WEBVTT

00:00:00.060 --> 00:00:06.899
show me the money xiaomi 12 Monies

00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:09.300
xiaomi is here with the xiaomi 12 Pro

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

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

00:00:15.120 --> 00:00:20.460
combination on it what's your freaking problem jono what are you doing this to

00:00:18.660 --> 00:00:28.260
me everything what is this what am I supposed to do answer answer my riddle

00:00:24.119 --> 00:00:30.380
I did not sign up for this a few moments

00:00:28.260 --> 00:00:38.520
later hey wow that was almost too easy the

00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:41.579
xiaomi 12 PRO Sound by Harmon and carton

00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:43.800
they got both of them this time and 5G

00:00:41.579 --> 00:00:48.960
connectivity because it's got the Snapdragon 8 gen 1 which I think comes

00:00:47.160 --> 00:00:52.980
comes with 5G by default most of the time unless they disable it this is the

00:00:50.879 --> 00:00:59.160
pro I think I was expecting it to be more of like a budget Flagship option

00:00:55.559 --> 00:01:01.980
this phone is aiming squarely at the s22

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

00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:10.140
happens to me every time on ShortCircuit I don't care about the actual

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

00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:17.460
back and I'm like that looks pretty nice sometimes I can understand why people

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

00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:25.860
your phone is objectively stupid they did the science the science is in I'm

00:01:23.820 --> 00:01:30.960
sorry the xiaomi logo like leaves a little Shadow you can see it now you

00:01:29.220 --> 00:01:35.520
can't see it you're lying the point is that's kind of cool

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

00:01:37.380 --> 00:01:39.680
for us

00:01:41.460 --> 00:01:47.520
that's rude very few people got some papers that

00:01:45.119 --> 00:01:52.799
probably say careful don't take a bath with it ip68 water resistance so that

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

00:01:56.100 --> 00:02:03.180
just kidding don't do it should I put

00:01:59.340 --> 00:02:04.860
the case on no gross looks cheap you

00:02:03.180 --> 00:02:10.860
want you want other people to know that you have an expensive phone

00:02:07.259 --> 00:02:12.739
wow I'm also angry about this this is

00:02:10.860 --> 00:02:23.160
the 120 Watt uh charging brick this thing's huge and

00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:24.599
also in the box we have a USB a to c so

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

00:02:26.280 --> 00:02:31.520
on the on the camera module you ever seen lines like that Brandon

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

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:44.519
Mike some holes the speaker things this thing apparently has a quad speaker

00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.660
setup we'll test that out I mean like there's definitely one on either side

00:02:46.140 --> 00:02:53.700
over here absolutely nothing on the bottom a dual

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

00:02:56.459 --> 00:03:03.360
and the other speaker Grille let's turn this sucker on after this visit from our

00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:06.239

00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:10.739
comfortable and most importantly waterproof with its dymatex technology

00:03:08.580 --> 00:03:15.060
and even more importantly on my foot their everyday move lineup is

guilt-free trust me you'll want to wear these puppies everywhere

00:03:29.640 --> 00:03:36.900
keep your feet dry and save 25 bucks with offer code ShortCircuit at

00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:40.019
vesi.com ShortCircuit the display we're

00:03:36.900 --> 00:03:41.760
looking at six point

00:03:40.019 --> 00:03:48.780
seven three inches 20 by nine aspect ratio and it's

00:03:45.299 --> 00:03:50.280
120 hertz refresh rate like most of the

00:03:48.780 --> 00:03:55.080
big old flagships we're dealing with nowadays in terms of iPhones and

00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:57.900
Androids and like those other ones it has it's supposed to have like an

00:03:56.220 --> 00:04:02.819
Adaptive sync thing where it like will adjust the refresh rate depending on

00:03:59.340 --> 00:04:05.640
what you're doing lpto AMOLED 3200 by

00:04:02.819 --> 00:04:10.260
1400 pixels now you have all the information we gotta hunt a thousand

00:04:07.620 --> 00:04:16.859
nits sustained I believe and 1500 Peak brightness which is actually the same as

00:04:12.420 --> 00:04:18.060
the fancy old mini LED iPad Pro that

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

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

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:30.180
smartphone 480 Hertz touch sampling I

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

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

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

00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:47.759
point that you can see the percentage going up that's pretty cool I feel like

00:04:46.139 --> 00:04:53.160
all the way smartphones should have that so xiaomi claims that their fast

00:04:50.460 --> 00:04:58.800
charging technology can get the phone to 100 in 18 minutes but they also have an

00:04:55.979 --> 00:05:03.000
ability to enable a constant temperature mode which I guess will make it like a

00:05:01.020 --> 00:05:06.960
little bit less hot and even using that it'll get a hundred percent in 24

00:05:04.740 --> 00:05:11.520
minutes then they also have like 50 watt wireless charging which I think we're

00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:17.100
saying is faster than the Galaxy s22 wired charging these are all on paper

00:05:14.580 --> 00:05:22.680
claims you know so this is ShortCircuit the phone apparently also has reverse

00:05:19.440 --> 00:05:26.039
wireless charging at 10 watts ah the UI

00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:29.039
here I I don't remember

00:05:26.039 --> 00:05:31.620
ever using a xiaomi

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

00:05:33.660 --> 00:05:38.340
Android it's Android 12 here apparently I haven't looked at the system but

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

00:05:40.259 --> 00:05:46.860
split into different uh categories so that's pretty cool I like the sort of uh

00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:54.240
transparency that kind of looks like Samsung's deal will it charge my pixel 3

00:05:51.300 --> 00:05:59.039
it is and actually this is funny now because pixel 3

