every year. And sometimes this results in very interesting incidents, as in the photo below.
At first glance, it may seem that everything is in order with the picture. But if you look more closely, you can see that the girl who published this photo looks different in two neighboring mirrors, and besides, neither of the mirrors reflects the girl’s real pose.
Creating such an image in Photoshop or another editor is not difficult, but the caveat is that this photo was taken on an iPhone without any further processing.
The reason for this result is actually quite simple. For some reason, the iPhone algorithms mistook the girl’s reflections for other people, and since modern photos are taken by gluing together many instantly taken photographs, we see that from somewhere in this set of photos the iPhone took one girl, from somewhere else, and then I glued it all together.
The funny thing is that in the past, when there was no talk of any modern smartphones or cameras, such a photo could have been regarded as the work of the devil.

Xiaomi has finally announced pre-sales of the titanium Xiaomi 14 Pro

Despite the fact that the official premiere of the Xiaomi 14 Pro Titanium Special Edition with a titanium case took place on October 26, it has not yet reached real sales. But some progress has already been made: the company has announced a date for pre-orders in China.
They will begin to be accepted on the Xiaomi Mall branded marketplace and other large platforms from December 5. It has not yet been announced when open retail sales will start. And it’s unlikely that things will come to this soon: on the Weibo social network, a Xiaomi representative said that the device will be available “in small quantities.”
Let us remind you that in terms of characteristics, the Xiaomi 14 Pro Titanium Special Edition is no different from the regular Xiaomi 14 Pro, the availability of which has no problems. But it has a titanium frame (99% titanium alloy) and only one configuration with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of flash memory. They are asking $920 for the titanium flagship.

Without 200 megapixels, but with flicker-free screens, new platforms and improved cameras. Honor 100 and Honor 100 Pro go on sale in China

Today, official sales of the Honor 100 and Honor 100 Pro smartphones started in China (their official premiere, we recall, took place a week ago).
The older model is offered in four configurations: 12/256 GB – $475, 16/256 GB – $525, 16/512 GB – $550, 16 GB/1 TB – $625.
The cost of the younger one is as follows: 12/256 GB – $350, 16/256 GB – $400, 16/512 GB – $450.
Honor 100 is built on the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 SoC, equipped with a 6.7-inch OLED screen with a resolution of 1.5K and a frame rate of 120 Hz. The Honor 100 Pro SoC Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and an OLED screen with a diagonal of 6.78 inches, a resolution of 1.5K and a frame rate of 120 Hz. The PWM control frequency of both models is 3840 Hz, so the displays do not flicker. The smartphones also received 5000 mAh batteries with support for 100-watt wired charging (the Pro version also supports wireless charging).
The Honor 100 Pro no longer has a 200-megapixel sensor in the main camera, but it has been replaced with a 50-megapixel Sony IMX906 of the top line. The camera of this model also has a 12-megapixel sensor (in the module with an ultra-wide-angle lens) and a 32-megapixel sensor (in the module with a telephoto lens). The younger model does not have a module with a 32-megapixel sensor.
