The tipster has hinted that a premium Xiaomi 12 Ultra could also be unveiled, but there is no confirmation or details about the same.
While not much is known about the Xiaomi 12 lineup, some details of the upcoming smartphone have been revealed, thanks to some leaks. The Xiaomi 12 Pro and Xiaomi 12 are said to be equipped with the top-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip under the hood. The smaller Xiaomi 12X could be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC. Both Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12X will come with support for 67W fast charging and the higher priced Xiaomi 12 Pro may support 120W fast charging.
Xiaomi 12 Pro will have a 6.8-inch Quad HD AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate, Xiaomi 12 will have a 6.2-inch AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and Xiaomi 12X will have a 6.28-inch AMOLED with 120Hz refresh rate.
Previous reports suggest that MIUI 13 will bring a lot of changes that will improve the user experience. The update was earlier planned for the release of the Mi Mix 4. However, developers needed more time to improve the software, the report added. Xiaomi founder Lei Jun mentioned that the recently announced MIUI 12.5 battery optimization was contributing to the Redmi Note 11 Pro battery life.
