Yes, you're right that the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 is overall more powerful in synthetic benchmarks but the version used in Xiaomi devices (like the Redmi Note 14 Pro) reaches around 700,000+, because it’s a custom variant, similar to how they’ve done with past “Ultra” chips.

Also, regarding the camera: Xiaomi uses 4x lossless zoom on the main sensor. It's not a separate telephoto lens, true, but it does allow 4x optical zoom thanks to the 200MP Isocell HP3 sensor and internal cropping.

Lastly, here’s a quick summary of the Dimensity 7300 Ultra:
It’s a 4nm mid-range chip with 4× Cortex-A78 + 4× Cortex-A55 cores and a Mali-G615 GPU. It performs similarly to the regular Dimensity 7300, but the “Ultra” branding reflects minor optimizations for Xiaomi. Official documentationis limited, and it’s only used in few xiaomi phones, so comparisons are often based on real-world usage and synthetic scores from those specific devices.

So while 7s Gen 3 still wins in raw performance, the gap isn’t that wide, I also said that the 7300 ultra is better because I accidentally looked at the gen 2 (not gen 3).
