Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro is already cheaper than Xiaomi 12

Usually we do not write about discounts on smartphones in China, but now an interesting situation has arisen when Xiaomi 11 Pro is cheaper than Xiaomi 12...

What is known

The Xiaomi 12 has been on sale in China since the end of 2021 at a suggested price of $ 580 for the base modification. Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro entered the market last spring. It was priced at $ 780 for the initial version, but the company is now selling the model for $ 575.

Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro, although it was presented earlier, has many advantages over the recent novelty. For example, IP68 water protection, a 5000 mAh battery instead of 4500 mAh with 67-W charging instead of 50 W wirelessly, a WQHD + screen instead of FHD + and an 8-megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 5x zoom instead of the TeleMacro module.

The Xiaomi 12 also has strengths. The main one is the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 processor. True, the Snapdragon 888 has enough power for any task. For some users, the more compact dimensions of the new product may be an advantage - 152.7 x 69.9 x 8.2 mm versus 164.3 x 74.6 x 8.5 mm.

How long the company plans to sell the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro for $ 575 is still unknown. At such a cost, many are ready to give preference to the older flagship.
