- TEAM SGG PATREON / somegadgetguy Xiaomi 12T first impressions. Xiaomi is REALLY good at making phones around this price. Refreshing the 12, and focusing on power efficiency, we arrive at a VERY nice daily driver option. It feels premium, and it performs well. It's far from the only phone in this tier though, and the competition in "THE MIDDLE" is getting tougher and tougher.

![Xiaomi 12T Pro TOP 5 Features: Is it the BEST Value Flagship of 2022? [Review]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/WYSgGJwpw3c/mqdefault.jpg)
So happy U get to play with a Xiaomi. I'm still loving my 10T Pro [as mobile number two]
Always love hearing your thoughts on these new devices! Awesome work.
Yep
Your channel is nice as well
i always find answers to my questions in your videos ❤️🙏
Hey my Friend. I agree with you on your point. When you make the frame curved, it makes the bezels look thicker and less immersive.
3:55 Sleak and fast is when certain controls are at your reach and not burried under settings menu, like fast silence, DND, rich volume menu, app info and etc...
I’ve been confused for a while on how bands and service is for phones such as these. Do i have to get the global rom version? I’m in the US for reference. I usually look at these phones on giztop. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks for the video :)
This does everything well right down to the speakers. They even throw in an IR blaster so you can change TV channels at the bar.
whats wrong with the speaker ?
Lmao, you can change the sport channel before something interesting happens 😂
Nice review... but does they work on US carriers with out hiccups(T-MOBILE) .. 5G coverage?
Would you suggest this as a powerful gaming option since it comes with the Mediatek D8100-Ultra?
The choice of the Mediatek processor upgrades the performance of this smartphone to a considerable extent.
Finally, a 12T review, ah yes!
Whilst others opted for the Pro model, I'd love to see how 12T (base version) stacks up against its bigger sibling.
Thanks JuanBagnell for this review.
Man I love your reviews. I cannot say that enough.
More people should be talking about Xiaomi 12T smartphones. The mediatek D8100 ultra and 108MP camera cannot be missed by people.
Ok, glad to see you and I are on the same page when it comes to Ultra labeling. I really like the 8100 series. I kind of wish they included the 200MP but they needed a cheaper variant. Also, I would' love for the phone to remember your recording resolution when switching cameras.
RIGHT! The 8100 is a GREAT chip, but I can't tell what makes this "upper midranger" chip an ULTRA LOL.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I guess it's all in a name 😂😂.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I believed a slightly tweaked SoC 🤷😁
@@SomeGadgetGuy how much faster or better is the chip in the pro? If you had them side by side would there be much of a difference?
@@SomeGadgetGuy can you tell me why this phone doesn't allow all customers to use 90fps or 120fps in the games? Some of them can, and some can not. Same for other apps, not just for games. Maybe you know to give us the answer m beacuse I'm thinking to buy this phone
I bought this phone this week upgrading from the 11 lite 5gNE, and im very happy with my purchase, very capable phone, i really like the photo processing and the performance.
The 11 Lite was super cute, but the 12T is a champ. Congrats on the new phone 👍
Is the camera not worse?
same, coming from 11 lite 5g ne, is it really a big upgrade in gaming and camera? or just wait for 13T
Great review as always, just bought this phone.
One "correction" maybe: At 4:30 - you just click dont agree and youre done. From the part of the video where youve shown the stats I could see the ROM name (slqeuxm), and apparently its the EEA one intended for the European market. That means, among other things, that it fully complies with the rather strict GDPR policy of the EU. Out of all the localized versions you need to worry the least about privacy with this one. Click "dont agree" wherever you encounter such a screen and thats it.
But we'll be able to use the app after hitting "dont agree" right?
@@andrenikolai1061 Yeah of course.
One of the best thing about this smartphone besides the incredible camera setup is the customized Dimensity 8100-Ultra processor.
i hope Asus sends you the Zenfone 9 to review, really love to hear from you..been eyeing for that compact phone.😁
I really like the 108MP triple-camera setup and it is quite interesting with the integration of the Mediatek processor.
Man that edge to edge screen. Just wow.
So between this, the note 12 pro plus and the poco f5, what are your thoughts on the winner? Also, any insight into signal strength with this device, when compared to others? Thanks!
3:40 i think those heavy customisation forced Android to introduce some of that fun in to their vanilla system.
To me it was funny that many reviwers complained about customized Android system, like vanilla Android is faster... To me it was like comparing race cars on barebones just to make them faster, and and everyday car that is built for comfort and pleasent drive.
