Xiaomi announces 12T Flagship Series from £499
Xiaomi today unveiled its latest flagship smartphone range to international markets – the Xiaomi 12T Series – comprising Xiaomi 12T Pro and Xiaomi 12T models.
Both Xiaomi 12T Series flagships boast pro-grade cameras, claims the manufacturer. Featuring a pro-grade 200MP imaging system and Xiaomi’s own advanced AI algorithms, the Xiaomi 12T Pro aims to provide high clarity, accurate night photography, and quick focusing.
The camera also boasts an in-sensor 2x zoom that can utilise the capabilities of the large 1/1.22″ sensor size, ideal for portrait shots. With Xiaomi ProCut and Ultra burst, Xiaomi 12T Pro helps you to intelligently crop and create professional-looking content. To unlock movie-making creativity, the Xiaomi 12T Pro also supports 8K video in full resolution.
Meanwhile, the Xiaomi 12T implements a triple camera array: a 108MP pro-grade primary camera, 8MP ultra-wide camera, and 2MP macro camera.
The Xiaomi 12T Pro is equipped with the best Snapdragon processor with leading 4nm TSMC manufacturing process and reduced power consumption, claims the manufacturer, while the Xiaomi 12T is powered by MediaTek’s leading chipset — MediaTek Dimensity 8100-Ultra.
Both phones have a large 5,000mAh battery and feature 120W HyperCharge. Both can be charged to 100% in as quickly as 19 minutes, and ready for up to 13.5 hours of screen-on time.
Xiaomi claims a mega viewing experience thanks to 6.67″ CrystalRes AMOLED display complete with 1220p resolution and over 68 billion colours. The display is also enhanced by smart features such as AdaptiveSync, which dynamically adjusts refresh rate based on content viewed.
Meanwhile, for all users who interact with their phones for pro-longed periods, Adaptive Reading mode reduces the amount of blue light emitted to improve eye comfort.
The Xiaomi 12T Series flagships sport a curve frosted back to reduce fingerprints on the back panel, along with a compact in-hand feel. It comes in three colours: Black, Silver, and Blue.
The Xiaomi 12T is available in two storage variants, 8GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB, with an RRP of £499 and £549. The Xiaomi 12T Pro has an RRP of £699.
