Xiaomi is giving its flagship smartphone series a facelift with the release of the Xiaomi 12T series. The phone series has got released on 6th October in China. The series is an effort from Xiaomi's side to improve the specifications of the internal components and rear camera series. Let’s take a look at the key specs, pros, and cons of the Xiaomi 12T Pro.

Key Features of Xiaomi 12T Pro

Design

The device is 163.1mm high, 75.9mm wide, and 8.6mm thick. It weighs about 205g.

Although the new finishes aren't nearly as lovely to look at as the dark grey of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, there isn't much difference in design compared to the 12 Pro.

The ordinary black tone of the new 12T Pro seems to be somewhat unremarkable and run-of-the-mill. However, the phone may also be purchased in silver and blue. Both also lack the sophisticated and elegant finish of the grey from the previous generation. Despite this, it has a certain charm that makes it rather appealing.

The rear panel also has a light frosting, ostensibly designed to prevent fingerprints and grime from sticking to it. Unfortunately, oil stains and fingerprints continued to emerge, so it would be wise to put a case just on the phone. 

The front screen is perfectly flat, which indicates the designer's intention to make the product as useful as possible. It offers an even surface that is wider to write on, and there will be less of a chance of making phantom or unintended touches on the display's edges.

Display

In terms of the display, the specifications are nothing out of the ordinary, at least not for a flagship phone. This implies that the huge AMOLED display, which is 6.67 inches in size, can provide refresh rates of up to 120Hz, and the refresh rate can also be adjusted, at least to some degree.

However, in contrast to other top-tier displays, this one does not adjust on a granular level down to 1 Hz. Instead, the refresh rate shifts between 30Hz, 60Hz, 90Hz, and 120Hz based on what is being watched on the screen at any time. The touch sampling rate is the display can reach up to 480Hz.

Regardless, it has more than enough going for it to be successful in its endeavours. This includes contrasts and brightness levels sufficient for HDR content, as well as certification for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision.

The resolution, however, is not quite standard since it falls between fullHD+ and QuadHD+. It has a resolution of 2712 by 1220, which translates to more than 420 pixels per inch and should indicate that it produces good and clean graphics. At the very least, based on my first thoughts, it seems to have a sufficient level of sharpness.

Performance and Hardware

The Xiaomi 12T Pro is powered by Qualcomm's most advanced smartphone CPU, the 4nm power-efficient Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 featuring up to 3.2GHz clock speed. The chipset is combined with Qualcomm® Adreno™ GPU and 7th Gen Qualcomm® AI Engine.

You have previously seen this piece of silicon in devices such as the Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro and OnePlus 10T. According to Geekbench 5, the 12T Pro reported 1305 for single-core and 4219 for multi-core, showing that it comes with a powerful CPU that should be able to handle almost any task.

12T Pro comes in three variants: 8GB of RAM combined with 128GB or 256GB of storage, and 12 GB of RAM with 256GB. It has LPDDR5 RAM. The storage is blessed with UFS 3.1 data transfer technology.

MIUI 13 is powered by Android 12 and comes preinstalled on the Xiaomi 12T Pro, which is the operating system. You might not be the greatest fan of this program, mostly because it automatically installs a significant amount of bloatware whenever it's started.

Battery and Charger

The 5000 mAh battery capacity shown here is quite encouraging to see in a product. That is a hefty size, and typically, Android phones with such a cell inside provide a solid day of battery life. At the very least, it is notable for being bigger than the battery included with the Xiaomi 12 Pro, which had a capacity of 4600mAh.

Cameras

Rear Cameras

Three cameras make up the rear camera series of 12T Pro. Since the primary camera is 200MP, you can zoom in and still get great detail. This lens has a 1/1.22" 2x zoom with an f/1.69 aperture that works well for portraiture and effectively separates the subject from the backdrop.

It has an 8MP lens with an aperture of f/2.2 and a 120-degree field-of-view for ultrawide shots. There is also a 2MP macro lens with f/2.4 aperture, which although having a lesser resolution, nevertheless has superb visual quality.

Final Verdict

The Xiaomi 12T Pro is a unique device. Smartphones, in general, are at a point where the camera is undergoing the most significant evolution. That appears to be the case, but Xiaomi deserves credit for extracting every last performance drop from its SoC. It performs incredibly well for gaming and other high-load applications, which is much more amazing, given the price.

The camera setup is generally good, but the main camera is the show's star. It produces colourful, engaging photographs that you can confidently share on social media. The video quality is also fairly high, and this phone may be utilized to create content without appearing amateurish. On the whole, smartphone lovers will be greatly intrigued by the features of the latest flagship phone Xiaomi 12T Pro.
