For the last few years, Google has been releasing new versions of Android in August. But this year, the search giant didn’t. The next version of Android is now expected to debut alongside the Pixel 8 series in October.

Partner OEMs have been running the Android 14 public beta program for their devices since August. The most notable ones are Oppo, OnePlus, and Xiaomi. All of them kickstarted their initiative in August starting with China.

Recently, OnePlus opened up its Android 14 beta program for global users. Now, even Xiaomi has joined the club.

In China, the Android 14 beta program by Xiaomi only covers Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro. However, for international markets, the company has also included Xiaomi 12T. We already knew that these three devices would be soon receiving the update back in August itself.

As usual, the beta software builds for the aforementioned smartphones are only available for select users. They are being exclusively rolled out to Mi Pilot testers.

Though the firmware files can be downloaded from Xiaomi servers by anyone, they cannot be installed on every device. Because the software build checks for the Xiaomi account, IMEI number, and serial number associated with the testers recruited by the company.

Thus, regular users will have to wait for some time to get their hands on the latest software. It may take weeks or even months after Android 14 goes official.

As for the MIUI version, it is still 14 though we have been hearing about MIUI 15 for a while. The next iteration of MIUI will likely arrive alongside the Xiaomi 14 series in November.

The post Android 14 beta for Xiaomi 13, 13 Pro, & 12T arrives for global markets appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi 12T series went official in the global market in October 2022. The lineup has two models, the Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro. In December, the company introduced Xiaomi 12T Pro Daniel Arsham Edition, a limited-edition phone in Europe. It appears that the 12T series has achieved impressive sales result, as Xiaomi founder and CEO Lei Jun took to Twitter to say, “We hit our annual Xiaomi 12T Pro sales target ahead of schedule!”

Since the Xiaomi 12T Pro sold faster than expected, Jun thanked the people for a giving a positive reception to the Xiaomi 12T Pro. The 12T and 12T Pro are affordable flagship phones that are priced at 599 euros and 749 euros, respectively, in Europe.

Like other smartphone brands, India is one of the major markets for Xiaomi. Last year, the company had released the Xiaomi 11T Pro in January in India. However, a recent report revealed that the company may not have plans to release the Xiaomi 12T and Xiaomi 12T Pro in the Indian market.

Xiaomi 12T, 12T Pro specifications

The Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 and Dimensity 8100-Ultra chipsets, respectively, power the Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro. The former comes with 8 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128 GB / 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, whereas the Pro edition offers 8 GB / 12 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128 GB / 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage.

The 12T has a 108-megapixel (main) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit. The 12T Pro has a 200-megapixel primary camera and the same auxiliary cameras. The other specs are same on both models.

The Xiaomi 12T series has a 6.67-inch AMOLED 120Hz display that offers a resolution of 1220 x 2712 pixels. Both devices have a 16-megapixel front and pack a 5,000mAh battery with 120W fast charging.

Last year, Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi 11T and Xiaomi 11T Pro in the global market. At the beginning of this year, the company released the Xiaomi 11T Pro in the Indian market. Later in October, the company announced the Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro globally. So far, there have been no rumours about the Xiaomi 12T series’ launch in India. It appears that the 12T and 12T Pro may not release in India.

When tipster Kacper Skrzypek was asked whether the Xiaomi 12Tv and Xiaomi 12T Pro would be released in India, he ruled out the possibility of the 12T Pro’s India release. Talking about the Xiaomi 12T, the tipster said that “there is an Indian variant for “plato” (12T) in OTA, but there were no ROMs for a long time.”

To those who are unaware, “plato” and “diting” are respective codenames for the Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro. Since there have been no ROMs for the Indian edition of the Xiaomi 12T, it appears that it will not release in India.

The Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro would have competed with affordable flagship phones priced around Rs 40,000 (~$483) in the Indian market. However, the company may have a different strategy to rival the affordable flagships from other brands in 2023.

Last year, Redmi released the Redmi Note 11 Pro and Note 11 Pro+ in the Chinese market. Both devices came equipped with the Dimensity 920 SoC. The Note 11 Pro duo was rebranded as the Xiaomi 11i and Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge in the Indian market.

A report from October claimed that the Redmi Note 12 Pro+, which debuted in China in the same month, will be rebranded as the Xiaomi 12i HyperCharge in the Indian market. Because the Redmi Note 12 Pro+, which will be available in India on January 5, is said to be identical to its Chinese counterpart, it is unclear whether the Xiaomi 12i HyperCharge will be available in India. Also, there is no word on the Xiaomi 12i.

