I've had my 12 Pro for a couple of weeks now. Overall I'm very happy - it's a very good phone, just a few minor niggles that stop me giving it 5 stars. The phone is very easy to use - calls, internet, apps all work well. Data, apps and quite a few settings transferred extremely easily from my previous (different brand) phone. No compatibility issues. Minor learning curve from my previous phone - different screen transitions, slightly different swipe settings, all very easy to get my head around. Positives: Good size screen, phone works well, good sound quality, camera is good. Price is competitive IMHO. Wireless charging has worked well...view more

The Xiaomi 12 Pro delivers brilliant performance in the areas it matters most, including the camera, the processor, the screen, and the battery.

Middling battery life, No IP rating, Expensive in the UK, Unattractive MIUI software skin, If you need long battery life, you’re not a fan of MIUI software, or you’re cheesed off by the UK price differential.

The Xiaomi 12 Pro holds its own up against other flagship smartphones. You'll be impressed by the big screen and its performance which is both fast and reliable. The 120W charging is another standout feature but admittedly its battery life could go a lot further.

Powerful hardware, Stunning WQHD+ 6.73-inch display, 120W HyperCharge

Below-average battery life, Camera has its limits, No IP rating for water or dust resistance

The Xiaomi 12 Pro is one of the most balanced phones around, and the fact that it costs just shy of $1,000 means it undercuts the best from Apple, Oppo, and Samsung. It misses out on a good camera zoom, but that's the only real drawback to an otherwise great package - one that combines a refined...

Refined, sleek, fingerprint-resistant finish, Incredibly fast wired charging, Brilliant screen quality

Limited optical zoom, No official IP rating, MIUI 13 is improved but still feels bloated

It doesn’t really stand out from similarly priced phones anywhere else, but it matches them for screen quality and power, while falling slightly short on optical zoom and water resistance.

Incredibly fast charging, One of the best screens, Very powerful

Weak optical zoom, No IP rating, Average battery life

The Xiaomi 12 Pro has an awful lot going for it, with a sleek design, fast charging, and decent camera – but bad battery and so-so software hold it back from true greatness.

No formal IP rating, Battery life is middle of the road, Telephoto camera is only capable of 2x optical zoom, Ultrawide camera lacks autofocus

Super-fast charging w/ charger in the box!, Excellent design, Good image quality, Bright, vivid, and smooth display, Good audio and haptic experience

Might overheat in certain situations, Some camera inconsistencies, MIUI still has some bugs, Battery life could be better

As already the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, the upper-class smartphone from the Chinese manufacturer also uses the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1, UFS 3.1 storage, and an LTPO AMOLED panel. In addition, the Xiaomi smartphone offers fast 120-Watt charging. At about 800 Euros (~$803), is this a rounded package?
