1
00:00:00,060 --> 00:00:06,899
show me the money xiaomi 12 Monies

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:09,300
xiaomi is here with the xiaomi 12 Pro

3
00:00:06,899 --> 00:00:12,660
their 12th Pro phone I don't think that's right but we're gonna go with it

4
00:00:10,620 --> 00:00:16,740
I'd love to take a look at this phone except that it's in a locked box with a

5
00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:20,460
combination on it what's your freaking problem jono what are you doing this to

6
00:00:18,660 --> 00:00:28,260
me everything what is this what am I supposed to do answer answer my riddle

7
00:00:24,119 --> 00:00:30,380
I did not sign up for this a few moments

8
00:00:28,260 --> 00:00:38,520
later hey wow that was almost too easy the

9
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:41,579
xiaomi 12 PRO Sound by Harmon and carton

10
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,800
they got both of them this time and 5G

11
00:00:41,579 --> 00:00:48,960
connectivity because it's got the Snapdragon 8 gen 1 which I think comes

12
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:52,980
comes with 5G by default most of the time unless they disable it this is the

13
00:00:50,879 --> 00:00:59,160
pro I think I was expecting it to be more of like a budget Flagship option

14
00:00:55,559 --> 00:01:01,980
this phone is aiming squarely at the s22

15
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:06,180
ultra and the pixel 6 Pro I'll take the thing off first oh you know what this

16
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,140
happens to me every time on ShortCircuit I don't care about the actual

17
00:01:08,340 --> 00:01:13,080
finish on a phone but then I take off the wrapping paper and I look at the

18
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:17,460
back and I'm like that looks pretty nice sometimes I can understand why people

19
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:22,200
would want to not put a case on their phone even though not putting a case on

20
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:25,860
your phone is objectively stupid they did the science the science is in I'm

21
00:01:23,820 --> 00:01:30,960
sorry the xiaomi logo like leaves a little Shadow you can see it now you

22
00:01:29,220 --> 00:01:35,520
can't see it you're lying the point is that's kind of cool

23
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:39,680
what else comes in the Box they give you a case with it is that normal or is that

24
00:01:37,380 --> 00:01:39,680
for us

25
00:01:41,460 --> 00:01:47,520
that's rude very few people got some papers that

26
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:52,799
probably say careful don't take a bath with it ip68 water resistance so that

27
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:59,340
means you can take it for a bath but none of these companies are going to tell you to take it for a bath but I am

28
00:01:56,100 --> 00:02:03,180
just kidding don't do it should I put

29
00:01:59,340 --> 00:02:04,860
the case on no gross looks cheap you

30
00:02:03,180 --> 00:02:10,860
want you want other people to know that you have an expensive phone

31
00:02:07,259 --> 00:02:12,739
wow I'm also angry about this this is

32
00:02:10,860 --> 00:02:23,160
the 120 Watt uh charging brick this thing's huge and

33
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:24,599
also in the box we have a USB a to c so

34
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,379
on the back we already had like a little bit of a look at it the cool like design

35
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:31,520
on the on the camera module you ever seen lines like that Brandon

36
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:40,379
so on this side we got the power button and the volume rocker on the top we got

37
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:44,519
Mike some holes the speaker things this thing apparently has a quad speaker

38
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:47,660
setup we'll test that out I mean like there's definitely one on either side

39
00:02:46,140 --> 00:02:53,700
over here absolutely nothing on the bottom a dual

40
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:59,340
SIM card tray as far as I'm aware but no micro SD card USB type c for charging

41
00:02:56,459 --> 00:03:03,360
and the other speaker Grille let's turn this sucker on after this visit from our

keep your feet dry and save 25 bucks with offer code ShortCircuit at

50
00:03:33,540 --> 00:03:40,019
vesi.com ShortCircuit the display we're

51
00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:41,760
looking at six point

52
00:03:40,019 --> 00:03:48,780
seven three inches 20 by nine aspect ratio and it's

53
00:03:45,299 --> 00:03:50,280
120 hertz refresh rate like most of the

54
00:03:48,780 --> 00:03:55,080
big old flagships we're dealing with nowadays in terms of iPhones and

55
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:57,900
Androids and like those other ones it has it's supposed to have like an

56
00:03:56,220 --> 00:04:02,819
Adaptive sync thing where it like will adjust the refresh rate depending on

57
00:03:59,340 --> 00:04:05,640
what you're doing lpto AMOLED 3200 by

58
00:04:02,819 --> 00:04:10,260
1400 pixels now you have all the information we gotta hunt a thousand

59
00:04:07,620 --> 00:04:16,859
nits sustained I believe and 1500 Peak brightness which is actually the same as

