One of the biggest worries that users blame Xiaomi is the use of the proximity sensor digital. Unfortunately, based on the experience of use, it seems that this is not of the quality adequate to expectations. This is extremely inappropriate if we make a price talk. The company's smartphones, at least the top of the range, now cost more than before and we expect excellent quality throughout. In any case Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro they always use the same proximity sensor that we have seen on the other flagships. This has pros and cons.
Maybe that's the question everyone is asking: which one proximity sensor they have Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro. Always that of Elliptic Labs
Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro have the proximity sensor of Elliptic Labs, the same that also integrates Redmi K50 e Redmi Note 11. Elliptic Labs, a Norwegian artificial intelligence software company and world leader in Virtual Smart Sensors, has announced that its virtual proximity sensor TO INNER BEAUTY it is equipped on Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro. Apparently the Chinese giant has signed a large contract regarding the supply of proximity sensors for its smartphones.
How does the proximity sensor of Xiaomi 12 and 12 Pro work?
The virtual proximity sensor AI from Elliptic Labs turns off the smartphone display and disables the touch screen functionality when users hold the device close to their ear during a phone call. Without this ability to detect proximity, a user's ear or cheek could accidentally trigger unwanted actions during a call, such as hanging up or dialing while the call is in progress. Automatic screen shutdown also helps preserve battery life. Proximity sensing is a fundamental feature used in all smartphones in today's market.
Elliptic Labs' AI virtual proximity sensor offers solid proximity sensing without the need for a dedicated hardware sensoror. By replacing hardware sensors with software sensors, the virtual proximity sensor AI decreases the costs of the device and eliminates the risk of procurement.
And the 12X model?
Apparently, I do Xiaomi 12X does not integrate the same proximity sensor of the 12 and 12 Pro models. We do not know the reason, perhaps the reduction in costs since it is the model that costs the least of all. However, we wonder what kind of proximity sensor you mount. Personally I think it's the same as always, only that the company has not communicated it. I find it difficult to think that Xiaomi 12X is the only one with physical and non-optical proximity sensor.
really a shit, don't buy it
the proximity sensor is not hardware I say
