Xiaomi 12S Ultra - Unboxing and First Impressions

**First Impressions of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra**

As I held the Xiaomi 12S Ultra in my hands, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. The phone's sleek design and premium build quality immediately caught my attention. I took a few moments to appreciate the intricate details on the device, from the subtle curves of the frame to the textured finish on the back. My gaze settled on the camera lens, which seemed almost too good to be true.

**Shooting Modes**

I decided to take a closer look at the phone's shooting modes, eager to explore the various features that made this device so promising. The Xiaomi 12S Ultra offered an impressive array of options, including documents, pro mode, video, and more. I was particularly intrigued by the range of zoom capabilities on video, which boasted an astonishing 15 times zoom. I also appreciated the wide-angle lens, which allowed for expansive shots that seemed to capture everything in sight.

**Camera Capabilities**

The camera on the Xiaomi 12S Ultra was undeniably one of its standout features. The phone's quad-camera setup, featuring a primary sensor, telephoto lens, ultra-wide lens, and depth sensor, promised exceptional image quality. I took some time to experiment with different shooting modes, including Portrait mode, where I could adjust the level of bokeh and filter effects. The resulting photos were stunning, with crisp details and vibrant colors that seemed to leap off the screen.

**Additional Features**

In addition to its impressive camera capabilities, the Xiaomi 12S Ultra also offered a range of other features that impressed me. The phone's battery life was substantial, boasting an enormous 5000mAh capacity. I also appreciated the fast charging capabilities, which could juice up the device in record time. Furthermore, the phone's display was bright and vibrant, with a Quad HD resolution that made it ideal for watching videos or browsing the web.

**Design and Build Quality**

One of my initial concerns about the Xiaomi 12S Ultra was its design – specifically, the decision to replace the secondary display with a leather back. To my surprise, this change seemed to have done little to compromise the phone's overall build quality. In fact, I found the leather finish to be surprisingly smooth and premium-looking. The device felt substantial in my hand, weighing in at around 230 grams – roughly comparable to the Apple iPhone 12 Pro.

**A Quick Photo Shoot**

To put the camera capabilities of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra through its paces, I took a quick photo shoot featuring some beautiful shoes that caught my eye. As I framed the shot, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and anticipation. The resulting photo was nothing short of breathtaking – with crisp details, vibrant colors, and a level of sharpness that seemed almost unparalleled.

**Overall Impression**

As I continued to explore the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, it became increasingly clear that this device was a true powerhouse in its class. With its impressive camera capabilities, generous battery life, and premium build quality, it seemed poised to challenge some of the biggest players in the smartphone market. While there may be some minor quibbles with certain design choices or features, overall, I was thoroughly impressed by this phone – and I couldn't wait to dive deeper into its capabilities.

