The Xiaomi 12 Pro and OnePlus 10 Pro flagships have been paired in the series of durability and stress tests, appearing in JerryRigEverything’s video. Both the Xiaomi 12 Pro and the OnePlus 10 Pro come with similar components like their chipset and displays. However, the OnePlus flagship appeared to have performed woefully when it went through the durability tests. On the other hand, the Xiaomi flagship seems to have weathered the storm in the new video, coming out pretty fine.

Zach Nelson released the latest version of his JerryRigEverything video featuring the Xiaomi 12 Pro. It performed well in most of the stages including scratches (level 6), burn, and bend tests. The burn test produced a white mark on the 12 Pro’s OLED display, The razor scraping revealed that the branding on one side of the device for its quad stereo showed susceptibility to heavy wear and tear.

One of the most rigorous tests in the JerryRigEverything video is the bend test. A device could possibly unravel under the bending process. However, the Xiaomi 12 Pro earned its stripes over the OnePlus 10 Pro in this area. It has to be noted that the 12 Pro remained intact when a bend from the back was attempted. It however emitted some clicking noises in all the instances it withstood the back bending. The screen of the device remained on during the entire process and was seemingly unaffected overall.

In comparing the optics of the two devices in the JerryRigEverything tests, the Xiaomi 12 Pro fared better than the OnePlus 10 Pro across several segments. The two smartphones are 2022 flagship models from Xiaomi and OnePlus respectively. They are both powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.

Xiaomi recently announced its 2022 flagships, the Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi 12X, and Xiaomi 12 Pro. However, the series is limited to the Chinese market and rumors revealed that the series may go global in February or March. Now, ahead of any announcements, the series has emerged on the Indonesia Telecom certification portal confirming its sooner global release.

The Xiaomi 12 global models carry the model numbers 2201123G for the Xiaomi 12, and 2201122G for the 12 Pro. The 12X may not land in the global markets, at least as of now. Unfortunately, the certification site doesn’t reveal any specifications of the series.

If we take a look at the phones launched in China, the Xiaomi 12 has a 6.28-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, and the Pro sports a 6.73-inch 2K AMOLED panel. The duo has a triple camera system but the vanilla has a 50MP + 13MP + 5MP setup, while the Pro has a 50MP + 50MP + 50MP array.

Under the hood, the phones are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC paired with up 12GB of RAM and 256GB of in-built storage. The vanilla has a 4,500mAh with support for 67W wired and 50W wireless fast charging support.

On the other hand, the Pro model packs a slightly larger 4,600mAh battery with 120W wired and the same 50W wireless fast charging support. The phones run on Android 11 out of the box with MIUI 13 on the top.

Xiaomi 12 Pro first teardown emerges, providing our first look at the internals

Jed John Ikoba — Thu, 30 Dec 2021 01:30:38 +0000

We have just spotted the first-ever teardown of the Xiaomi 12 Pro that was unveiled on Tuesday in China. The premium flagship series is yet to even go on sale but a Chinese blogger has posted a video teardown/review of the Pro model on China’s top video-sharing website Bilibili.

The video provides us with our first look at the internals of the 12 Pro. There is no doubt that the Xiaomi 12 Pro comes with a top-notch design just like the rest of the lineup. The teardown also shows the device equally features well-arranged internals. The device retains a sandwich structure with a three-stage design after the rear cover is removed. Xiaomi also included a heat dissipation film, a copper foil, and silicone grease, as well as a 2900mm2 super VC soaking plate to ensure the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 doesn’t allow the device to heat up excessively.

The Mi 12 Pro is the first smartphone to pack a Sony IMX 707 sensor with 7P+ Optical image stabilization and we get to see the sensor for the first time. Also, the device features a 50MP Samsung JN1 sensor which is a portrait lens and a 50MP ultra-wide angle sensor.

In terms of flash memory and RAM, the teardown video shows that both the LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 flash storage are supplied by SK Hynix.

Another impressive hardware feature spotted on the teardown video is the four-unit crossover speakers (high + low) arranged diagonally up and down. At the same time, the X-axis linear motor is also a circle larger than those on most Android phones with a vibration comparable to that of the iPhone. The device is also shown to feature a more expensive ultra-thin under-display fingerprint solution.
