Intro

Finally, we get our hands on the flagship Xiaomi 12 Pro smartphone. Incorporating the best features packed into a handy smartphone, the Xiaomi 12 Pro will impress with it’s performance, speed and features.

As a camera centric 5G smartphone, a lot of focus is put into improving photo and video recording in dim lighting. A lot of factors will affect the image quality taken in dim lighting. That includes the sensor used and the software powering the camera application.

The 2 other sensors for wide angle and telephoto uses the Samsung s5kjn1 sensor.

To enhance the picture quality, Xiaomi has AI algorithms such as the Xiaomi ProFocus, which intelligently identifies and tracks objects, preventing blurring or out-of-focus shots of moving or veiled subjects. Also, Ultra Night Video uses Xiaomi’s proprietary algorithms to record video even under extreme low-light, meaning moody, atmospheric shots are clearer than ever.
