what's happening everyone my name is Alex and welcome back in today's video we are checking
out one of the latest phones from xiaomi the xiaomi 12T and comparing it to one of the most
popular phones available on the market the Samsung Galaxy s22 now because the Samsung Galaxy s22 has
been out for quite some time well these days you can find a used one already furbished one
for roughly the same price as you would pay for a new xiaomi 12T so I figured this would
be a good comparison to make all right let's start by checking out the boxes and what comes
in the box with them both devices all right big box small box one manufacturer here is
pretending to save the planet by not including much in the box that's the Samsung here so in
the box of the s22 you basically get a cable and that's about it but to the 12T you do get
them a bunch of things so first of all we have a clear case for the device then we have the
cable and then we have a fast charger this is an 120 watt fast Chargers so the 12T here
supports 120 watt fast charging where the Samsung Galaxy s22 supports 25 watt fast charging so you'd
have to buy your own slow charger for the s22 now as for charging speeds if you have a 25 watt fast
charger for the s22 it would take about 50 minutes to fully charge this phone from 0 to 100 to the 12
T it only takes about 20 minutes to charge it from 0 to 100 so inside the 12T we have a 5 000
milliamp hour battery we're inside the s22 we have a 3700 milliamp hour battery so the battery life
on the 12T is also better than the battery life that you're gonna get on the Samsung Galaxy s22
moving on to design and build quality well here I can't really say that one is better than the
other one so they both have glass on the front and on the back they both look pretty good they both
have metallic frames they actually have the power buttons and the volume buttons on the exact same
side nothing on the other side of of the devices and at the top there would the xiaomi 12T we do
get an IR blaster something that we don't have the Samsung Galaxy s22 they both have dual speakers so
one at the top there and one at the bottom there even the SIM card trades kind of positioned in the
same place for both devices so design wise I guess it really comes down if you want a smaller form
factor or the larger form factor from the xiaomi 12T moving on to the front of the two devices
well here we have a 6.67 inches AMOLED screen on the xiaomi 12T where on the Samsung Galaxy
s22 we have a 6.1 inches AMOLED screen they both have the same resolution and they both have the
same refresh rate of 120 hertz now both screens do look really good I can't really say anything bad
about either screen but the screen on the s22 here does get them a bit brighter so the peak
brightness on on the Samsung Galaxy s22 is 1300 nits where the peak brightness for the xiaomi
12 team is 900 nits so you will see the Samsung Galaxy s22 better in direct sunlight than you're
gonna see the 12 team but keep in mind that the price of the new s22 is more expensive than the
price that you'd pay for a new xiaomi 12T both the 12T and the s22 have in-screen fingerprint
scanners now personally I'm not a fan of in-screen fingerprint scanners on most phones and that's
kind of the case for these two devices as for the fingerprint scanner speeds I filled that
the 12T is a bit faster to unlock than the Samsung Galaxy s22 but if I would have the choice I would
actually prefer a physical fingerprint scanner but yes they do have um in-screen fingerprint
scanners on both these devices as I mentioned earlier both devices have dual speakers so one
other top we actually have the holes for the speaker right at the top on the 12T where on the
s22 is just there above on the screen and another speaker at the bottom now it seems to me that
the 12T has the better speakers but let me play a quick recording here so you can hear from yourself
foreign
okay so after listening to both of them side by side I actually feel that the s22 sounds better
but what do you guys think do you prefer the s22 or the 12 T4 those speakers I also forgot
to mention the screen on the s22 is covered by Gorilla Glass victus where the screen on the
12T is covered by Gorilla Glass 5. so technically if you'd be to drop the s22 the screen shouldn't
crack as um easily but realistically if you drop both devices the wrong way they will perform crack
all right moving on to Performance so the Samsung Galaxy s22 we have the exynos 228 gigs of RAM
where would the xiaomi 12T we have the mediatek diamond City 8108 gigs of RAM so keep in mind
that the s22 is basically Samsung's flagship for um 2022 where the 12T is not xiaomi's flag
ship Forum this year if we open the gallery here I have a couple of screenshots of The
antutu Benchmark score so here the Samsung Galaxy s22 gets a higher Benchmark score I
was kind of expecting that even though you can't really tell the difference in performance what I
found interesting is the fact that the xiaomi 12T gets faster reading and writing speeds for
the internal storage compared to the s22 I wasn't actually expecting that now even though we have a
bit of a difference for that Benchmark score you can't really tell the difference whenever
you are actually using the devices so whatever you are doing on them it does feel the same on
both devices but I did notice that the Samsung Galaxy s22 gets much hotter than the 12 team so
you'll have more throttling and UDA s22 and every airplane games for an extended periods of time I'm
just going to open a couple of apps just so you can see how they both open these apps so really
no difference in performance at least difference that I've noticed in between these two devices
so everything is kind of the same on both of them and the same goes for pretty much all
um applications so we have MIUI 13 on the 12T and I believe one UI 4.1 on the s22 moving on
to something that's different between these two devices and those are the cameras so on the
back there the 12T has a main camera that's 108 megapixel where the s22 has a main camera that's a
15 megapixel now I've said this many times I feel the s22 gets the best cameras from any smartphone
this year so in 2022 I have some pictures that I took side by side just so you can show you
a couple of examples and do like a full camera comparison between these two phones but just so
you get an idea of the pictures they're gonna take on the s22 and the pictures they're gonna take on
UDA 12 team then we have the ultra white cameras I feel that the Samsung Galaxy s22 does better
with its ultra white camera once again and then on the back of the 12th T we have a macro camera
that's a 2 megapixel um sensor so nobody's really gonna use that 2 megapixel sensor
on the back of the s-22 we have a three times telephoto lens so I feel that that's more useful
um for most situations of course so personally I filled that the s22 does better with the cameras
when compared to the xiaomi 12T so yeah these are some of the main differences between the xiaomi
12T and the Samsung Galaxy in s22 which one do you think is the better buy on here the 12T or
the Samsung Galaxy s22 now of course if you'd be to buy both devices new the xiaomi 12T is about
200 dollars some cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy s22 but if you'd be to find a used Samsung Galaxy
s22 then the price is fairly similar with the new xiaomi 12T definitely leave a comment and
let me know your thoughts alright thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next one
