Xiaomi 12 Lite Official Globally with 120hz Display, Snapdragon 778G

While the highlight of Xiaomi’s latest announcements is the 12s series that includes the Ultra model, the Chinese tech giant also made official the most affordable model with the 12 Lite. Initially surfacing a few weeks ago, the Xiaomi 12 Lite is the successor to last year’s 11 Lite 5G NE.

While it also uses a 6.55-inch AMOLED display, the 12 Lite bumps the refresh rate to 120hz, while the punch-hole houses a high-resolution 32-megapixel ISOCELL GD2 selfie shooter with autofocus.

You have the same camera module design like the rest of the 12 series, though the main camera is a 108-megapixel ISOCELL HM2. Accompanying it is an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera and 2-megapixel depth sensor.

The processor and RAM/storage configurations is the same as the 11 Lite 5G NE, though the battery is slightly larger at 4300mAh and now supports 67w wired charging.