00:05:56.880 --> 00:06:03.960
I Believe by default it only charges wirelessly at 5 watts and you needed to

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

00:06:05.580 --> 00:06:10.259
10 watts new tag collected oh no it

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

00:06:13.259 --> 00:06:18.900
the phone is getting a little warm my only criticism is make this a regular

00:06:17.880 --> 00:06:23.900
plug and then I'll buy this phone is this available in North America

00:06:24.380 --> 00:06:30.479
all right time to take a look at these fancy fancy cameras that they make is

00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:36.539
such a big deal about 50 megapixels each the s22 ultra has a 108 megapixel main

00:06:33.900 --> 00:06:41.819
camera but the pixel 6 has a 50 megapixel camera just one of them but I

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

00:06:43.919 --> 00:06:50.639
comments with three 50 megapixel sensors this better be good Brandon what should

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

00:06:53.520 --> 00:07:01.319
little bit more softness in some areas than I would like to but otherwise

00:06:59.280 --> 00:07:04.500
things are looking pretty sharp viewing the camera performance of a phone at

00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:06.900
this point is almost more like you're talking more about the software than

00:07:05.819 --> 00:07:13.620
you're talking about the actual Hardware the selfie camera is not 50 megapixels

00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:16.139
it is 32 megapixels there's a vlog mode

00:07:13.620 --> 00:07:21.300
wait 50 megapixel now we're in 50 megapixel mode is this

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

00:07:23.160 --> 00:07:30.660
sharper oh yeah so that first photo I took was not

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

00:07:32.400 --> 00:07:39.060
not as a I can zoom in farther in the 50

00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:42.300
megapixel mode photo I took than I can in the other one

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

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

00:07:49.199 --> 00:07:54.960
like I guess they're trying to save storage but the the configurations on

00:07:53.099 --> 00:07:59.340
this phone especially the pro one it comes with 256 gig storage options so I

00:07:58.500 --> 00:08:06.360
don't think you're really worried about space that much with that

00:08:01.940 --> 00:08:09.479
uh Pro oh okay so they have like a pro

00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:11.240
mode where you can like uh

00:08:09.479 --> 00:08:17.940
manipulate each of these settings manually so that's cool oh they have a

00:08:14.280 --> 00:08:21.300
manual focus even selfie time so I'm not

00:08:17.940 --> 00:08:23.960
seeing like an extra wide uh option here

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

00:08:27.780 --> 00:08:33.180
noise ai ai camera

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

00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:41.700
that is wow we got the whole building in this

00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:43.620
photo basically how's the stabilization

00:08:41.700 --> 00:08:48.140
stay on you for a second pretty freaking stable

00:08:45.300 --> 00:08:48.140
Brandon

00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:56.399
this shot could be on a tripod I'm shaking the camera right now that could

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

00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:06.120
footage was at but apparently you can shoot 8K 24 FPS video with the main

00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:09.860
shooter on the back they're all 50 megapixels but only the main one can

00:09:07.980 --> 00:09:16.440
shoot 8K 24 uh and 4K 30fps and 60fps but I guess if

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:20.760
you're going to be switching between cameras and stuff you don't have the

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

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

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

00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:38.820
viewfinder while just like switching between 4K 8K yeah AKA 24fps 4K 30 or

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

00:09:41.040 --> 00:09:47.580
still no if you click AKA it defaults to the regular wide camera

00:09:45.720 --> 00:09:52.560
but on 4K you can switch between the different lenses oh I should be able to

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

00:09:56.940 --> 00:10:04.440
your thoughts what are you thinking in your brain all right show me these quad

00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:06.330
speakers whatever that means

00:10:08.420 --> 00:10:17.880
this gives me such joy every time we do this

00:10:17.880 --> 00:10:23.160
the screen looks uh you know

00:10:20.880 --> 00:10:26.360
it looks pretty bright I believe them I believe them with their nits claims

00:10:24.959 --> 00:10:32.339
definitely loud like we're shouting over it right now as

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

00:10:34.680 --> 00:10:39.660
grills or something the phone does like seem a little bit thicker than some of

00:10:38.339 --> 00:10:45.720
the other Flagship phones we're seeing these days so maybe they had room to

00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:46.920
stick to speakers per Grill one thing I

00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:50.700
also didn't say earlier about the display was that it there's like a

00:10:48.720 --> 00:10:54.779
little bit of an edge going on which uh most other manufacturers have kind of

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:59.459
stopped doing many of them have anyways the speakers were I mean about as good

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

00:11:01.019 --> 00:11:06.240
because we were yelling over it the one

00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:13.800
big question the the most important question in my mind the price and this

00:11:08.640 --> 00:11:17.640
one is uh 1100 Euros I think for the 128

00:11:13.800 --> 00:11:19.620
gig model and one and 1200 for the

00:11:17.640 --> 00:11:24.240
256 gig model we don't have official pricing info from xiaomi right now but

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

00:11:27.300 --> 00:11:33.959
and I think those are that one starts at 650 Euros so there are some if you are

00:11:32.459 --> 00:11:39.540
like oh I definitely want to xiaomi there are some options as well but uh at

00:11:37.079 --> 00:11:44.160
1100 Euros probably look elsewhere if you're looking for one with like a much

00:11:41.339 --> 00:11:48.180
better price to Performance ratio but I am impressed especially with the

00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:53.040
charging well that was a ShortCircuit or as I call them long circuits because

00:11:50.339 --> 00:11:55.980
I take my sweet time if you want more videos like this subscribe to this

00:11:54.480 --> 00:12:01.100
channel but if you want other videos about other things subscribe to other

00:11:58.680 --> 00:12:01.100
channels
