Xiaomi released Redmi Note 12 Pro and Redmi Note 12 Pro+ (including the derived Discovery Edition) at the end of October 2022, launching the MediaTek Dimensity 1080 mobile platform. In order to meet the needs of users who are more familiar with the Snapdragon brand, Xiaomi released the Redmi Note 12 Pro Express Edition with the Snapdragon 778G on December 27. The same starting price of 1,699 yuan, is it worth our expectations?
Redmi Note 12 Pro Express Edition continues the ID design of the family’s predecessors ([Big Eyes Cute] design language), with a trendy small vertical edge design and a lightweight body of 7.9mm and 181g.
This product is available in three fashionable colors: Time Blue, Shimmer Green, and Midnight Black. The biggest change is that the right side of the lens module on the back of the fuselage has a matte one-piece rubbing process. Whenever light passes through, different matte reflection effects blend here. The whole machine is not only vivid in color, but also full of texture when held in the hand.
Redmi Note 12 Pro Express Edition uses an OLED flexible straight screen with 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming, a maximum brightness of 900nits, and supports Dolby Vision and HDR10/10+ certification. The display quality is relatively outstanding among competing products in the same price range.
The biggest change of the Redmi Note 12 Pro Speedy Edition is that the processor is changed from Dimensity 1080 to Snapdragon 778G. The actual performance is slightly improved, and the matching memory and flash memory are still LPDDR4X and UFS2.2.
Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition also has a built-in 5000mAh battery, supports 67W fast charging, is equipped with dual speakers, X-axis linear motor, NFC, infrared remote control and other functional modules, and retains the 3.5mm headphone jack.
Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition’s rear main camera has been changed from the 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 to the Samsung HM2 with 100 million pixels, 1/1.52-inch outsole, and 2.1 micron integrated large pixels. It supports Xiaomi imaging brain, film camera and other functions.
Overall, Redmi Note 12 The Pro Speed Edition is the predecessor's core-replacement and main-camera replacement. The back cover is added with a matte one-body rubbing process, but the more recognizable Light Dream Galaxy color scheme is cancelled, and the starting price remains unchanged at 1,699 yuan. During the New Year Festival, the prices of the 8GB+128GB and 12GB+256GB versions are 1,799 yuan and 1,999 yuan respectively. At this time, its overall competitiveness is higher than that of the standard version of the Redmi Note 12 Pro.