60
00:04:12,420 --> 00:04:18,060
the fancy old mini LED iPad Pro that

61
00:04:16,859 --> 00:04:22,380
came out last year that everyone was making such a big deal about about the brightness and the contrast and the

62
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:28,979
dynamic range and whatnot but that's pretty impressive to see like basically the same capability in a handheld

63
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:30,180
smartphone 480 Hertz touch sampling I

64
00:04:28,979 --> 00:04:35,100
don't know what the touch sampling is for the main phones because I haven't paid attention

65
00:04:32,460 --> 00:04:39,300
but that's more than 120 hertz I think wait what battery are we at 38 I want to

66
00:04:37,620 --> 00:04:43,560
plug it in while I keep talking and then we can like time it now look at this 38

67
00:04:41,759 --> 00:04:47,759
point that you can see the percentage going up that's pretty cool I feel like

68
00:04:46,139 --> 00:04:53,160
all the way smartphones should have that so xiaomi claims that their fast

69
00:04:50,460 --> 00:04:58,800
charging technology can get the phone to 100 in 18 minutes but they also have an

70
00:04:55,979 --> 00:05:03,000
ability to enable a constant temperature mode which I guess will make it like a

71
00:05:01,020 --> 00:05:06,960
little bit less hot and even using that it'll get a hundred percent in 24

72
00:05:04,740 --> 00:05:11,520
minutes then they also have like 50 watt wireless charging which I think we're

73
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:17,100
saying is faster than the Galaxy s22 wired charging these are all on paper

74
00:05:14,580 --> 00:05:22,680
claims you know so this is ShortCircuit the phone apparently also has reverse

75
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:26,039
wireless charging at 10 watts ah the UI

76
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:29,039
here I I don't remember

77
00:05:26,039 --> 00:05:31,620
ever using a xiaomi

78
00:05:29,039 --> 00:05:35,880
uh the like they're they're I think they call it MIUI which is their flavor of

79
00:05:33,660 --> 00:05:38,340
Android it's Android 12 here apparently I haven't looked at the system but

80
00:05:37,259 --> 00:05:43,020
that's what it's supposed to ship with and they have their app drawer that's

81
00:05:40,259 --> 00:05:46,860
split into different uh categories so that's pretty cool I like the sort of uh

82
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:54,240
transparency that kind of looks like Samsung's deal will it charge my pixel 3

83
00:05:51,300 --> 00:05:59,039
it is and actually this is funny now because pixel 3

84
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:03,960
I Believe by default it only charges wirelessly at 5 watts and you needed to

85
00:06:01,620 --> 00:06:08,759
buy like the 10 watt pixel stand if you bought the pixel stand it would charge a

86
00:06:05,580 --> 00:06:10,259
10 watts new tag collected oh no it

87
00:06:08,759 --> 00:06:16,080
thinks it's like an NFC thing they're already at 66 and I started at 38. and

88
00:06:13,259 --> 00:06:18,900
the phone is getting a little warm my only criticism is make this a regular

89
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:23,900
plug and then I'll buy this phone is this available in North America

90
00:06:24,380 --> 00:06:30,479
all right time to take a look at these fancy fancy cameras that they make is

91
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:36,539
such a big deal about 50 megapixels each the s22 ultra has a 108 megapixel main

92
00:06:33,900 --> 00:06:41,819
camera but the pixel 6 has a 50 megapixel camera just one of them but I

93
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:46,680
I think this is the only phone that I've seen correct me if I'm wrong in the

94
00:06:43,919 --> 00:06:50,639
comments with three 50 megapixel sensors this better be good Brandon what should

95
00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:55,979
I take a picture of I'll take a picture of you pretty good I feel like I see a

96
00:06:53,520 --> 00:07:01,319
little bit more softness in some areas than I would like to but otherwise

97
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:04,500
things are looking pretty sharp viewing the camera performance of a phone at

98
00:07:02,759 --> 00:07:06,900
this point is almost more like you're talking more about the software than

99
00:07:05,819 --> 00:07:13,620
you're talking about the actual Hardware the selfie camera is not 50 megapixels

100
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:16,139
it is 32 megapixels there's a vlog mode

101
00:07:13,620 --> 00:07:21,300
wait 50 megapixel now we're in 50 megapixel mode is this

102
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:24,720
like using all three sensors I don't know but let's see if that's any

103
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:30,660
sharper oh yeah so that first photo I took was not

104
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:34,259
50 megapixels because I can't yeah I can't zoom in as far I'm guessing it's

105
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:39,060
not as a I can zoom in farther in the 50

106
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:42,300
megapixel mode photo I took than I can in the other one

