Buying advice for Algeria
Both Xiaomi 15 Ultra and Xiaomi Poco F8 Ultra are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.
Xiaomi 15 Ultra is 16% cheaper at 145,000 DZD versus 172,000 DZD for the Xiaomi Poco F8 Ultra, leaving room for accessories or a longer screen-protection plan.
Xiaomi Poco F8 Ultra packs a 6500 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.
Xiaomi Poco F8 Ultra posts a stronger benchmark score, useful for heavier games and multitasking on Algerian carriers' busier 4G networks.
Xiaomi 15 Ultra reaches a higher main-sensor resolution at 200 MP, which helps with crops and lower-light photos.
Above 100,000 DZD you are paying for the chipset, camera tuning, and long-term software support, so weigh those against price.
