GG champ, 16 Aug 2023Thank you for the info. Idk if you're a fan of games m... moreI'm not a big mobile gamer but last month I have discover a game called Arena Breakout, it's made by the same company that owns PUBGm (Tencent). I loved it so much because it's realistic dark and griddy and most importantly not filled with those goofy skins, pets and rediculous cosmetic items that are plaguing the rest of mobile shooter games. I have been playing it every now and then and the phone has been handling it pretty well even tho it has more details and assets to render. I have the RAM extension option turned off and I have went through every settings this phone has to disable any annoying feature and xiaomi app that is just running in the background and wasting performance. The phone can run it with high settings but I choose the balanced option with high details to get some more smoothness. After playing for 40mins+ for example, the phone heats up to around 40°c - 41°c and during normal use (youtube watching, web surfing ect) it gets up to 36°c - 38°c but one thing to keep in mind though is that it's summer time currently and I live in hot climate, my room temperature is pretty high so I'm sure these numbers will slightly go down once the summer passes. It's runs a little bit hot but that has not been a downside for me. I have searched online if my temps are normal and they are definitely within the normal range. If we had the Helio G99 prosessor we would have definitely gotten a little boost in performance and battery life but xiaomi is getting to lazy out here.

GG champ, 14 Aug 2023Hello. Am considering buying this phone but before that i h... moreYes, it does have video stabilisation. However, you cannot turn it off... It just stays activated. I have found that to be a rediculous choice by xiaomi. Let the people have the option of switching it on or off... My dad's redmi note 9 pro used to have the option to toggle it off but when he updated to the latest MIUI version the option disappeared. The video stabilisation causes the video quality to be blurry and way less detailed plus the picture is more zoomed in for the video to be stabilized. Don't get me wrong though ! The video quality is still great plus it's better compared to the rest of the redmi note 12 lineup, but If you want a better video shooting experience download the "hedge cam 2"app from the Playstore. It's so much more customizable and the video capturing is just soooo much better than the default camera and you can stabilize the video later in post using google photos.
Here's a video sample of the default camera : https://youtu.be/RsLsykd0ztc

Anonymous, 10 Aug 2023I have a question. Are the speakers really weaker than othe... moreI don't know what other model you are comparing them to but they are pretty loud. However, the bottom speaker seems to handle most of the bass and a bit of mids whilst the upper speaker handles the treble some of the mid range too. I have found them to be not thaaaat bassy tbh but you can install the Equalizer app from the Playstore and EQ them up to your desire. I have tweeked the EQ and also boosted the bass on mine and they sound pretty nice.
The app is not heavy and you should disable the battery saver for it to not shutdown after a while so it can keep running in the background, it doesn't drain the battery at all.
As for the EQ settings that come installed on the phone by default, they freaking keep disabling them selves for some reason. Whenever I hop over from the settings to youtube everything sounds different on my earphones and I discovered that they don't work probably so the equalizer app is the way to go. Plus you can save multiple profiles on the app.

orkunco, 01 Aug 2023200€? you guys are so lucky. here in turkey it's 410 ... moreAnything over 300 dollars is too much for this phone... I bought mine for like 250 dollars. It's such a solid phone, the only down side it has is the old 12nm Helio G96 processor. If it had the 6nm Helio G99 processor with the same camera processing it has now or better it would literally be the perfect mid range phone. Such a shame xiaomi are starting to take their mid range lineup less seriously.

Anonymous, 04 May 2023Redmi note 10s has helio g95 with better game performance. ... moreNo much difference in real life and gaming. Codm at med graphics and high frame rate reaches 60 fps effortlessly with less battery consumption. Maybe because of that new GPU. But the device is not a bad one. I prefer this 12s 8 +256gb over the rest 12 series for their prices.

I have the phone and I have installed many tools from the app store to double check if what the reviewers on YouTube said is true or not. And yes, it does have adaptive refresh rate like the 11s. The refresh rate goes down from 90hz to 60hz only if you enter apps that doesn't support it or something i guess like youtube and some games.

For example, if I'm on the home screen and I'm not interacting with the screen the refresh rate stays 90hz whilst the competition turns it down to 60hz or less to save some battery life.
