Design

The most impressive design here belongs to the OPPO Reno9 Pro. First of all, it is one of the thinnest phones in the world, with a thickness of just 7.2 mm. It is also very lightweight as it weighs just 174 grams. Further, its rear side is very elegant with its refined color options and a minimalistic camera module including sensors placed directly on the rear cover. Last but not least, on the front, it has a curved screen at the sides, just like the most expensive Android phones out there. The Xiaomi 12T is not much attractive in terms of design: it has a thicker and heavier body, a flat display, it is not the most beautiful phone you can get. So, if you mind about the design, you know what to choose.

Display

Even though they are not flagship displays, the panels of these phones are pretty impressive. But the one found on the Xiaomi 12T is a bit more interesting. It is one of the first displays with a 1.5K resolution of 1220 x 2712 pixels and it is an AMOLED panel able to show up to 68 billion colors. It comes with a diagonal of 6.67 inches, a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint reader. With the OPPO Reno9 Pro, you get an AMOLED display able to show up to one billion colors with a diagonal of 6.7 inches, a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2412 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint scanner. Note that only the Xiaomi 12T comes with stereo speakers, while the Reno 9 Pro has a mono speaker.

Specs & Software

The processor found on the Xiaomi 12T is slightly better than the one found on the OPPO Reno9 Pro, but the difference is just marginal. On the other hand, the OPPO Reno9 Pro has a higher quantity of RAM: 16 GB instead of just 8 GB, and it is a lot more important than the difference between the two chipsets. Anyway, the OPPO Reno9 Pro is powered by the Dimensity 8100 Max mobile platform by MediaTek sporting an octa-core architecture and built with a 5 nm production process. The chipset is composed of four Cortex A78 performance cores running at a max frequency of 2.85 GHz, four Cortex A55 CPUs running at 2 GHz, and a Mali G610 MC6 GPU: the same configuration as the Dimensity 8100 Ultra found on the Xiaomi 12T. As we said, the RAM is different, and we add that the internal storage is different too: the Reno 9 Pro gets up to 512 GB, while the Xiaomi 12T stops at 256 GB.

Camera

The Xiaomi 12T has a more interesting rear camera department because it sports OIS on its 108 MP main camera, but the OPPO Reno9 Pro has a better 50 MP main sensor, as well as a better 32 MP selfie shooter.

Battery

With the Xiaomi 12T, you can get a bigger battery and a longer battery life: the capacity of the battery is 5000 mAh instead of just 4500 mAh found on the Reno 9 Pro. Further, it is able to charge quicker thanks to 120W fast charging, while the OPPO Reno9 Pro supports 67W fast charging.

Price

You need at least $500/€470 in order to purchase the OPPO Reno9 Pro, while the Xiaomi 12T starts from about $552/€520 at the actual change. Which one would you pick?
