Unboxing and Design

The first thing we see with this box is that big 67W charger. Yes, Xiaomi includes it in the package, which these days with flagships seems to be such a big thing. Once you open up the box, you will be greeted by a little insert with a SIM Ejector pin, regular literature, and a soft case. This is very much appreciated given that the back here is Glass. And depending on the color you go for it will be a Black, Green, Blue, or Pink smartphone in the box. The Green version, by the way, is not glass but vegan leather. Anyway, this phone has got a USB type C cable with an orange accent.

A quick tour around the Xiaomi 12X device will show the power and volume keys and the SIM tray. There’s no IP certification here and there is also no support for micro SD. The USB port you see over here is just USB Type-C 2.0 so transfer speeds are gonna be relatively low. And there is no headphone jack. On the flip side, there are stereo speakers. These are tuned by Harmon Kardon. There’s also support for Dolby Atmos from a software perspective. They’ve even retained the IR blaster. One of the last brands to do so.

Display

The Xiaomi 12X is easy to use single-handed thanks to its large edge-to-edge curved screen. Underneath its display is an optical fingerprint scanner. It’s pretty fast, pretty responsive. Nothing really to complain about it save for its placement? It is a bit lower than usual. Even lower than how it has been placed on the Pro version. On top of the display is a hole punch. This houses its 30MP selfie camera. The display features here are as follows:

• OLED, 1B colors, 120Hz, Dolby Vision, HDR10+, 1100 nits (peak)
• 6.28 inches, 95.2 cm² (~89.2% screen-to-body ratio)
• 1080 x 2400 pixels, 20:9 ratio (~419 PPI density)
• Corning Gorilla Glass Victus

Cameras

First off, let us start by saying we absolutely adore the camera on the Xiaomi 12X. Its great design choice makes it look really pleasant. Now the three sensors you see here are exactly the same as the ones on Xiaomi 12. The primary shooter is the same 50 MP, f/1.9, 26mm (wide), 1/1.56″, 1.0µm, PDAF, OIS lens. Its images are decent the results of which are comparable to Samsung Galaxy S21 FE 5G’s. The secondary shooter is a 13 MP, f/2.4, 12mm, 123˚ (ultrawide), 1/3.06″, 1.12µm lens and the third a 5 MP, 50mm (telephoto macro), AF lens.

There is up to 8K@24fps, 4K@30/60fps video recording with the main camera. Other qualities include 1080p@30/120/240/960fps, gyro-EIS. So actually how are the selfies of this Xiaomi 12x? They are crisp, sharp, and well-detailed. We think Xiaomi has done a good job with edge detection on the portraits. These are made possible by Xiaomi 12X’s 32 MP, 26mm (wide), 0.7µm front-facing lens.
