Earlier today, Xiaomi unveiled its latest lineup of flagship smartphones, including the Xiaomi 12, 12 Pro, and the Xiaomi 12X. The phones were revealed with extensive information and details about their specs and features. But you might’ve missed one feature of the Xiaomi 12 Pro that’s quite quirky.
The Xiaomi 12 Pro comes equipped with a bezel-less display leaving little to no room for sensors to be fitted on the front panel. However, the company has found a way around this problem as they’ve equipped the 12 Pro with Goodix’s first in-display light sensor.
The sensor provides an interesting functionality in the Xiaomi 12 Pro enabling it to adjust brightness and color intensity by detecting the color temperature of the ambient light. Other than the usual auto-brightness and color adjustments, the sensor also helps the device when it comes to photography by minimizing the interference of screen light and allows hardware-level high-precision measurement of correlated color temperature and illuminance. Additionally, the sensor also works as a proximity detector.
The sensor adds to the impressive spec sheet of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, which already consists of a 6.73-inch 2K+ LTPO AMOLED with HDR10+, 521 ppi pixel density, and a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the device houses a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC, which is be clubbed together with 8GB or 12GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. The device is powered by a 4500mAh battery, supporting Xiaomi’s latest 120W fast charging technology.
The Xiaomi 12 Pro comes with three 50MP snappers in the camera department comprised of 50MP IMX707 primary (1/1.28″, 1.22µm), 50MP telephoto, and 50MP ultrawide cameras.
The Xiaomi 12 lineup’s real-world performance will soon be revealed with all its quirks and features as the device is slated to go on sale starting December 31st in China. So, stay tuned for more.
