      people wil not buy since new phone in the market.. they just buy phone when there phone got old or broken..

        Anonymous, 05 Jul 2022They are not sub-brands like realme and oneplus. Yes they are. Xiaomi is the primary company and Redmi and Poco are sub brands within same company.

Even for cheap SE. Good luck ever getting anything remotely close to that from equally priced Android phones. Having to pay 1200€ to get that is just absurd.

              Cameras with high end specs that happen to make phone calls, send texts and browse the internet.

                I really hope they have an IP68 rating for the 12S Pro. If they do, I'm buying it. Yes the telephoto sensor leaves much to be desired with the 2x magnification but the colour temperature will remain the same. The front camera however remains 20MP with 1080p/60. It should have been upgraded to the 1/2.5" 50MP sensor that Honor used for it's Magic 4 Pro's UW camera. Then the sensor would have a 4K/60 option. They should also provide details about the UW and telephoto sensor that they used.

                      Interested to see if this phone with Snapdragon 8 gen 1 plus soc could play Genshin impact max settings 60 fps.

                      Snapdragon 888 and original 8 gen 1 had enough power but because poor cooling performance those would throttle fast.

                                        they could have at least upgraded the telephoto to 3x...and added an OIS in the telephoto