the stormtrooper this is one of the most underrated phones of the year my favorite built phone the one piece ceramic back this is insane number three on my list the xiaomi 12 pro okay now these are basically the same kind of phones but this one is a little bit bigger and better cameras this is definitely going to knock the xiaomi off the list number four on my list i'm going with the vivo iq 9 pro okay this is one of the most slept on phones i love it one of the most customizable android phones and of course y'all know i'm a bmw m fanboy so the carbon fiber back this is a win and of course before we get into number five ladies and gentlemen late but still great white shoes is back in the building now here's the thing for number five on the list i know everybody's expecting me to say the oneplus 10 pro but i can't do it number five on my list after all the updates ladies and gentlemen the pixel 6 pro is now back in my top five the fingerprint sensor actually works the camera is way superior than one plus the software smoothest android on the market this is now my work phone and in my top five and of course rounded off number six we're going oneplus 10 pro now one more side note best gaming phone as of right now the xiaomi black shark 5 pro now i do like the red magic i with the rgb fan on the back but the black shark 5 pro has the best speakers on the market period now next week we're going to do the asus rog 6 pro so we'll see how that one falls in with the gaming phones but as of right now this is my favorite gaming phone all right with that being said let's get into this xiaomi 12s ultra the big boy okay now judging by the box you already know what's inside nice black box y'all know i like that giggity okay here we go xiaomi 12 s ultra now low key i've been waiting for this phone all year okay this is the the big boy this is what i've been waiting for all right so you got your sim rejection tool okay you got your usual books and plug them in follow them shout out to xiaomi for throwing a case in here okay samsung pay attention case nothing fancy just a jail skin but it's still a case okay so you got your device let me calm down let me try to calm down and of course now let me clear my throat 67 watt fast charging brick in the box okay 67 watt fast charging brick in the box samsung google apple pay attention this is how you do it don't just advertise fast charge and make me have to go out and prove it myself you want to advertise fast charging prove it by putting the charger in the box this is where it belongs okay and of course you got your usb type-c let's see is it a a to c or usb-a to usb type-c charging cable i choose inspect that for quality okay here we go now this is my first time seeing this phone in real life let me peel this off the back okay a little sticker struggles right ladies and gentlemen bang here it is the xiaomi 12s ultra now this is the green version let me do a smell test on this one this one smells like trouble alright this one smells like trouble for samsung even though let's keep it real let's keep it real the s pen is what made samsung win this year without the s pen we could have had a straight up debate you know ir blaster dot protection versus samsung dex and the s pen bluetooth s pen i think samsung is still going to win but we're going into this with an open mind okay so this is the green version this is the eco leather back okay now i actually love this if y'all remember when i did the uh vivo x fold in love with these leather backs now eco leather is not real leather but you don't want real leather real leather would not be water resistant so eco leather means you can get this wet and it's not going to get all frayed up like real leather would look there's your cameras in the back now this is such a missed opportunity y'all know my motto if it ain't broke don't fix it i don't know why they got rid of the secondary display on the back from the mi 11 ultra i love that phone so much and a lot of y'all thought the secondary display was gimmicky but ask anybody who actually owned that phone when you got the phone in scumbag mode right you got it like this on the table being able to check your messages answer phone calls control your music from the secondary display and just having that for when you get into your phone wars with your friends being able to say you got a secondary display that's actually functional they should have left that all right they should have left that they opted with the big giant camera in the back instead hey we're gonna see how it looks now this is the leica lenses okay you see the little leica brandon so these cameras should be insane got some xiaomi brandon now i love how the green has a rose gold trim on the aluminium frame so this is sick this is sick all right let's power this up real quick now the phone is not as heavy as i thought it would be okay y'all remember the me11 ultra that was a heavy phone this one actually feels a little bit lighter okay let's get a little wipe down now one more side note like i said if you bought it from giztop this is the chinese version the global version isn't out yet but if you buy it from git stop they will throw the google apps on it for you okay so let's go ahead and open this up and if you see let's see play store already installed there it is all right so i'm going to pause the video i'll set everything up and then we'll walk through the os talk emotions yourselves all right johnson we back in now i just put my information in the phone been playing around with it for a few minutes and i gotta be honest with y'all this phone is a beast but let me say this it's pretty much exactly the same as using the xiaomi 12 pro now for size comparison they're exactly the same size the only difference is i do like the build quality a little bit better on the 12s ultra i like the eco leather back it has a better camera on the back and a bigger battery other than that basically identical all right first things first let's talk about the build quality a1 yeah i know i got to say it feels so good in the hands ladies you know the procedures i love it i'm a big fan of this eco leather back no fingerprints okay so it's always gonna look nice and clean and if you go with the green you get this gold aluminium frame that color combo is badass now one side you got your power button you got volume up and down on the top ir blaster samsung all right the ball is in your court ir blaster on deck okay on this side nice and clean on the bottom you got your sim tray usb type c charging slot and one of your speaker grilles now level speakers on the top bong right there now a couple of different ways you can open up the device you can swipe up put in your pattern or your pin next you got face unlock look how fast that is all right google okay now look that is the one thing missing from the pixel if this phone had face unlock i think this would rank even higher on my list this phone is a workhorse it's a beast and like i said earlier the smoothest version of android on the market okay so if you've got a friend that only uses iphone and they always say oh android phones be lagging or i could never use an android phone tell them to play with a pixel this is the most iphone android experience that you're gonna get the camera is amazing software is amazing it's just the fingerprint sensor is not the best and no face unlock nevertheless i digress back to the face unlock on this one look how fast that is and of course you got fingerprint sensor all right google this is how your fingerprint sensor is supposed to work just like that now let me show you something since we're here talking here's the fingerprint sense on the pixel you see it's actually working now oh this high-ass power button i hate that too watch the fingerprint sensor there it is all right so shout out to google they did push the updates out so this is a viable phone again but fresh out of the box the fingerprint sensor is supposed to be like this just like that now look how fast i can do this this is how a fingerprint sensor is supposed to work you're not supposed to think about it you don't got to look at it all you got to do is press it pops open just like that same thing with face unlock you shouldn't have to be focusing and staring at the camera just look at it it pops right open okay now this is the chinese version so if you swipe over you don't have the google uh home page but you can just hit google right here and get your home page like that okay let's let this load up there it is now this is running android 12. so you see i got all my android 12 widgets okay my youtube turntable okay this phone does support netflix okay on deck okay

