The Xiaomi 12 is the real top model of the family. The design exudes real premium quality. However, it not only impresses with its looks, but also with almost the same performance as the Pro model - with a significantly longer battery life. Those who can do without the slightly better camera performance of the Xiaomi 12 Pro will find the best price-performance ratio of the current Xiaomi generation here.
The Xiaomi 12X is the winner in the comparison of the two small 12 models. It does not feel like an economy model, is fast and has a great display. The slightly faster speed of the Xiaomi 12 plays a minor role in everyday use. The longer battery life of the 12X is more noticeable, and both take good photos...
I do not want to and cannot give a clear recommendation for one of the three devices. All three are of high quality, work quickly and have many arguments in their respective price ranges. Whether the price difference between the 12 Pro and 12X is justified, which is currently around 330 euros, is something everyone must decide for themselves...
