Flipp, 15 Mar 2022Ok! Thanks for this info. I was not aware of that problem. ... moreYeah. Like the mi11 pro too. So far this year's flagships haven't been that impressive relative to last year's ones

    Xiaomi and also Realme should focus where they have the best deals and the biggest amount of customers, in the 300-500EUR price mark.
    Maybe they will release some mid-range devices this year, that will be more appealing. But at this prices, the Xiaomi 12 line-up doesn't look appealing at all.

      I would really love to have 12 Pro but i don't trust their software anymore so it's a big no for me + it's 1000€, i can get iPhone 13 Pro for that price.

        To all those complaining about euro prices compared to USD : Euro prices are inclusive sales tax which is around 20% . in the us all prices are exclusive of sales tax

Bought my 11 Pro from tradingshenzhen so I hope they have a good warranty policy if needed. Have had almost all flagships from Xiaomi, 11 Pro is my favorite all things considered. I also get good battery life despite SD888. I had Mi 11 for a short period and that phone had terrible battery life.

              Is this review is on the global version or China version of 12 Pro?
              So surprised it come out right after the global announcement.

              There will be a minor changes in some chip components like network chip.

              Hope this is legit review on the true global set of 12 Pro.

                    That battery life is really dismal. I had to get rid of my mi 11 last year due to it running out of juice far too quickly, and this somehow manages to get worse numbers despite the much improved screen and refresh rate control. Also, no UI color picker from being based on Android 12? Another disappointing release from Xiaomi in 2021 it seems.

There are thousands of consumer complaints about this for the mi11 and 11 pro on review sites in China. It is a common problem and Xiaomi offer free replacements if it happens within the warranty period because they are well aware of this issue (normally they wouldn't do this and would repair only). Obviously it isn't going to happen every phone though. It seems to happen on both the 11 pro and 11 but is more common on the standard mi11.

                          IMO

                          Back panel looks like Mid range device.

                                photos are taken from a close distance from the subject and looks good but can't compare with other flagships, it's kind of doing some favor to xiaomi, and the battery life is very poor!!!

I am very active on a swedish android forum and no one has ever reported on motherboard problems with Mi 11. Hopefully not a common issue.

                                    Aierlan, 15 Mar 2022Probably is a better phone or at least as good but there is... moreThat's an issue due to stacked motherboard and overheated SoC, I think. Let's wait till summer to see if 12pros are as crappy as 11s, since 8g1 isn't a giant improvement. I remember that 11pro/ultra are safer than 11.
                                    I live in east Asia, too. I am disappointed with mi's products. Their peak(at least in the past three years) was mi10pro/ultra.

Was going to buy one myself in China but the Xiaomi store staff advised to go for a different model. Both of the store staff had the motherboard burn out on their Xiaomi 11 series phones. It's a well known problem in China and has been acknowledged by Xiaomi