right here now you'll remember last year the mi 11 ultra when i did my phone a phone of the year awards xiaomi one can they beat samsung this year we gotta see but i don't think so you got the s pen they got rid of the secondary display that's why they have one leg up on samsung i don't think so all right this still might be number one number two on my list we got the oppo x5 pro all right aka the stormtrooper this is one of the most underrated phones of the year my favorite built phone the one piece ceramic back this is insane number three on my list the xiaomi 12 pro okay now these are basically the same kind of phones but this one is a little bit bigger and better cameras this is definitely going to knock the xiaomi off the list number four on my list i'm going with the vivo iq 9 pro okay this is one of the most slept on phones i love it one of the most customizable android phones and of course y'all know i'm a bmw m fanboy so the carbon fiber back this is a win and of course before we get into number five ladies and gentlemen late but still great white shoes is back in the building now here's the thing for number five on the list i know everybody's expecting me to say the oneplus 10 pro but i can't do it number five on my list after all the updates ladies and gentlemen the pixel 6 pro is now back in my top five the fingerprint sensor actually works the camera is way superior than one plus the software smoothest android on the market this is now my work phone and in my top five and of course rounded off number six we're going oneplus 10 pro now one more side note best gaming phone as of right now the xiaomi black shark 5 pro now i do like the red magic i with the rgb fan on the back but the black shark 5 pro has the best speakers on the market period now next week we're going to do the asus rog 6 pro so we'll see how that one falls in with the gaming phones but as of right now this is my favorite gaming phone all right with that being said let's get into this xiaomi 12s ultra the big boy okay now judging by the box you already know what's inside nice black box y'all know i like that giggity okay here we go xiaomi 12 s ultra now low key i've been waiting for this phone all year okay this is the the big boy this is what i've been waiting for all right so you got your sim rejection tool okay you got your usual books and plug them in follow them shout out to xiaomi for throwing a case in here okay samsung pay attention case nothing fancy just a jail skin but it's still a case okay so you got your device let me calm down let me try to calm down and of course now let me clear my throat 67 watt fast charging brick in the box okay 67 watt fast charging brick in the box samsung google apple pay attention this is how you do it don't just advertise fast charge and make me have to go out and prove it myself you want to advertise fast charging prove it by putting the charger in the box this is where it belongs okay and of course you got your usb type-c let's see is it a a to c or usb-a to usb type-c charging cable i choose inspect that for quality okay here we go now this is my first time seeing this phone in real life let me peel this off the back okay a little sticker struggles right ladies and gentlemen bang here it is the xiaomi 12s ultra now this is the green version let me do a smell test on this one this one smells like trouble alright this one smells like trouble for samsung even though let's keep it real let's keep it real the s pen is what made samsung win this year without the s pen we could have had a straight up debate you know ir blaster dot protection versus samsung dex and the s pen bluetooth s pen i think samsung is still going to win but we're going into this with an open mind okay so this is the green version this is the eco leather back okay now i actually love this if y'all remember when i did the uh vivo x fold in love with these leather backs now eco leather is not real leather but you don't want real leather real leather would not be water resistant so eco leather means you can get this wet and it's not going to get all frayed up like real leather would look there's your cameras in the back now this is such a missed opportunity y'all know my motto if it ain't broke don't fix it i don't know why they got rid of the secondary display on the back from the mi 11 ultra i love that phone so much and a lot of y'all thought the secondary display was gimmicky but ask anybody who actually owned that phone when you got the phone in scumbag mode right you got it like this on the table being able to check your messages answer phone calls control your music from the secondary display and just having that for when you get into your phone wars with your friends being able to say you got a secondary display that's actually functional they should have left that all right they should have left that they opted with the big giant camera in the back instead hey we're gonna see how it looks now this is the leica lenses okay you see the little leica brandon so these cameras should be insane got some xiaomi brandon now i love how the green has a rose gold trim on the aluminium frame so this is sick this is sick all right let's power this up real quick now the phone is not as heavy as i thought it would be okay y'all remember the me11 ultra that was a heavy phone this one actually feels a little bit lighter okay let's get a little wipe down now one more side note like i said if you bought it from giztop this is the chinese version the global version isn't out yet but if you buy it from git stop they will throw the google apps on it for you okay so let's go ahead and open this up and if you see