As you have well known for some time, the DxOMark body takes care of testing their strict canons even smart speakers, displays and audio in all the exception of the term. Therefore, in addition to evaluating the photographic quality obtained by smartphones, becoming a real point of reference, the "singing" performance of these will also be evaluated, that is the purity of the audio returned by calls and therefore by earphone and music capsule, obtained from the main speaker .
Therefore the specialists of the DxOMark laboratory published the results of the sound system tests of the new iPhone 12 smartphone, which went on sale at the end of October this year.
As you can see from the image above, the score obtained by Apple's new creature is a value of 73 for both recording and playback quality. A decidedly good score but which places the device in sixth position in the ranking, losing with smartphones like:
- iPhone XS Max (74)
- Oppo Find X2 Pro (74)
- Huawei Mate 20 X (75)
- Asus ROG Phone 3 (75)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro (76)
iPhone 12 has many qualities, but according to DxOMark in audio the king is still Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro
iPhone 12 features dual stereo speakers, dual microphones for background noise cancellation, and Dolby Atmos for 3D spatial effects. The device also supports resizing of audio while recording video. In its review, DxOMark writes that despite the sixth place in the sound chart, the iPhone 12 performed well in all tests. The quality of the recording and playback is excellent. Watching movies, playing and listening to music is very convenient, because the speakers are positioned so that they are rarely covered with your fingers.
The only downside to playing the new iPhone is random resonance and low frequency distortion. But as my teachers always said, it doesn't matter how the numbers are justified, because they can be cruel or sweet as sugar. And so we have a 76 against a 73, 3 points of difference between Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro which therefore remains the RE of audio, and iPhone 12.
Obviously, it will be necessary to evaluate how the remaining examples of the iPhone 12 range will behave, that is the Pro and the Pro Max as well as the 12 Mini, but removed that I do not want to be the fanboy of the case and it must be recognized that this year the Cupertino house he did a great job and honestly 3 points of difference on a top audio however are nothing. However, let's expect strong shocks in the ranking relating to photo performance. Who knows if there will still be 3 points that will distance iPhone 12 from Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro.
