A lot of various mobile phones have been released in the past two years, but due to the continuous failure of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 series processors, my main mobile phone is usually dual-wielding Apple and Huawei two years ago. Huawei Mate40 Pro has been used till now.
After Huawei was restricted, Xiaomi began to impact the high-end. Although the Xiaomi 11 Ultra launched in 2021 is very amazing, it has been held back by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor. Incidents of motherboard burning and WIFI burning occurred frequently. , after Qualcomm re-cooperated with TSMC to launch the Snapdragon 8+ processor, Xiaomi 12S was the first to be equipped with this processor. Ultra was officially released, and it also had in-depth cooperation with Leica. Once the phone was launched, it immediately aroused rave reviews. After all, Huawei Mate40 Pro has been used for two years, and I also wanted to switch to a phone from another brand, so I bought one as soon as possible. After using the Xiaomi Mi 12S Ultra for a period of time, compared with the Huawei Mate40 Pro, I have a lot to say and feel unhappy about.
1. Appearance and workmanship: The texture is good
Huawei Mate40 Pro adopts a pill-hole design in the upper left corner. The front screen has a large curvature and the green edge is obvious. The back uses a star ring design, which is very recognizable. The whole machine The texture is outstanding.
Xiaomi 12S Ultra adopts a center-drilled design. The screen curvature is not large. The circular camera module on the back is very exaggerated. The 23K gold-plated ring surrounds the entire camera module, giving people a very noble feeling. The back shell is made of Made of plain leather, the texture is also very good, very un-Xiaomi.
Both phones are very high-quality, very recognizable, and have a high-end feel in your hands, especially the Xiaomi 12S Ultra. When you turn the phone sideways, you can see the shadow of the Leica camera .
2. Screen: Xiaomi 12S Ultra beats
Huawei Mate40 The Pro has a strong visual impact. Although the curvature is large, it does a good job of preventing accidental touches. The screen size is 6.67 inches, the resolution is 2772*1344, and the "Zhou Dongyu arrangement" is used. The touch sampling rate is 240Hz and supports 90Hz. With a high refresh rate and a peak brightness of 800nit, the display is the biggest flaw of this phone. Sometimes, there will be a color cast.
Xiaomi 12S Ultra is equipped with an E5 material screen supplied by Samsung , with a size of 6.73 inches and a resolution of 3200*1440. It supports second-generation LTPO 120Hz refresh, Dolby Vision and HDR10+, and the peak brightness reaches 1500nit. The display effect is very delicate.
Just looking at the parameters, we can actually see that the screen of Huawei Mate40 Pro lags behind Xiaomi 12S Ultra. In terms of actual experience, the gap is even more obvious. Whether it is refresh rate, display effect, peak brightness, or resolution, Xiaomi 12S Ultra is a complete winner.
3. Performance: Xiaomi 12S Ultra has obvious advantages
Huawei Mate40 Pro is equipped with the self-developed Kirin 9000 processor, which is currently Huawei’s best processor. Although it has been released for two years, the performance is still sufficient for daily use. It is very smooth to use, and there is no big problem when playing games such as Honor of Kings and Peace Elite. The heat and power consumption are also well controlled.
The processor of Xiaomi 12S Ultra is Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+, which is also equipped with LPDDR5 and UFS3.1. Both performance and reading and writing speed are very good. The Snapdragon 8+ processor has changed from the previous Snapdragon 888 and The Snapdragon 8Gen1 processor has the disadvantages of high power consumption and serious heat generation, Xiaomi 12S Ultra is also equipped with the self-developed Leaf Vein cold pump cooling system. Even if you play for a long time, the phone will only be warm. Genshin Impact can stabilize at 59.7 frames for half an hour. The performance is amazing, and there are rarely fluctuations in the frame rate of and . situation arises.
The performance of Huawei Mate40 Pro and Xiaomi 12S Ultra is both good. Whether it is Kirin 9000 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ processor, it is a very good processor and can handle daily use without any problems. However, in terms of overall performance, Kirin 9000 still has a slight disadvantage compared to Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+.
