Processing power heavily favors the Xiaomi with Snapdragon 8 Elite and Adreno 830 GPU versus the Edge 30 Pro's older 8 Gen 1 and Adreno 730. Camera capabilities tilt toward Xiaomi as well, featuring a larger 1-inch sensor main camera with f/1.44 aperture and a dedicated 50MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom, while the Edge 30 Pro relies on a more modest setup.

Software is newer on Xiaomi with Android 15/HyperOS 2 versus Android 12. The Edge 30 Pro's only notable advantage is being slightly lighter at 196g versus 213g. Xiaomi 15 Pro represents significantly better value and performance at the same price point.