Does your Xiam 12 S ultra work in the U.S?
How dou you swith The up thin from slidin left to right to sliding up to down
Man i just sold with this 12t rather then pro cant wait to get in my hand
I have mine,so I can say for general target in the market 12t is a good catch
11T pro or 12T? Looking for a phone that is reliable with the least amount of bugs. Thx
I wish you could test a phone like the Mi Note 10 Pro
a bit older: yes
Larger 108 MP sensor: yes
Output: 27 MP images with loads of detail
Do you have 12t pro? I really wanted to find anyone to compare how big is the difference between 12t and 12t pro...
Hey Juan, did you try your video rendering and audio mixing test on this phone?
I did. The numbers are good. In line with the Poco.
Definitely eyeing the vanilla 12T because of that Dimensity SoC. The 12T Pro doesn't win me because of Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. That has a complete wide/ultrawide/telephoto camera setup and USB-C 3.1 with video output and Ready For support.
But 12T pro has flat screen, and that alone makes it a good alternative to 30ultra
Hi Juan I like your channel. Do you think I should get a S22 plus or a Pixel 6 Pro. I am a tech blogging teenager but I don't use social media. I appreciate features like Dex but I don't have them on my current phone. (A71 5G) Thanks
If you want those kinds of work features, the real fight might be Samsung vs Moto. The Pixel will have the better cameras, but won't have the productivity or compute features.
@@SomeGadgetGuy what Moto would you recommend. I know Moto does not have the best software support...
Against the S22+, the Edge+ is silly good. Fast charging, better desktop mode, stylus support, and you can find the 512GB version for less than the S22 128GB.
The software support is a factor, and you won't get as many OS updates, but you will get MUCH more timely feature updates. Most of the phone is updated directly through Google Play instead of waiting for bloated OTAs every other month.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Ohh good I will check into that thanks
It looks like it's not on tmobile
I like Xiaomi. I like MIUI as well. But as soon as there is a stable custom ROM I'd root the 12T. Been a Xiaomi advocate for over 7 years. I think they make great devices. But there are annoying quirks that I can't live with anymore.
12t will never get any custom roms since its mediatek
Can u explain the quirks that irk? I'm looking to get one for the camera alone
Same
My k30prozoom is a blast to use
Too bad it won't get miui14
Will hv to use AOSP later
Custom ROM? Go for Snapdragon's.
Mediatek in 12T, Go to pro one for snapdragon.
Does the audio support LDAC
Saw the 12T at the shop the other day and now I'm stuck between the 12T and the Oppo Reno8. While the 12T does seem to offer more performance etc, I've never really seen anyone use a Xiaomi phone. Do I go with the Oppo that I know or try a different brand and not knowing anything of that brand.
maybe for the import tax or any other factor, xiaomi 12T (256gb) only cost 430 usd in my country (malaysia)
The finger print sensor is in the best place l. On the side power button...
This or the poco f4 ?? The prices is close at the moment here in Germany
Do you think 12t is the best choice for a middle range phone in terms of camera and battery? Or there is a better one in the market right now? Thank you.
Want to know the same haha
12 T is a Flagship not a mid range phone 😊
I feel like I've been waiting for 5 years or so to jump on Xiaomi, POCO X4 might be my next, but I'm waiting to see what the Note 12 series will be
So, what did you decide?
I am thinking between x4 GT and 12T but the price difference is around 100 dollar more for 12T so I'm thinking is it worth the 100 dollar extra given the screen and camera the 12T cost 499 for 256 gb storage here and x4 Gt 400
I'm thinking the same thing, am pondering which to choose between X4 GT and 12t. So in the end which phone you chose, may I know your opinion?
@@ungtan3752 I think it's better to get Redmi k50 ultra u get the same camera and awesome display and with 8+ gen 1 chipset which will perform very good in gaming and it's very stable at price 499 same as 12T u can purchase it through gizstop or Lazada
@@coolguy0331 thx for the enlightenment 😁
Does this supports LDAC codec?
Reviewer/Commentator 😁
12t or 12 lite?
How could you take those photos with saturation results? Please tell me your tricks.
LOL, nothing fancy there. I'm just looking for good light.
Nice
I wonder how it compare to Xiaomi 12x, they cost the same in my country
I can't get the remote to work with my TV sadly, but at least Google TV is limited backup.
I have phone with finger print scanner in power button and this is not a good solution. You will touch this button just by taking it out of your pocket and lock it so you need to use pin number. On screen is better if you use it as navigation in your car or to unlock it without picking it up.