107
00:07:40,620 --> 00:07:47,039
so I'm guessing that in order to make full use of the 50 megapixel shooter you

108
00:07:44,460 --> 00:07:50,160
have to enable 50 megapixel mode which is kind of weird I don't love that but

109
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:54,960
like I guess they're trying to save storage but the the configurations on

110
00:07:53,099 --> 00:07:59,340
this phone especially the pro one it comes with 256 gig storage options so I

111
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:06,360
don't think you're really worried about space that much with that

112
00:08:01,940 --> 00:08:09,479
uh Pro oh okay so they have like a pro

113
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:11,240
mode where you can like uh

114
00:08:09,479 --> 00:08:17,940
manipulate each of these settings manually so that's cool oh they have a

115
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:21,300
manual focus even selfie time so I'm not

116
00:08:17,940 --> 00:08:23,960
seeing like an extra wide uh option here

117
00:08:21,300 --> 00:08:31,379
but this already looks like plenty wide oh I can't take a selfie and not make a

118
00:08:27,780 --> 00:08:33,180
noise ai ai camera

119
00:08:31,379 --> 00:08:36,719
I don't know what the AI camera does but it's plenty wide though look at how wide

120
00:08:34,919 --> 00:08:41,700
that is wow we got the whole building in this

121
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:43,620
photo basically how's the stabilization

122
00:08:41,700 --> 00:08:48,140
stay on you for a second pretty freaking stable

123
00:08:45,300 --> 00:08:48,140
Brandon

124
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:56,399
this shot could be on a tripod I'm shaking the camera right now that could

125
00:08:53,940 --> 00:08:59,820
be on a tripod too I was that was a joke I don't know what resolution that

126
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:06,120
footage was at but apparently you can shoot 8K 24 FPS video with the main

127
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:09,860
shooter on the back they're all 50 megapixels but only the main one can

128
00:09:07,980 --> 00:09:16,440
shoot 8K 24 uh and 4K 30fps and 60fps but I guess if

129
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:20,760
you're going to be switching between cameras and stuff you don't have the

130
00:09:18,300 --> 00:09:23,040
option of doing 8K so you can just click up here and then you have the option of

131
00:09:21,959 --> 00:09:28,140
switching between that's pretty cool actually I like this little Quick Settings thing a lot of the time you

132
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:31,500
have to go into a full settings menu but I like that you can still see the

133
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:38,820
viewfinder while just like switching between 4K 8K yeah AKA 24fps 4K 30 or

134
00:09:35,940 --> 00:09:43,800
60. but what happens if I switch it to the ultra wide can I shoot oh I can

135
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:47,580
still no if you click AKA it defaults to the regular wide camera

136
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:52,560
but on 4K you can switch between the different lenses oh I should be able to

137
00:09:50,220 --> 00:09:59,640
film AKA however I want okay now I'm in 4k mode zooming in on jono tell me all

138
00:09:56,940 --> 00:10:04,440
your thoughts what are you thinking in your brain all right show me these quad

139
00:10:02,279 --> 00:10:06,330
speakers whatever that means

140
00:10:08,420 --> 00:10:17,880
this gives me such joy every time we do this

141
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:23,160
the screen looks uh you know

142
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:26,360
it looks pretty bright I believe them I believe them with their nits claims

143
00:10:24,959 --> 00:10:32,339
definitely loud like we're shouting over it right now as

144
00:10:30,420 --> 00:10:36,720
far as I can tell like maybe they have like two speakers in behind each of the

145
00:10:34,680 --> 00:10:39,660
grills or something the phone does like seem a little bit thicker than some of

146
00:10:38,339 --> 00:10:45,720
the other Flagship phones we're seeing these days so maybe they had room to

147
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,920
stick to speakers per Grill one thing I

148
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:50,700
also didn't say earlier about the display was that it there's like a

149
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:54,779
little bit of an edge going on which uh most other manufacturers have kind of

150
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:59,459
stopped doing many of them have anyways the speakers were I mean about as good

151
00:10:57,899 --> 00:11:04,019
as I'd ever heard in a smartphone maybe the iPhone might be a little bit better

152
00:11:01,019 --> 00:11:06,240
because we were yelling over it the one

153
00:11:04,019 --> 00:11:13,800
big question the the most important question in my mind the price and this

154
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:17,640
one is uh 1100 Euros I think for the 128

155
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:19,620
gig model and one and 1200 for the

156
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:24,240
256 gig model we don't have official pricing info from xiaomi right now but

157
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:29,339
that appears to be what it is there is a xiaomi 12 and a 12x that we didn't get

158
00:11:27,300 --> 00:11:33,959
