Xiaomi sent me a Mystery Premium Box, which I’m unpacking here as a first impression. I knew roughly what was inside, but not exactly. It contains the Xiaomi 15T Pro in Mocha Gold, the Xiaomi SmartBand 10 in the Glimmer Edition, the Xiaomi Watch S4, the Xiaomi OpenWear Stereo Pro, and the Xiaomi Sound Party speaker.

The first look into the box
The first thing in it is a gingerbread heart with my name. Then comes the box with the Xiaomi 15T Pro, beautifully designed and with lots of details. Underneath are the Smart Band 10, the Watch S4, the OpenWear Stereo Pro, and the Sound Party. Everything has a great color, exactly mine.
Xiaomi 15T Pro in Mocha Gold
The 15T Pro is the smartphone for everyone who cares a lot about photography and doesn’t want to spend €1,000 or more. About the design, I’ll just say: if that’s not successful, I don’t know what is.
- Price: RRP from €799.90.
- Camera: Leica Summilux lens and a new Light Fusion 900 image sensor with extended dynamic range that makes more detail visible.
- Zoom: With the Leica 5x Pro telephoto lens, there is 5x optical zoom for the first time in this series, plus 10x lossless zoom and up to 20x Ultra Zoom.
- Display: 6.83 inches, up to 3,200 nits bright.
- Technology: 5,500 mAh battery, 90-watt Hypercharge, MediaTek Dimensity 9400 Plus.
- Colors: Black, Silver, and Mocha Gold.
New in the 15T series is Xiaomi Astral Communication. It enables a direct voice connection between two devices in the 15T series without cellular or Wi-Fi for the first time, basically a walkie-talkie for regions without a network.
Xiaomi SmartBand 10 Glimmer Edition
Xiaomi is celebrating its ten-year anniversary in wearable development with the Glimmer Edition of the SmartBand 10. It emphasizes design and everyday usability and comes with three weeks of battery life. I think the design is really chic.
Xiaomi Watch S4 in 41 mm
The Watch S4 combines a slim design with comprehensive health and fitness functions. The 1.32-inch AMOLED display reaches up to 1,500 nits. There are many new and optimized health functions for sleep and sports tracking. I have the color Sunset Gold, which I simply find chic. With a Milanese band, the watch costs €219.99 RRP.
Xiaomi OpenWear Stereo Pro
The open-ear headphones come in a mocha-colored leather case. They rely on a light, ergonomic design that is meant to combine wearing comfort with really good sound, and cost €149.99 RRP.
Xiaomi Sound Party
The speaker is meant for home and on the go. There is a bass button that I will definitely press. The color even matches my fingernails.
First impressions and outlook
Xiaomi has absolutely hit my taste in terms of color, as if they had designed the things for me. I’m looking forward to setting up the devices and especially to testing the 15T Pro extensively. There are supposed to be videos on the products.
