The Xiaomi 12S, 12S Pro, and 12S Ultra are the three smartphone models Xiaomi has introduced today for the Chinese market. With these new models, the company emphasizes photography heavily.

Xiaomi emphasizes its collaboration with Leica, a renowned specialist, on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra’s camera design. The primary Sony IMX989 50.3 MP sensor is the device’s crowning achievement since it stands out from the competition in several aspects.

It measures one inch to capture more detail and light and includes an aspherical lens for more excellent picture quality at the corners of the photos. It shoots 12.5 MP images by default with pixel fusion to enhance performance in low-light conditions. A 48 MP telephoto lens and a 48 MP ultra-wide-angle Sony IMX586 module are also included.

A 6.73-inch LTPO AMOLED screen with a QHD+ resolution, an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120 Hz, compatibility for Dolby Vision and HDR10+, and a 10-bit color depth round out the smartphone’s other features. 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 256 or 512 GB of storage are used with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC. A 4,860 mAh battery with 67 W cable charging, 50 W induction charging, and 10 W reverse wireless charging is in charge of providing autonomy.

The Xiaomi 12S and Xiaomi 12S Pro use a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 CPU carved in 4nm and a less expensive Sony IMX707 primary camera sensor for those with the tightest budgets.

The Xiaomi 12S’s 4,500 mAh battery has the same charging perks as the Ultra model’s but without reverse wireless charging. With a connected power of up to 120 W, the Xiaomi 12S Pro is a powerful device that can swiftly recharge its 4,600 mAh battery.

While the Xiaomi 12S regular plays the compactness card with a 6.28-inch screen, the Xiaomi 12S Pro sports the same display as the Xiaomi 12S Ultra. However, it gains HDR10+, adjustable refresh rate up to 120 Hz, and P3 color gamut coverage at the expense of 1440p in favor of 1080p and Dolby Vision.

Currently, we are awaiting news on potential availability in Africa.
