Xiaomi 12 Pro Review: Xiaomi's high-end transformation road always worth believing in the dreamer

People are accustomed to using "extreme" to describe a thing to reach the highest attainment, to reach the extreme is the highest evaluation for a certain field. But for the cell phone industry, the ultimate is the goal that is constantly being broken through, and even like a boundary, is to let the cell phone manufacturers constantly chasing the direction. For millet, running in the blood of the pursuit of the ultimate has never changed, as this millet brought the new flagship model millet 12 Pro, you see and do not see still surging.

Millet 12 Pro dreamer's story

In today's wide variety of cell phone market, the main shape of the cell phone has not much ground, because the shape of the family has a remarkable point, "value" of this indicator has become a standard. At first glance, you may not be impressed by the form factor of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, and it's true that the "engineering student" label has always been Xiaomi's strength, but it also makes its weaknesses stand out. Xiaomi 12 Pro launched four color schemes, black, blue, purple, wild green, all using a solid color design, solid color is still Xiaomi's persistence, while this time also abandoned the pearlescent, gradient and other negative, pure color with the color relationship of the Morandi color family, reducing the purity of the color, eliminating the visual impact of the highly saturated color block, the phone's pure refinement to the comfort of the view, as if the vase faded The phone's purity is refined to a comfortable viewing experience, as if the porcelain vase had faded away, precipitating a proper sense of beauty.

Xiaomi 12 Pro Blue Edition

The blue Xiaomi 12 Pro we got has some slight graininess in touch, and the glass material brings a special feeling between smoothness and friction. The original wild green color, on the other hand, uses a special Haptex environmentally friendly PU vegan leather, so it is more elegant in appearance and touch, and I believe it is also a better choice for winter use. Camera module part, you can clearly see the golden ratio design arrangement, overall harmony and unity, effectively integrating the lens module with the back, without appearing abrupt.

Xiaomi 12 Pro delicate open cut

In addition, the Xiaomi 12 Pro also continues the exquisite craftsmanship of its predecessor in the details, which can be felt in the large R corners of the bezel in line with the screen and the seamless splicing between the materials. I was most impressed with the openings in the body, including the upper and lower dual speakers and SIM card slots and mic openings, the shape is more dynamic, so that people can appreciate in the details of Xiaomi's ultimate pursuit of smooth and delicate craftsmanship.

Millet 12 Pro screen quality pulls full

Next we talk about this screen of the millet 12 Pro. 6.73-inch second-generation low-power 2K (3200x1440) screen, the choice of the most sought-after Samsung E5 material, not only more energy-saving, and at the same time, by the pixel layer and the touch layer is then covered with a special prismatic structure, by physical means Let the light emitting more concentrated, so as to improve the overall human eye sensitivity, peak brightness reached 1500nit, while power consumption is reduced by 16%, which is also one of the secrets of its high efficiency and power saving.

Xiaomi 12 Pro screen quality pulls full weight

1.07 billion colors color display, professional factory color calibration, and PPI 522, which meets the flagship standards of the configuration Xiaomi 12 Pro all include it, which is naturally not the part we need to say more. The most worthwhile thing to say about this screen is still the second-generation LTPO Smart Dynamic Refresh effect that it is able to realize. Its role is that when we are in different use scenarios, the screen refresh rate will be based on the current screen to carry out intelligent regulation of the frame rate, from 120Hz to 1Hz, through the changes in the screen to choose the optimal frame rate, for example, in the game can be realized in the 90Hz or 120Hz effect so that the game experience is more fluent, in the reading of 1Hz dynamic frame rate to better protect our eyes to avoid eye fatigue. These are all subjective feelings that can only be experienced after the actual experience, but the changes it brings are "true-to-life" and excellent.

Of course, the 480Hz touch response during gaming allows you to operate more responsively and supports up to 10 fingers of 480Hz, so imagine if your opponents are using such a gaming tool, you'll be out of your league. Not only that, for chicken games, higher resolution can realize more detailed operation, Xiaomi 12 Pro's 10 times touch super resolution can increase the original 3200x1440 resolution to 32000x14400, so that the touch control is more accurate, and the pressure of the gun is nothing more than a basic operation.

Here I would also like to mention that the X-axis linear motor used in this generation of Xiaomi 12 Pro is an excellent experience, including the system vibration feedback as well as the vibration mimicry experience in the game, it is recommended to feel the phone after getting it, because after all, usually we usually turn off this feature in order to save power, and you may not be able to turn it off this time. Meanwhile, the four-unit speaker crossover program used on the Xiaomi Tablet 5 Pro has also been applied to the Xiaomi 12 Pro, with a reasonable distribution of high and low units as well as Harman Kardon's professional tuning, which brings a more detailed and shocking sound effect to the Xiaomi 12 Pro, making gaming and movie-watching an immersive experience.