let's see play store already installed there it is all right so i'm going to pause the video i'll set everything up and then we'll walk through the os talk emotions yourselves all right johnson we back in now i just put my information in the phone been playing around with it for a few minutes and i gotta be honest with y'all this phone is a beast but let me say this it's pretty much exactly the same as using the xiaomi 12 pro now for size comparison they're exactly the same size the only difference is i do like the build quality a little bit better on the 12s ultra i like the eco leather back it has a better camera on the back and a bigger battery other than that basically identical all right first things first let's talk about the build quality a1 yeah i know i got to say it feels so good in the hands ladies you know the procedures i love it i'm a big fan of this eco leather back no fingerprints okay so it's always gonna look nice and clean and if you go with the green you get this gold aluminium frame that color combo is badass now one side you got your power button you got volume up and down on the top ir blaster samsung all right the ball is in your court ir blaster on deck okay on this side nice and clean on the bottom you got your sim tray usb type c charging slot and one of your speaker grilles now level speakers on the top bong right there now a couple of different ways you can open up the device you can swipe up put in your pattern or your pin next you got face unlock look how fast that is all right google okay now look that is the one thing missing from the pixel if this phone had face unlock i think this would rank even higher on my list this phone is a workhorse it's a beast and like i said earlier the smoothest version of android on the market okay so if you've got a friend that only uses iphone and they always say oh android phones be lagging or i could never use an android phone tell them to play with a pixel this is the most iphone android experience that you're gonna get the camera is amazing software is amazing it's just the fingerprint sensor is not the best and no face unlock nevertheless i digress back to the face unlock on this one look how fast that is and of course you got fingerprint sensor all right google this is how your fingerprint sensor is supposed to work just like that now let me show you something since we're here talking here's the fingerprint sense on the pixel you see it's actually working now oh this high-ass power button i hate that too watch the fingerprint sensor there it is all right so shout out to google they did push the updates out so this is a viable phone again but fresh out of the box the fingerprint sensor is supposed to be like this just like that now look how fast i can do this this is how a fingerprint sensor is supposed to work you're not supposed to think about it you don't got to look at it all you got to do is press it pops open just like that same thing with face unlock you shouldn't have to be focusing and staring at the camera just look at it it pops right open okay now this is the chinese version so if you swipe over you don't have the google uh home page but you can just hit google right here and get your home page like that okay let's let this load up there it is now this is running android 12. so you see i got all my android 12 widgets okay my youtube turntable okay this phone does support netflix okay on deck okay calendars all my apps everything on deck and of course since you got the ir blaster you got me remote now i'll play with that when i do the full review alright so let's go through some of the settings real quick now you got all your basic toggles okay nothing to really see there you got screenshot screen record okay you got your scanner ultra battle battery saver this does have reverse wireless charging okay you got screencast do not disturb dolby atmos okay now if you swipe over again here's be all your notifications just like that let's take it to settings okay now let's try to make this quick connections and sharing you got screencasts you got printing pre uh private dns vpns okay all your scumbag services and you got nfc um excuse me you ever had to clear your throat but you tried to force it through like you just tried to keep talking i had to clear my throat for the last 20 minutes all right my bad y'all okay so you do have nfc everything available now wallpapers and personalization a bunch of different wallpapers to choose from and y'all know one thing that i love about shelby phones the super wallpapers so you got of course you got your snowy peaks okay that's how it looks and then bang so this is how it's going to look this is going to be always on display okay the snowy peaks once you pick up the phone you get to this menu once you unlock it it'll look like that okay so you got geometry y'all seen this one before pong you got the far away rings okay now this is one of my favorite ones once you unlock it all right you get to see the rocks that one is dope this is the one i'm using right now so if you notice you see here's my always on display then once i tap the phone brings it to the earth and once i look at it all right let me do that again with the um give you the full experience now before i go any further it does have always on display okay one of the best always-on displays in the game if i tap it let's do that again you see there's the earth and when i look at it it brings me to the surface of the earth now one thing about that that's pretty epic you can actually change the landing point okay so when you get to the home screen you got different areas of the earth i was gonna say earth earth okay