Recently, MIUI 13 logo appeared in some of the stock apps of MIUI. At the same time, multiple videos demonstrating new features also made their way through the same medium. It appears the device in those videos could be the unreleased Xiaomi 12 Pro.
According to Xiaomiui, the smartphone shown in the MIUI 13 first look videos might be a Xiaomi 12 Pro. That’s because there’s no other phone from the company with such a front design.
Going by the videos, the handset will have a quad-curved display, however, the screen will not be as dramatic as on the Mi 11 series. Hence, it will have slightly thicker top and bottom bezels.
Most importantly, the device in the videos appears to have an under-display camera, which Xiaomi calls CUP (Camera Under Panel). This is why the phone is thought to be Xiaomi 12 Pro as it was earlier rumored to feature an in-screen camera like the Xiaomi MIX 4.
Xiaomiui also suggests that the smartphone may come equipped with a piezoelectric speaker like the original Mi MIX. Because the videos don’t show a physical earpiece. Anyway, as of now, there’s no mention of this component in the MIUI code.
The Xiaomi 12 series is expected to go official in the coming days. Despite that, we are yet to learn their design a well as most of the specs. There have been multiple case and screen protector leaks in the past few days, but they don’t tell us the whole story.