The OPPO Reno9 Pro hitten the shelves a few days ago with three different variants: along the vanilla version with midrange-class specifications and the Pro+ flagship variant, there is the intermediate version OPPO Reno9 Pro with high-end specifications offered at an interesting price. Despite coming with a more affordable price than the Pro Plus variant, it still provides flagship-class performance and an amazing design. In the same price range, one of the best device out there is the Xiaomi 12T, the latest Xiaomi upper-midrange phone launched in the global market. A lot of people are wondering which of these phone is actually the best and we decided to help you find out through this article. So, if interested, you can go ahead and read this comparison between the main specifications of the OPPO Reno9 Pro and the Xiaomi 12T.

OPPO Reno9 Pro vs Xiaomi 12T

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?

A new report has revealed some interesting details regarding the Redmi K60E. The device is a part of the company’s K60 series, which was recently leaked via tipster Kacper Skryzpek. Now, a new report hints that the device might be a redesigned version of Xiaomi’s existing smartphone models.

The news arrives from Xiaomiui, which claimed that the device might be a reworked version of a Xiaomi 12T or Redmi K50S models. For those unaware, the upcoming K60E model could be a shortened name for the K60 Extreme model. The report claims that this model will be a successor to the Redmi K40S phone with all of the details arriving from MIUI codebase. This codebase also carried the ‘22127RK46C’ model number of the device, which was first shared by the Skryzpek leak that also revealed its ‘Rembrandt’ codename.

As per Xiaomiui, the Redmi K60E might be a redesigned K50S model. Notably, this phone is also a rebranded version of the Xiaomi 12T as well. The Chinese tech giant had rebranded the phone since the Xiaomi 12T model was not launched in China, but was available in certain other regions. It featured a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Ultra SoC, a FHD+ AMOLED display and a 5,000mAh battery that supports 120W fast charging report.

In other words, we can expect the Redmi K60E to feature some of the specifications of the K50S. For example, the company might bump the Dimensity 8100 Ultra to a Dimensity 8200 processor in the Redmi K60E. The report added that the company will only be releasing the K60E smartphone in the Chinese market. So stick around for more updates regarding this phone.

Earlier today (17th November 2022), the Xiaomi 12T series of high end smartphones were finally announced in the Philippines market. The lineup is the company’s flagship model that offers capable specs at a competitive price point, so let’s have a look.

The Chinese tech giant’s 12T series consists of two models, namely the Xiaomi 12T and the 12T Pro. Both models share a number of similarities as well as some key differences. In terms of design, the two 12T models have similar dimensions and also offer stereo speakers. On the front, both devices sport a 6.67 inch AMOLED display that has a 1220p resoluton, HDR10+ support, 900 nits of peak brightness, and up to 120Hz refresh rate with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection. The Xiaomi 12T Pro model also has Dolby Vision support for an improved viewing experience.

Under the hood, the 12T lineup pack a large 5,000mAh battery pack that supports up to 120W fast charging, which can charge the devices to full in just 20 minutes. On the rear, both phones have a triple camera setup. Although the Pro variant has a 200 megapixel primary sensor that is paired with an 8 megapixel ultra wide angle lens, and a 2 megapixel macro shooter. The base model has a 108 megapixel primary camera, but the two other sensors are the same as the Pro variant. Another notable difference between the two is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip on the 12T Pro and the MediaTek Dimensity 8100 Ultra SoC on the vanilla 12T.

The standard Xiaomi 12T starts from P26,999 (roughly 469 US Dollars), while the 12T Pro will retail for a price of P37,999 (roughly 660 US Dollars). The pre-orders will begin on November 18 and last till the 29th, with the brand also offering a free S1 Active smartwatch worth P8,999 (roughly 156 US Dollars) to those that pre-order the new smartphones.

Earlier this week, Xiaomi announced the Xiaomi 12T series globally. There are two models in the lineup this year, the Xiaomi 12T and the 12T Pro, and they directly succeed the Xiaomi 12 series models that were announced late last year. Given that there are two new models in the Xiaomi lineup, we thought it would be a good idea to compare these two devices and see how they differ from each other. 

If you look at the specs alone, there are very few differences between these two models. In fact, even in terms of their designs, the Xiaomi 12T looks identical to the Xiaomi 12T Pro. They share the same display and form factors, but there are some subtle differences when it comes to memory configurations and the processor underneath. 

