Editorial report
Xiaomi 12X 8 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet
The Xiaomi 12X suits buyers after a compact, light phone with a screen that stands out among phones launched around the same time. At 176 g and 8.2 mm thick, it is lighter and thinner than most of its contemporaries. Its 6.28-inch AMOLED display has 419 ppi, among the highest pixel densities of its time, and reaches 1,100 nits peak brightness, higher than on most. The 120 Hz refresh rate is typical for its time rather than a standout advantage.
Performance and hardware are better than on most phones launched around the same time, and its AnTuTu result of 815,210 is also better than most. This version pairs 8 GB RAM with 128 GB storage. The Xiaomi 12X is also sold with 8 GB / 256 GB and 12 GB / 256 GB. The camera stands better than most: its rear main sensor, at 1/1.56 inches, is larger than most, although the f/1.9 aperture is worse than most. Video recording reaches 8K at 24 fps.
Connectivity is better than most, with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2. The 4,500 mAh battery capacity is typical for its time, while 67 W charging is among the fastest. The Xiaomi 12X earns a NeoScore of 6.8, making it a compelling fit for buyers who put a strong screen, compact size, and fast charging first.
