Xiaomi launched the new Xiaomi 12 Lite in Malaysia today. The Xiaomi 12 Lite is a versatile flagship experience for aspirational young adults that pushes the boundaries of design and computational imaging.
Lightweight, slim design for a fashionable lifestyle
Xiaomi 12 Lite offers an incredibly comfortable grip in three stunning colours – Lite Green, Lite Pink, and Black – with a sleek 7.29mm thin design and weighing a mere 173g.
The back cover has a matte colour gradient that moves with the light. The colour also extends across the flat edges, creating a simple yet refined look. Three elegantly placed metal-ringed rear cameras on its back convey a heightened sense of luxury.
A professional 108MP triple camera for taking a cover shot.
Xiaomi 12 Lite has a studio-level triple camera setup that includes a 108MP main camera powered by a large HM2 sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide angle camera, and a 2MP macro camera that captures high-definition images in detail from any angle. When combined with Eye tracking focus and enabled Motion capture, the camera setup improves picture clarity and quality and opens up a whole new world of possibilities for impromptu cover shots.
The front-facing 32MP camera has a GD2 sensor and autofocus capabilities, allowing for ultra-clear selfies with refined clarity and colour. The Selfie portrait mode with auto HDR is powered by Xiaomi’s self-developed algorithm, which uses depth estimation and portrait matting to simulate a true-to-life bokeh effect to deliver flattering fashion selfie results. The front camera, which is complemented by Xiaomi Selfie Glow—two soft LEDs—captures your natural beauty in exceptional detail in all scenarios.
Furthermore, Xiaomi 12 Lite includes a slew of impressive imaging features to enhance your social media posts and videos, including Magic cutout—a professional editor that automatically identifies and outlines people, cats, and dogs for image editing, Vlog mode with 19 templates for creating vlogs in a variety of styles in an instant, and other exciting features like One-click AI cinema and a variety of simple cinematic filters.
5G performance at the flagship level, with 67W turbo charging
The Xiaomi 12 Lite is powered by a Snapdragon® 778G chipset, which provides flagship-level 5G performance. The octa-core SoC, built on a 6nm process, maximises 5G while maintaining a balance between performance and power consumption. The multi-tier cooling system ensures efficient heat dissipation for a smooth overall experience.
The Xiaomi 12 Lite’s 4,300mAh battery easily supports a full day of usage, while the 67W turbo charging powers up to 100% battery in just 41 minutes to keep you on the go. For long-term battery health, Xiaomi’s smart charging algorithm – Xiaomi AdaptiveCharge – learns users’ night-time charging patterns to optimise charging strategy throughout the night, allowing the device to be fully charged right before the user wakes up.
For everyday use, immersive viewing and sound experience
The Xiaomi 12 Lite has a 6.55″ AMOLED display and supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision® for a first-rate viewing experience. The TrueColor display, which can display 68 billion colours, provides rich and accurate colour when browsing through photo albums or fashion catalogues.
It also has a screen refresh rate of up to 120Hz and a touch sampling rate of 240Hz for a more seamless experience. Xiaomi 12 Lite provides a comfortable viewing experience and works to reduce eye strain by including all-day eye care features such as Sunlight mode 3.0, Reading mode 3.0, and True Display.
For an immersive sound experience, the Xiaomi 12 Lite also includes a pair of stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos® spatial audio technology.