and of course you got the red planet this one is sick too just like that now i'm gonna keep it real also if y'all see me shaking a little bit i'm back in the gym again i just did arms yo my arms feel like jelly right now so if you see me shaking don't worry i ain't got the parkinson's i'm good yeah all right i just got the shakes i got the post workout shakes all right let's keep it moving all right so that's it for the uh super wallpapers let's see anything else we need to see there oh now they got some other dope ones too check these out now these are the new ones that i've been playing with crystallization okay so when you unlock your phone you're gonna get that crystal effect that one is pretty nice i'm using this one actually on my 12 pro okay this one looks sick too these are just nice wallpapers that come on the phone but you got to download them which is good because they're going to take up actually any extra space but anyone that you like you can just download it just like that and there's a thousand of them to choose from so a whole bunch of different wallpapers and themes okay let's exit out of that now of course you can change your fingerprint animation we got starlight aura pulse now pulse is dope i'm going to leave it on that one okay now you can change your effects of course y'all know i got to go to starlight we got light up screen red blue and of course starlight this is my favorite one okay let's see you got your different fonts ringtones notifications and alarms and themes okay now for always on display you got a bunch of different ones to choose from now i'm using the super wallpaper one but if you want you got get a custom image okay you got signatures got a bunch of different analog clocks your kaleidoscopes digital okay got these uh select neon backgrounds a bunch of different chinese ones a lot to choose from okay a lot of different always on displays themes animals you name it okay let's exit out of that let's go to um display okay so of course now we've got it on dark mode max brightness 1500 nits right maximum knittage okay you got sunlight mode if you want to make it a little bit brighter when you're outside color scheme y'all know i like it nice and moist all right keep it nice and saturated let's go to um display now of course it's going to be stock our stock setting is full hd but you just spent 1200 bucks you might as well put it on quad hd same thing with the refresh rate take it over to custom and put it on 120. now if you want to you can drop it all the way down to 60 if you want to save some battery okay you got your ai image now we're going to turn all of this stuff on image enhancements okay hdr enhancement kmemc turn all that stuff on super resolution everything okay now it's going to eat a little bit of battery but you're going to take full advantage of this uh beastly phone okay anything else we need to see there nope that's pretty much it let's go to sound and touch now i'll do a little sound test in a minute dual stereo speakers they actually sound pretty good but i'm gonna keep it real with y'all i did a side by side comparison with the black shark and right now nothing is touching the black shark it's unbelievable i'll let y'all hear a little bit of taste for yourself but the black shark speakers i don't know what xiaomi did with this phone but they need to put these speakers on every phone okay the black shark speakers blew my mind now you got your sound enhancements let's go to um sound effects okay so you got dolby atmos you got different presets so you got dynamic video music and voice and you got graphic equalizer now i got the custom gotta know everything max like a douche but you got uh rock jazz pop classical whole bunch of different eq settings all right so play with the one that sounds best for you personally i like the put everything up to the max that's how it sounds the best in my opinion my humble opinion all right anything else let's see um keep it moving oh matter of fact let's go back one more thing i want to show you how sound and touch now if you go over the touch you got different heptic feedback patterns okay natural touch now y'all can't i can't feel it but the phone is vibrating like crazy i got maximum heptic feedback on okay you got realistic touch and you got critical feedback okay now this is stuff i'll play with and i'll let y'all know when i do the full review all right anything else let's go to uh home screen okay navigation you're gonna have your three bars if you want the three buttons on the bottom nothing to really see there let's go to fingerprints okay so you got face unlock fingerprint sensor you got our bluetooth devices if you want okay and of course you got second space i'll cover that when i do the full review let's see uh security okay now you got a little security sweep right here this is pretty dope you got your sos your earthquake warnings uh you got your family guard you can scan your phone for viruses payments you got a block list okay full security suite okay let's go to battery now 67 watt fast charging on this so gonna take you for about 40 minutes to fully charge you can put an ultra battery saver if you want okay shows you the apps that's eating up all your battery exit out of that there's your battery saver you got reverse wireless charging okay that's really not a gimmick at 10 watts that's perfect for charging wireless earbuds or charging up a watch okay exit out of that let's see anything else let's go to additional settings okay so you got your quick ball this phone is pretty big so you can use that if you want you got screen record you got accessibility okay so if you're hearing or