No that's what I want. I want the phone ready and unlocked BEFORE it's up to my face. A tactile landmark is the best solution for that active use.
Another phone to watch out.
Is this more practical than a dedicated phone or just get the gaming phone.
Just wanna play punishing gray raven again
It's a tough call. If you think you're really going to game that hard, then the only way to go is gaming phone. This should be good at gaming for the hardware on tap though.
@@SomeGadgetGuy so I got the phone for 2 months now.
It's pretty solid for the price
is it good upgrade from 11T?
Eh? It's got some fun little improvements like the charging speed, and the 8100 is more powerful, but I think a LOT of the experience would feel the same?
Would be sidegrade
Wonderful review,
But my major concern is that, why is Xiaomi sticking with these Mediatek chipsets these days. Why can't they just opt for equal Snapdragon chipsets.. Because that was the case just a few years before.. and they had built their reputation with that, a good package with an affordable price range..
But, now, they're just only Mediatek and just one Super flagship High end Snapdragon model!
Because Dimensity 8100 is a lot more powerful than SD870 and more consistent than SD888. Qualcomm screwed up with 888 and 8 Gen 1 with their throttling and overheating issues because they let Samsung manufacture them instead of TSMC. 8 plus Gen 1 (and later Gen 2) is back with TSMC, but those are for Pro and flagship phones. Despite this, Xiaomi (with Poco) does offer phones of all of the other SoC's mentioned, just look them up. It's actually great that we got a Dimensity 8100 option that isn't stuck on an LCD phone like Poco X4 GT
I'm stuck between buying the 12t or the 11t pro
11t pro
@@shahzackerman2326 no, it overheats, main camera has no ois, n battery for me has been a letdown, made me switch back to Poco F2 pro
12t
What's the game at 656..cant find it in store
Brightridge 👍
colour science is still not upto the other brands. Pixels truetone is a game changer for me.
The hardware is very good. The processing...
Wow 599 not bad
Now that Poco F5 is out, is 12T still worth it in 2023?
Definitely
when you unbox and review pixel 7 pro
we're waiting bro
Stucked between 12t, 12 lite and X4 GT
12x?
We want to try the device in the water
Honestly, the OnePlus 5T has the best fingerprint sensor
Don't have any permissions on my calculator I don't use the stock file manager I use simple file manager as well simple gallery pro on my redmi note 10 Pro global version plus every phone review I see it's always sunny its October 2022 and it is not sunny here totally jealous
is this verizon compatible? at this point I feel like verizon is super limited with the devices you can use
Many people didn't realise how smooth is miui
Smooth my ass.Its buggy asf.
Xiaomi 12t vs realme gt neo 3. Which is better???
Better screen on 12t and better charging speed with a smaller battery on gt neon3 (the 150w one). However, 5000 mah and 120w is better than 4500mah and 150w or 5000 mah and 80w. The big difference is at the android ekin. Miui vs realme ui.
@@marius0448 thanks.
@@ionutz289 cu placere :)
I'm watching this on the Xiaomi 12T all I will say is this phone is amazing
I'm thinking about getting a 12T. It sounds like it's a really good phone looking at what you get for what you pay.
I did read about proximity sensor issues on the older T models. Have you experienced any sensor issues on your 12T?
@@colinwright1637 I haven't had any issues with the phone and it's going well currently and I'm waiting for miui 14 to come out so yeah excellent phone for the price
$429 in my country for this 8100 and 8/256gb
That's a MUCH better price for this phone.
4:10 I used Blokada on my Xiaomi device to block ads and pinging back home. Then I used debloat software for Xiaomi phones and cleaned it little bit more.
Issue is, wr are already tracked by Google, now other manufacturers try to do the same, especially Xiaomi and as of recent Huawei.
Your comments on the camera are like fake news from CNN or MSN.
I still find them more balanced than any biased
"pro photographer" would notice.
I have been using this phone for a month. The display is pretty good. The battery life is pretty bad, it can"t last a full day. The main camera is a disaster, the images are blurry it looks like there is no focus in the system. Colors are oversaturated and unnetural. The mediatek processor performance is good no lagg at all. I regretted buying it.
Оноскеть!
b-b-b-but I need the mega pickle number to be higher! it needs to be higher than the last time or otherwise it's not as gooderer!?
White review ivprefer this to Samsung rap and white iPhone
I'm just looking for a phone with legit useful cameras
Actually in narrow flat phones market.
sry but as someone who loves their ultrawide pics a 8MP cam on a 600 euro phone is an insolence.