4. Image: Xiaomi 12S Ultra is even better
Huawei Mate40 Although the Pro was released two years ago, as Huawei's flagship model, its imaging capabilities are still very powerful. It is equipped with a 50-megapixel super-sensing lens, which can combine four-in-one pixels and full-pixel The eight-core focus and RYYB color filter array are combined into one. When the light is sufficient during the day, the resulting photos are eye-catching and the picture is relatively clear. At night, the highlight suppression is done well, but the light is not good. In this case, you can also take good photos by increasing the brightness. In addition, Huawei Mate40 Pro also has a 20-megapixel movie lens and a 12-megapixel periscope telephoto lens , and is equipped with an laser sensor .
Xiaomi 12S Ultra’s photography is quite stunning. It has a one-inch Sony IMX989 sensor, which is unique in the field of smartphones and can even rival cameras. In addition, Xiaomi Mi 12S Ultra also has in-depth cooperation with Leica, and has built-in Leica Vivid and Leica Classic camera modes, as well as 4 built-in Leica filters.
In terms of actual experience, Xiaomi Mi 12S Ultra’s photography can be regarded as the benchmark in the industry in terms of shutter response speed, focus speed and film quality. When there is sufficient light during the day, Xiaomi Mi 12S will naturally not be a problem. Ultra, on a more challenging night, thanks to the 1-inch outsole sensor, it does an excellent job in both photosensitivity suppression and detail preservation. It can also take good photos in poor light conditions. And the brightness increase is not fake. It is worth mentioning that Xiaomi 12S Ultra also supports 4K 60-frame Dolby Vision video shooting, and the anti-shake is also excellent, which is the only Android phone that supports it.
Huawei Mate40 Pro and Xiaomi 12S Ultra are both imaging flagships. Their imaging performance can be described as excellent, especially Xiaomi 12S Ultra. Its progress is surprising. Currently, there is no other mobile phone in terms of imaging. It can compete with it. Even though the imaging capabilities of Huawei Mate40 Pro are excellent enough, it is still slightly inferior to Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
5. System: Huawei Mate40 Pro is slightly better
Huawei Mate40 Pro is equipped with the self-developed Hongmeng OS2.0 operating system. This operating system focuses on multi-device collaboration. However, in addition to better collaboration with its own products, the current version is not very perceptive to users who do not use Huawei Family Bucket. The more obvious perception is the smoothness of the system. In long-term comparison, the smoothness is even as good as Apple's iOS system. The small card function is very convenient to use, but it has a common problem with the Android system, too many advertisements.
Xiaomi 12S Ultra is equipped with the MIUI13 operating system. Although there are occasional small bugs, it is much better than MIUI12. The fluency and stability are good. Many practical small functions are also more convenient to use. It is in line with the ecology of its own products. The linkage between them is also good, and the advertising aspect is much less than before.
MIUI13 is a relatively good Android system, but in terms of fluency and stability, Hongmeng OS2.0 is better.
6. Brand influence: Xiaomi still has a long road to high-end.
Due to the different starting positioning of the two brands, their influence in the eyes of consumers is different. , in the eyes of most people, Huawei symbolizes high-end and high quality, while Xiaomi is only low-end and cost-effective. For example, if you also spend 6,000 yuan to buy a mobile phone and choose Huawei, many people will think it is worth it, but it is Xiaomi's turn. , there will be many people who will say who spends so much money to buy Xiaomi. This is reality. In the past two years, Xiaomi has begun to focus on high-end products, and has successively launched a number of excellent mobile phone products, such as Xiaomi 12S Ultra and Xiaomi MIX Fold2. At this stage, Xiaomi 12S Ultra may be the most worthy Android flagship phone to choose, but there is only one mobile phone Excellent, but still unable to support Xiaomi's brand influence, and the road to high-end is still long.
7. Summary
In the comparison of the above six aspects, Xiaomi 12S Ultra has obvious advantages in screen, performance, imaging, etc. Huawei Mate40 Pro is better in terms of system and brand influence. In fact, the two mobile phones All are very good, but currently, Huawei Mate40 Pro equipped with Kirin 9000 processor is relatively expensive, and the user experience is no better than Xiaomi 12S. Ultra is good, so I recommend everyone to choose Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
