A few days ago, Lei Jun officially announced that Xiaomi will release the flagship of the Xiaomi 12 series on December 28. In the past few hours, Xiaomi officials and executives have done several rounds of warm-up ahead of the event. The company claims that the Xiaomi 12 is DisplayMate A+ certified.
In addition, Xiaomi also claims that the Xiaomi 12 was the first to create 15 new screen records. There have been reports that the displays of this series will be double in size. The report suggests that the standard model will be a small-sized flagship, while the Pro model will have a large size.
However, there was no report on the specific display size of this series. A few hours ago, Lei Jun took to Weibo to announce the size of the Xiaomi 12. This smartphone will feature a 6,28-inch display. With all that, the company managed to optimize this smartphone so that it fits better in the hand. She did this by reducing the width of the smartphone to 69,9 mm.
Lei Jun compares the Xiaomi 12 with the iPhone 13. The iPhone 13 has a 6,1-inch display with a width of 71,5 mm. However, the Xiaomi 12 has a 6,28-inch display with a width of 69,9 mm. This means that Xiaomi will put a larger display on a thinner smartphone. Simply put, this smartphone is 1,6 mm narrower than the iPhone 13, but the former has a larger display. This shows that a small body does not always mean a small screen, and a small flagship does not always mean a flagship with a small screen.
If we then look at the hyperboloid design of the front and back of the Xiaomi 12, it will be much better than the iPhone 13. And the former will be easier to hold. However, the small size of the Xiaomi 12 has its drawbacks in terms of battery limitations and power consumption considerations. To deal with this, the Xiaomi 12 will not use a 2K screen to increase battery life. The display of the Xiaomi 12 will be a 6,28-inch 1080P screen, which is not much different from the 2K resolution.
Це пов’язано з тим, що роздільна здатність вище 2K матиме більший вплив на час автономної роботи, а більш стабільну якість зображення може бути досягнуто тільки шляхом збільшення терміну служби акумулятора. Варто згадати, що Лей Цзюнь оголосив кілька днів тому, що мобільні телефони високого класу Xiaomi офіційно розпочали тестування з Apple. З того часу дебати про Xiaomi проти Apple стали популярною темою на Weibo.
