Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro supports 120Hz refresh rate, and has a dynamic refresh rate function, which can change the refresh rate with the change of the speed of the system screen movement, when it is stationary, the refresh rate drops to 10Hz, but in the process of use, we can not detect the change in the refresh rate with the naked eye, and the whole process is still very smooth and insensitive.
performance
Qualcomm's new generation Snapdragon 8 processor, using a 4nm process process, has 20% higher performance and 30% lower power consumption. The Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro also features a new generation of Adreno GPUs, the first architectural upgrade in five years, with a 60% increase in gpu core area and a 30% increase in graphics rendering speeds.
In addition to performance improvement, heat dissipation capacity is also very important for user experience, Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro is equipped with a large area of heat dissipation VC, completely covering the concentrated heating area, with three layers of oversized graphite sheet, can make heat quickly exported. Even in the fast charging state, the phone will not overheat.
The Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro has reached a very powerful 1.02 million running points in Antutu, and it is natural to deal with common games. In addition, Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro also brings three different modes, "Balanced Mode" can achieve a good balance in performance and battery life to meet the needs of daily use, "Performance Mode" can bring continuous and stable performance output in the game scene, and "Extreme Mode" can further improve performance release and bring more excellent picture fluency.

Although the flagship chip can give full play to the performance of the mobile phone, it has maintained the highest performance, which will also significantly increase the heat problem and power consumption. In this regard, the Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro brings dynamic performance scheduling technology, which limits the maximum performance in scenarios that are not easily perceived by the user. During the game, the dynamic performance scheduling technology can analyze the game progress in real time, dynamically reduce the frequency when playing a single player at a lower load, and in high-pressure scenarios such as multiplayer team battles, it can be predicted in advance, and frequency scheduling is carried out for all cores within 1ms to ensure that the frame rate is stable.
In terms of battery life, the Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro has a 4600mAh single-cell battery, and the advantage of a single battery is that it can provide more battery capacity than dual cells without changing the body volume. The Xiaomi Mi 12 Pro also supports 120W fast charging, and with the Xiaomi self-developed surging P1 chip, it can make the battery capacity and fast charging both.
