    Xiaomi 12 warms up to 38-39C very quickly just because of the data transfer over WiFi/LTE. It's a very hot and uncomfortable to use phone. A waste of money.

      I brought a xioami redmi note 5 back in the day ...not a good idea...l brought a xioami redmi 10s..thought they would have improved...didn't...more fool me...so never again...

        Battery life is average... Which is my only disappointed for this phone & reason not to buy it

          rocha17, 22 Mar 2022it s not a problem now, it works flawlessly from miui 12.5,... moreThere are many comments from buyers in China about the screen not switching off during calls on the Xiaomi 12 and it is also mentioned in this review so it is clearly not working flawlessly. This is likely to be due to problems with the virtual proximity sensor. It definitely would be better if they went with a hardware based solution like basically all other companies do on their mid to high end devices. They must cost a thing of nothing so why not?

              The main Issue is the absence of a physical Proximity sensor. Calling is a basic feature for all. Xiaomi is compromising on that too. We have all seen how last year xiaomi phones have sucked in calling cz of virtual proximity fiasco.

                            Anonymous, 18 Mar 2022this phone should have cost no more then 500 euro max.. loo... morewell in all fairness, the mi 12 and even 12x is better than the pixel 6 in almost every aspect (expect the main camera), they are also slicker lighter with minimal bezels, bringter screen, 120hz, superfast chrging, etc... However the mi 12 pro is another story, I don't think i tcan compete with other androis flagships

                                    this phone should have cost no more then 500 euro max.. look prices pixel 6 / pro.. xiaomi have gone greedy and pretend be apple now....

                                      What the hell? 8k video recording capabilities but without 4k60fps capabilities? Are you kidding me Xiaomi?

                                        To sum up. A phone that has difficulty making phone calls due to a faulty proximity sensor. Serious overheating issues due to insufficient cooling system for the chip it is using. A main camera that seriously oversaturates images but is justified because according to the review most people want instagramable photos. No telephoto and very average ultrawide that has been used since the mi10. USB C2.0. No ip rating. Between 800-850 euro depending on the country for just 128gb. Very average battery life. Half the review is basically rehashing Xiaomi’s marketing materials during their launch with every disadvantage been justified (e.g. small size justifies the poor battery life. Oversaturated unnatural photos is what consumers like. That is your subjective opinion. Present the facts and let consumers decide what they like). Is a score of 4.3 justified. And please don’t delete my comment again. Rather try to bias out of your reviews. Are we not entitled to our opinion?