So let’s take a closer look at the Xiaomi 12T vs Xiaomi 12T Pro in this comparison and see how they differ from each other. 

Xiaomi 12T vs Xiaomi 12T Pro

DESIGN

In terms of design, both phones are nearly identical. In fact, they both share a similar design profile as its Xiaomi 12 series predecessors announced last year. That doesn’t mean the design is bad, but if you were looking for a design refresh, you will be disappointed. 

So both the Xiaomi 12T and the 12T Pro feature rounded corners with a rectangular camera module housing three cameras inside. The primary camera is pretty large on both the models, which is not surprising given how the 12T Pro features one of the highest resolution cameras in the market right now – a 200MP sensor. On the front, the two phones share the same panel with a punch-hole camera on the top. 

Overall, in terms of the design alone, it will be extremely difficult to distinguish between the two models. Both have the same 163.1 x 75.9 x 8.6 mm dimensions, but the 12T Pro is a bit heavier at 205 grams vs 202 grams of the Xiaomi 12T. 

In terms of colors too, both phones have the exact same color variants, namely Black, Blue, and Silver.

DISPLAY

Another area where the Xiaomi 12T and the 12T Pro are identical is in terms of the display. The two phones share a 6.67-inch OLED screen featuring a 1.5K resolution of 1220 x 2712 pixels, a 120Hz refresh rate, and HDR10+ support. Notably, it looks like only the Xiaomi 12T Pro will come with Dolby Vision support. But this seems to be the only major differentiating factor between these two models’ displays.  

Both phones feature an under-display fingerprint scanner. 

SPECS

The biggest difference between the Xiaomi 12T and the 12T Pro will be found in the processor department. The Xiaomi 12T Pro comes with Qualcomm’s fastest processor of 2022, the Qualcomm SM8475 Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset clocked at 3.2GHz. On the other hand, the Xiaomi 12T comes with Mediatek’s fastest chip, the Dimensity 8100-Ultra clocked up to 2.85GHz. While the Snapdragon chip might have a slight advantage in terms of processing power, both chips are extremely capable and should deliver similar performance and graphics power. You should have no issues running high-intensive apps or games on both devices. 

In terms of available configurations too, there are some differences between these two devices. The Xiaomi 12T comes with only 8GB of RAM in 128GB and 256GB storage variants. On the other hand, the Xiaomi 12T Pro comes in 8GB and 12GB RAM models, with storage going up to 256GB. 

Since they are from the same 12T series, both models run on Android 12-based MIUI 13 UI. 

CONNECTIVITY

In terms of connectivity, there are some differences too. For example, the Xiaomi 12T Pro supports dual SIM but also supports eSIM which the 12T doesn’t. The Pro version gets Bluetooth 5.2 while the standard 12T gets the newer Bluetooth 5.3 support. 

The Xiaomi 12T Pro also brings Harmon Kardon tuning on its Dual speakers which the standard variant lacks. Other connectivity features like 360° Ambient light sensor, Flicker Sensor, and IR Blaster are common between the two phones. 

CAMERA

One of the biggest upgrades on the Xiaomi 12T Pro over its predecessors is in the camera department. The phone gets a massive 200MP primary camera at the back, supports by a 120-degree 8MP ultra wide-angle sensor and a 2MP macro shooter. The primary camera flaunts an f/1.69 aperture, with OIS, and an 8P lens. 

On the other hand, the standard variant gets a 108MP primary shooter with f/1.7 aperture and OIS (no 8P lens) along with the same 8MP ultra-wide and 2MP macro cameras from its Pro siblings. 

Notably, the 12T Pro’s 200MP primary camera will bin up to 16 pixels at a time to output extremely detailed 12.5MP images. Similarly, the 108-megapixel sensor on the 12T bins nine pixels at a time to output crisp 12MP photos. 

Another difference between the two models is the additional camera features on the Pro model. For example, the more expensive sibling adds Xiaomi ProCut and ProFocus features to its camera setup. The Pro model can also record videos at 8K 7680×4320 at 24fps and 4K 3840×2160 at 60fps while the standard model is limited to 4K 30fps video recording support. 

On the front, both phones feature a 20MP f/2.2 camera for selfies and video calls. 

BATTERY

The battery and charging technologies on both phones are identical. The Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro come with 5000mAh batteries with up 120W fast charging support which promises 100% in under 20 minutes! 

PRICE

The Xiaomi 12T starts at EUR 599 whereas the Pro variant starts at EUR 749 globally. 

