That performance is reflected in the benchmarks, which show that the 12 Pro is clearly on a par with its rivals – though as we’ve seen with other phones this year, on the CPU-focussed Geekbench 5 test it’s actually slipped behind last year’s Mi 11, while showing clear year-on-year improvement in the graphics-based GFXBench tests.
Performance is almost identical to the similar Oppo Find X5 Pro, and while the likes of the Realme GT 2 Pro and Exynos-powered Galaxy S22+ outpace the Xiaomi on graphical benchmarks, this is only because their chips are driving lower resolution displays.
Naturally, the 12 Pro also offers 5G connectivity, with dual-SIM support, and this is joined by Bluetooth 5.2, NFC, and Wi-Fi 6 or 6E – though Xiaomi warns that the exact Wi-Fi version varies by region.
