Xiaomi 12 Pro with Three 50MP Sensors, Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Launched in India
The Xiaomi 12 Pro, a flagship device from the Chinese electronics giant Xiaomi, has landed in the Indian market. The phone has a super-high-resolution display and a one-of-a-kind camera system on the back. The Xiaomi 12 Pro is the country’s first smartphone to offer a triple 50-megapixel camera system (50MP+50MP+50MP). The majority of flagship gadgets only have one high-end sensor, and the rest aren’t very powerful. The Xiaomi 12 Pro, on the other hand, has taken a different approach, providing consumers with an appealing camera system on the rear.
Xiaomi 12 Pro: Specifications and Features
In India, the Xiaomi 12 Pro has a 6.73-inch 2K+ true 10-bit AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, 1500nits of maximum brightness, and HDR10+ certification with Dolby Vision. The display features LTPO 2.0 technology, which allows it to dynamically shift between 120Hz and 1Hz based on the content on the screen. The device can support a touch sampling rate of 480Hz.

Google’s Pixel 8 lineup, i.e. Google Pixel 8 and Google Pixel 8 Pro, was launched in October 2023. But if we talk about the Google Pixel 8a, then it is expected to be launched in May this year. As we know, the Google Pixel 7a was launched in May last year.
Recently, the box for the Google Pixel 8a has leaked. The recent leak includes the retail box of the new Pixel 8a. On the box, we have an Obsidian Black color variant. The Google Pixel 8a will come in 3 colors, i.e. Obsidian Black, Porcelain, and Bay.
If we see the second picture, then it’s visible that this time as well, we have to buy the charger separately (it isn’t included in the box). Also, the new Google Pixel 8a will support 27W charging, which can be a good upgrade from 18W. But still, it won’t compete with 65W, 80W, 100W, and 150W fast charging phones. The phone is expected to come in two storage variants i.e. 8GB RAM /128GB ROM and 8GB RAM/256GB ROM.
The Google Pixel 8a with model number G6GPR, comes with a dual-back camera setup like the Google Pixel 7a and a little underclocked Tensor G3 chipset. Pixel 8a will also be a mid-range phone and is expected to cost $500 (Rs. 42,999) in India like Google Pixel 7a or $50 more i.e. $550 (Rs. 45716.91).
