The Xiaomi 12 is the base model flagship offering from the brand, which gets all the benefits of the generational upgrade, starting with the new sleek and understated design, highlighted by the subtle matte finish that makes the colours of the back panel pop up and shines. You also get a super responsive 120Hz AMOLED display, which features support for both HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. The real upgrade comes in the camera department, though, with lots of new hardware and software improvements featured throughout the lineup. There is even a stereo speaker setup that was specifically tuned by Harman Kardon to sound the best.
