A Comparison of Smartphone Models in 2024

When comparing the Xiaomi 14U with Apple and Samsung, the differences among the three are quite apparent. While the iPhone 15PM and Samsung S24 Ultra still maintain a design focused on being primarily “phones,” with a simple back cover, the Xiaomi 14 Ultra has already embraced a more “camera-like” appearance. It seems to cater more towards photography enthusiasts. Whom do you prefer?

Apart from the 14 Ultra, the OPPO Find X7 Ultra also places a strong emphasis on imaging. It stands out with its unique dual periscope telephoto lens, combining 3X and 6X, the two most commonly used focal lengths. Despite having dual periscopes, OPPO’s design is outstanding, maintaining a slim profile while achieving superior image quality. Additionally, with OPPO’s collaboration with Hasselblad in terms of bokeh, color rendering, and lighting effects, the overall image appears more layered. Moreover, its user-friendly features make it easy for anyone, including amateurs, to capture great photos.

Compared to Apple, domestic brands have taken a step ahead in AI technology. For instance, the AI photography of the 14 Ultra and OPPO Find X7 Ultra’s features like OPPO AI Eraser, OPPO AI Call Summary, and Xiao Bu Assistant have been quite impressive after offline trials, rightfully claiming a leading position in this aspect.

In addition to conventional designs, Chinese brands have also caught up with Samsung in terms of foldable screens. The Huawei Pocket 2 is already out of stock on certain platforms due to its significant popularity. Huawei has also matched Samsung in terms of craftsmanship, demonstrating a keen sense of sophistication.

2024 seems to be a great year for upgrading smartphones. There are minimal chances of making a wrong choice, and one can confidently select a device without much fear of regret. What do you think of this trend?
