Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos
Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G Overview
Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G - another inexpensive hit?
Although the Chinese company Xiaomi has been trying for the last few years to radically change the vision of the brand in the eyes of the audience, it is still associated precisely with affordable smartphones. Fortunately, the developer has not forgotten how to make devices that are optimal in terms of price and quality, because the hero of today's review belongs to this category of devices.
The appearance of the phablet is more than good for the value segment. The photomodules on the rear glass panel almost do not protrude from the body, only the lower display frame is wide, the colors of the devices and the side fingerprint scanner look harmonious. The 6.79-inch IPS screen is also not considered the weak point of the phone. If the brightness level is not the most outstanding, then the FullHD + resolution, 90-Hz refresh rate of the picture is quite relevant today. There are also no serious problems with the color reproduction of the image.
The manufacturer's approach to technical specifications is very interesting. The latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset with support for 5G networks, although it belongs to the low-budget line, is built on the ARM Cortex-A78 core architecture. The overall performance is pleasing, together with 4GB / 6GB / 8GB of RAM and the Adreno 613 video adapter, the CPU crosses the bar of 500 thousand points in the AnTuTu benchmark, runs all existing Android games. Of course, this is not a flagship solution, so graphic presets in truly resource-intensive Honkai: Star Rail or Fortnite are better to reduce to low-medium. There is no savings on the amount of permanent memory either. In addition, if 128/256GB of ROM is not enough, you can resort to using MicroSD cards.
Autonomy is an important criterion for choosing a mobile assistant. The unit has no problems with it, since the 5000mAh battery often shows up to 10 hours of active screen time. The charging power can no longer be praised, because it was a modest 18W. It is unlikely that the buyer of the gadget will demand from him the photo capabilities of a camera phone, however, the installed 50- and 2-megapixel cameras cannot be called useless. They are useful not only for capturing the text of documents, but also for creating pleasant-looking daytime portraits and landscapes without excess noise. But the sound of a single speaker disappoints with both volume and unbalanced frequency response. NFC contactless payments are present, but not in all regional versions, but there is always an infrared port and a proprietary MIUI shell based on Android 13. Thus, the device should appeal to people who want good functionality for a reasonable price.
