It's Xiao or never

The budget flagship phone space is a crowded one. Is this Xiaomi's moment to rise above the red-hot competition?

Xiaomi has already launched the successors to this phone, the 17 and 17 Pro, in China - so poor old Europe is a generation behind. But the 15T Pro will be powerful enough for most. Its Dimensity 9400+ chip is no slouch and there are even vapour and liquid cooling chambers for gaming marathons.

There's a first-rate look and feel on offer here, with a smart aluminium unibody and narrow bezels around the 6.83in display. There's no skimping on the sharp and bright AMOLED screen, with refresh rates up to 144Hz and peak brightness of 3200 nits.
