The Xiaomi 15's larger 5,400mAh battery (compared to the Xiaomi 14's 4,610mAh) and 90W wired and 50W wireless charging are two major upgrades that extend battery life and speed up charging. Additionally, the Xiaomi 15 features a 50MP triple camera system with improved telephoto capabilities, allowing the Pro model to be zoomed up to 10X without loss. Additional enhancements include an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for enhanced security and an IP68 dust and water-resistant rating.

For a more luxurious look, the Diamond Edition trades the glass for a crocodile-textured leather back and features a 57-facet diamond embedded on the side. This version also has a unique sparkle effect around the camera island and comes in Elephant Gray, Orange, and Glacier White. It's a limited-edition release, with availability likely restricted to the Chinese market.

Finally, with a back panel that comes in 20 different colors and two shiny metal frames, the Custom Edition offers even more personalization. Although this model is limited to 16GB RAM and 512GB storage variants, users can customize it with different color and finish options.