protection you got kidspace okay monitor your scumbag activities got your miui lab let's see anything on the lab uh okay nothing really new there and you got light mode privacy protection lab and that's pretty much it okay this phone like i said is a certified beast but it's just kind of weird because it feels exactly like the 12 pro now the 12 pro it's on sale right now for around 800 bucks which is one of the best deals of the year if you grab this phone for 800 bucks or 700 bucks you are a complete winner all right this is basically the same phone but i would say the build quality is a little bit better and the camera the camera is definitely a little bit better now i'm going to show you how to camera in a minute i took some shots of white shoes it looks unbelievable all right let's check the web browsing speeds go to apple.com okay snapdragon 8 plus generation one now i can add google chrome if i want but i'm using the stock browser right now okay 120 hertz refresh spread rate so the scrolling speed gonna be immaculate of course you got split screen multitasking okay let's do uh google on the bottom go to samsung.com okay so we got apple on the top i'm gonna take you to samsung on the bottom okay once they put samsung on the top put google back on the bottom exit out of that but this is the full website all right so let's try something else let's do um let's open up youtube okay let's make sure we got picture and picture okay let's go to my videos real quick now shout out to everybody that was watching my stream last night i was definitely wilding out let me turn this off okay exit out of that okay you do have picture-in-picture okay so we'll close that out now let's go back to let's go to chrome okay we'll set that as a default let's do a little split screen multitasking so now we do youtube okay so we got youtube on the bottom apple on the top okay so this is how your multitasking is gonna look let's pull up some video and there it is okay super smooth nice and silky now speaking of youtube let's test out the uh display and the speakers all right now the speakers on this phone do sound great but just for comparison i'm gonna put them up against the black shark five pro now watch this mr12 ultra yo i got a question for you how many i'm so spoiled after using this phone every set of phone speakers that i hear now i'm always like is it just me or these speakers sound low do they sound kind of trash it says that these sound that good but after playing with all my other phones these speakers do sound great now as far as display we'll get into all that stuff when i do the full review i don't want to make this video take too long let's take it over to the camera real quick now watch this i'm gonna get a quick picture of shoes okay look at this look at that detail this is crazy now i took some other pictures just now look how beautiful this is now of course i got to take it outside and really play with it but let's go through some of the different shooting modes let's see you got documents you got pro mode okay so you can change your white balance your shutter speed your iso you got video so you got wide angle all the way up to okay let's see you got 15 times zoom on your video okay let's see now you got 8k at 24 frames per second and 4k 60 frames per second okay for photos you got wide angle now let's check the zoom on this all the way up to 120 times scumbag zoom this is what i'm talking about all right this is one thing that i love about these phones scumbag zoom let's go to portrait mode now you can change your bokeh effects okay you got different pro lenses got black and white okay you got the swirly bokeh okay look at shoes right there let's see you got soft focus okay that's on the pro lenses let's see um anything else exit out of those you got night mode okay you can shoot wide angle all the way up to 10 times zoom in night mode and of course you got more so you got 50 megapixels short videos panorama vlog slow motion time lapse you got avatars avatar stickers movie effects ai watermark okay you got long exposure super moon multi-cam so that means you can use both cameras front and back at the same time you got clone and you can rearrange these okay now in portrait mode you can change your level of bokeh let's see and you got different filters different blur effects real dope all right now like i said um this is just going to be my quick first impressions i love it i just i literally love it i just hate that they got rid of the secondary display that was the thing that when i got rid of my mi 11 ultra that's what hurt me the most but this phone right now so far i love it i so far love it i will say this the leather back definitely makes the phone a lot lighter than having the glass back okay this phone feels feels basically about the same weight as the 12 pro all right let's do a quick photo real quick because we got we got shoes looking too cute okay now look at that beautiful beautiful let's zoom in on the nose look at the nose this is one of them camera cameras okay so anyway fresh out of the box on a scale of 1-10 i'm giving the xiaomi 12s ultra so far a major major major go it checks all of the boxes of things that i want in my flagship device now of course i could be petty yeah i know they call me petty roosevelt so there's some things that i don't like and i'll talk about those when i do the full review but ir blaster thought protection top of the line camera quad hd display 67 watt fast charge like almost a 5 000 milliamp battery dual stereo speakers i