VERDICT

Overall, the Xiaomi 12T Pro seems like a better buy among the two with a bunch of additional camera features and a slightly better processor too. That said, if you want to save a few bucks, the Xiaomi 12T is a capable device too, and won’t disappoint for the value it brings at EUR 600.

We witnessed the launch of numerous smartphones in September. We expect the trend to continue in October as well.

As of writing this article, three brands had scheduled launches. Whereas, the remaining phones on the list are based on leaks and rumors.

Anyway, we expect almost every handset on the list to go official in October. In fact, even more devices that are not on the list could also release.

These forthcoming phones are spread across different price categories. Unsurprisingly, they are also targeted at different consumers.

With that out of the way, let’s take a look at all the expected handset launches in the next few weeks.

Upcoming Smartphones in October 2022

Back in December 2022, Xiaomi debuted their current flagship Xiaomi 12 series in their domestic market. The device later made its way overseas with models like the vanilla Xiaomi 12 and the Xiaomi 12 Pro.

Now, it appears that the brand will soon be launching more devices in the global market under the Xiaomi 12 series moniker as revealed by an EEC listing.

According to a MySmartPrice report, multiple upcoming Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices have been spotted on Russia’s EEC certification database. Starting with the Xiaomi devices, they have the model numbers 22071212AG and 22081212UG.

In a previous leak, devices with the exact same model numbers were said to be the Xioami 12T and the Xiaomi 12T Pro Hypercharge. The listing does not reveal any specifications of the upcoming devices, however, going by the previous report, we know that these smartphones will be the rebranded variant of the China-exclusive Redmi K50S and the Redmi K50S Pro Hypercharge. Unfortunately, not much is known about those upcoming smartphones either other than they will come powered by the recently revealed Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipsets.

Moving on, a new tablet from the brand has also been spotted on the database with model number 22081283G. Other than that, a Redmi device carrying the model number 220733SFG, and two new POCO smartphones with model numbers 22071219CG and 2207117BPG have also appeared on the certification database. We are currently unsure which devices these model numbers belong to, however, we will keep an eye out for any new developments on the matter, so stay tuned.

Although the Redmi K50 series was launched only in April, it seems that the ambitious Xiaomi company is already brewing up its successor, the Redmi K50S series to be released soon in the second half of 2022.

A report by xiaomiui.net has recently uncovered the flagship device models that will be launched soon by Xiaomi later in the year. The team that reported on the leak has gotten the info from Xiaomi’s MIUI software codebase. 

According to the report, Xiaomi will be launching a total of 5 models from the Redmi K50S series and Xiaomi 12T series this year which are respectively the Redmi K50S Pro, the standard Redmi K50S, the standard Xiaomi 12T, Xiaomi 12T Pro, and Xiaomi 12T Pro HyperCharge.

The codebase also reveals the model number, region availability and processor that is running under the hood of these 5 upcoming flagships.

Let’s start with the “Pro” models first. The Redmi K50S Pro is to be announced in China under the model number 22081212C. The device is to be equipped with Qualcomm’s upcoming yet-to-be-announced flagship processor, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1+. 

Moving onto the Xiaomi 12T Pro, the device is said to be a rebrand of the Redmi K50S Pro but for the global market as it shares a similar model number 22081212G instead. The Xiaomi 12T Pro will also be available in Japan as well but with the model number 22081212R instead. 

However, what is interesting is that Xiaomi is supposedly bringing a “Hypercharge” version of the Redmi K50S Pro, called the Xiaomi 12T Pro Hypercharge. This model seems to be not available in China and will be exclusive to the global market under the model number 22081212UG.

Since the Xiaomi 12T Pro is a rebrand of the Redmi K50S Pro, the Xiaomi 12T Pro will be sporting the same Snapdragon 8 Gen1+ as its Chinese counterpart as well.

As for the standard models, the standard Redmi K50S will be launched in China under the model number 22071212AC whereas the Xiaomi 12T will be launched in the global market under the model number 22071212AG. The Xiaomi 12T is to be a rebranded version of the Redmi K50S launched for the global market.

Gathering from the codebase, it seems that the Xiaomi 12T/Redmi K50S will be powered by an unknown MediaTek Dimensity chipset instead of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1+.

It seems that Xiaomi is really trying to push into the upper mid-range and flagship premium segment hard in 2022, and for updates on the latest releases by Xiaomi, stay tuned to Gizmochina’s coverage on the latest news of gadgets and devices from China.