Mi12 Pro vs 12TPro
Good utter, good accent!
Your fingers are pretty small
I prefer to buy Xiaomi 11t pro insted of 12t. Have same camera, but better or maybe way better macro camera. Only one less year software update and a bit power hungry chip and that's it. Rest of the features in 11t pro is better than or same as 12t. And you can get it for 30k INR in India, which is $400-450 if converted to USD.
You say the chipset in the 11T Pro is power hungry. Are you having issues getting through a full day of use on a single charge?
Lol that charge speed is overkill.. but it's the perfect shit shower shave and get dressed phone.
It's one of those features that's "overkill" until you use it, and then don't ever want to give it up LOL. It's totally changed my idea of charging for how little you have to plan ahead.
You can still charge it a lower wattage, just use a lower watt charger, they just provide the option of higher wattage charging, if some people are worried about battery degradation just charge it with a lower wattage charger.
@@SomeGadgetGuy most def, my next phone coming with a 67w charger. I wish manufacturers would add bigger batteries too lol, I want it all. Let's go 6000mah on most phones. 👏
@@getfitwithmike9462are you suggesting that a lower wattage charger won't degrade the battery as much as a higher wattage one?
Mediatek 8100 better than Snapdragon 888 overall
It's pretty close. There are test that demonstrate advantages for the 888, but the 8100 is VERY similar to an 865 with a die shrink. Simply an outstanding design.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I like 8100 power efficiency better than 888, Snapdragon 888 by Samsung too much overheat issues. Good Job Qualcomm return TSMC is a great decision.
@@SomeGadgetGuy Dimensity 8100 is much better than Snapdragon 865. It's not even close in test performances. The closest Snapdragon rival is the 888 version in which the 888 version is only slightly better overall. Although I like to add that Dimensity 8100 beats Snapdragon 888 in multi-core tests.
on a shallow note: wow, this phone is boring looking
But then again, all current smartphones look pretty much the same. Only Sony looks individually different than the rest.
@@FAT8893 sony, vivo phones (especially X80), google pixel ... etc not all phone looks the same ...
Great Phone? 🤣🤣🤣
I refuse to give more money to the Chinese sometimes I give some without wanting...
Hello
Since you have experience with Samsung Dex and touchscreens combo I wanted to ask for advices. I also appreciate answers from any viewer, in case the creator of this channel can't respond to my message.
I'm interested in using Samsung Dex with a touchscreen monitor myself. Since I spend time in my home mostly and don't really need an additional battery. To not mske things longer, I have my eyes on two devices.
1. Magedok OLED full HD 13,3. Has touchscreen and no battery. Very similar to Asus Zenscreen OLED 13,3 (you can find more reviews for the later here on TH-cam).
2. Magedok IPS full HD 14'. Similar to above, just a little bigger and IPS instead of OLED technology. Had no battery as well.
My phone is Samsung S20 FE. I tested Samsung Dex using another monitor (no touchscreen) and it works, but drains my battery very fast. So asking about BOTH monitors my questions are as follows:
1. Does plugging the power source (to the monitor) stop phone battery drainage? Does it even slow it? I watched reviews, but all they say is that plugging the monitor I can just boost the brightness. So I'm worried it would still consume my phone's battery even when I plug monitor to separate energy source (even if it doesn't need it).
2. If you aren't sure about the above. What would you recommend me to get additionally? Would buying an USB adapter solve it? I have hope that maybe an active (and not passive) adapter could help, being able to PD power deliver devices using it. Any experience with using it?
3. Most importantly. Can an use touch screen from the MONITOR when connecting monitor to my phone? Does it transfer both signal (image) AND touch or just the image? I want to control my phone through the monitor (its touchscreen), so both signal and touch transfers are needed.
4. If the above is true, how much control it gives. Can I use the monitor just like I used my phone? Meaning, could I play 3D android games and use controls just like on my phone? I play one game especially (Sky Children of the Light), it has two on screen 'sticks' (for moving the character and camera, with two thumbs). So I was wondering if using Samsung Dex I can play it normally just like with my phone - Or if it supports only clicking one area at the time (so I couldn't play normally with both thumbs and move the character/camera at the same time). You can even test the game itself if you got some time as it's free and without adds. I'm worried that it works just like a mouse even with touchscreen and offers zero support for multiple touch points pressed at the same time.
For now this is all. Thank you.
Best wishes, Jon