All of this is just a little bit of research and development that went into the Xiaomi 12 Pro phone, and the following is the centerpiece of the heavyweight configuration. As officially announced, Xiaomi 12 Pro, as a domestic phone equipped with the new generation of Snapdragon 8 flagship mobile platform, gives full play to the characteristics of the platform, so that we can see the 4nm process, Armv9 instruction set to bring a new experience of use. I believe that these people already know a lot, we will not go into too much detail, but the score, frame rate test a can not be missing.

Millet 12 Pro An Rabbit Running Score

Through the running score we can see that the millet 12 Pro love An Rabbit Running Score obtained a good score of 1039490 points, whether it is the effectiveness or the tuning, can be completely new Snapdragon 8 advantages show out, the same three from the set of architectures, Armv9 will be large and small cores of the performance of the performance of the unprecedented effect, but also lead to Including the AI engine, CPU, GPU performance has been a qualitative leap, of course, this is also inseparable from the synergistic effect of the new generation of UFS3.1, read and write rate expansion also brings more computing space for the core, whether it is the application to open or the use of the feeling of a more obvious enhancement.

Xiaomi 12 Pro performance dog frame rate test data

We are using the "Original God" this game as a frame rate test, you can see that the special effects of pulling the full game to be able to achieve a stable 55.8fps effect, which is a lot of cell phones can not be achieved for the 120fps game to support the 120fps game to support the 120fps game to be able to achieve a stable 55.8fps effect, this is not achieved for many cell phones. For games that support 120fps, the effect is even more prominent, and the stable image of the battlefield also ensures that users can play more normally.

Xiaomi 12 Pro long game temperature control performance

At the same time in the temperature control we also tested, the game 15 minutes at the chip temperature of 44.9 degrees Celsius, the overall temperature of 39.8 degrees Celsius. After half an hour of play, the temperature on the chip was 44.4 degrees Celsius, and the overall temperature was 40.3 degrees Celsius. You can see that the difference between before and after is not very big, the cooling temperature control is also done quite well, and the game screen frame rate is very stable, which is worried about the performance of the new Snapdragon 8 friends, should be able to eat a pill of peace of mind.

The Xiaomi 12 Pro comes standard with a 120W second charging head

Besides performance, the battery is also an important consideration for many friends when buying a phone, but until there is a quantum leap in battery technology, size and capacity will remain key to determining a phone's battery life. Xiaomi 12 Pro uses a 4600mAh single-cell battery, which requires a larger battery capacity in the same volume, compared with the current generally applicable dual-cell, so that although it increases the cost, but both in the capacity and in the fast-charging efficiency are more advantageous.

120W wired second charging 18 minutes to fill 100%

120W wired second charging, 50W wireless second charging, 18 minutes to charge 100%, I believe that in the past two years Xiaomi's technological breakthroughs in the battery we all have witnessed ****. Achieve this goal in fact also paid a huge R & D costs, the millet 12 Pro equipped with self-research Surge P1 chip, as a new member of the Surge family, let us see the millet's self-research strength, alone fill the 100W + single core industry blank this matter, it is worth to get inside and outside of the industry affirmation, from now on, your cell phone charging is not only swifter, but also smarter.

The performance after turning on the ultra-wide-angle mode is also reassuring, the image quality is stable, and the distortion is properly controlled, used to take ultra-wide-angle photos of the Xiaomi 12 Pro is still very trustworthy.

Xiaomi 12 Pro Night Shot Samples

In night mode, the Xiaomi 12 Pro still performs well, with proper noise control and excellent highlight suppression, giving the image a more natural night effect. Here we have to mention the Sony IMX707 ultra-sensitive CMOS behind, which is also the world premiere of the CMOS, 1/1.28″ large sensitivity size, 4in1 after the single pixel can be up to 2.44 microns, so that the light-sensitive ability to significantly improve, with the Night Lords 2.0 algorithm, so that every piece of night scene is full of a sense of story.

The actual photo experience is the most obvious lies in the photo speed, whether it is day or night, press the shutter to imaging have reached the effect of instantaneous shooting, especially in the night scene on the photo, do not need to remain stable for a long time to be able to film, instantly you can get the picture you want to record, even in the dark environment, the photo time will not be too long, the continuous shooting speed is faster than ordinary.

Millet's dream is big, please continue to chase the dream

Before the launch of the millet 12 series, many people will question whether millet's new digital flagship can continue the glory of the previous two generations, has always been millet impact on the high-end market of the bottom of the air is there, but always missing a little bit of determination, in the price and quality of how to trade-offs between the old rice and how to compromise between the old rice powder and the new users in the national brand and high-end positioning of how to trade-offs between the old rice powder and how to compromise between the old rice powder and the new users in the national brand How to weigh between the price and quality, how to compromise between the old rice fans and new users, in the national brand and high-end positioning, millet faced with the problem is very different from other manufacturers. It wants to fly higher and let the world see more, but it also has a "burden" that is difficult to part with. Xiaomi 12 Pro's birth let us see the millet in the face of doubt and determination, it is using plowing to accumulate energy, it is using down-to-earth in the casting of high platforms, in today's turbulent cell phone industry, you can still always believe in a dreamer's story, I hope that Xiaomi "do not recognize", do not admit defeat, do not resign, do not admit to goat.
