Xiaomi introduced the 12S and 12S Pro smartphones at an event in China, as it had promised. The Xiaomi 12S features a 6.28-inch FHD+ flexible OLED screen, and 120Hz refresh rate, the same as the predecessor, and the 12S Pro comes with a 6.73-inch 2K Samsung E5 OLED 1-120Hz LTPO display with support for HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, same as the 12 Pro.
The main difference is that these are powered by Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoCs, compared to Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. There is also Xiaomi 12 Pro that comes in a Dimensity version, powered by the latest Dimensity 9000+ SoC. Except for the Dimensity version, the Snapdragon models feature imaging systems jointly developed by Xiaomi and Leica, containing Leica Summicron lenses, and supporting Leica imaging profiles.
Xiaomi 12S Series “co-engineered with Leica” brings authentic “Leica Image Look” to a smartphone, said the company. Xiaomi has replaced the IMX766 in the Xiaomi 12 with the Sony IMX707 in the Xiaomi 12S, the same sensor present in the 12 Pro and the 12S Pro.
The 12S has a 4,500mAh battery with 67W fast charging and the 12S Pro has a 4,600mAh battery with 120W single-cell fast charging. These feature 50W wireless charging and 10W reverse wireless charging, the same as the predecessor. The Xiaomi 12 Pro Dimensity Edition has a more extensive, 5160mAh battery with 67W fast charging, but it doesn’t support wireless charging.
