Xiaomi’s best mobile to date, the Xiaomi 12S Ultra, has given much to talk about since its launch. Generated awe with its 1-inch Sony IMX989 camera (the largest sensor that has been incorporated into any smartphone), but also controversial for its manufacturing cost. Now, he’s back in the spotlight after Zack Nelson of the JerryRigEverything channel put him through his tough endurance tests.
The tests ranged from the new camera to its incredible 6.73-inch AMOLED screen with 2K resolution. From now on we anticipate that the Xiaomi 12S Ultra proved to be quite sturdy for an ultra-premium devicebut it can be a disappointment for those looking for a durable device.
Xiaomi 12S Ultra resistance test: it passes fairly
The Xiaomi 12S Ultra’s silicone leather back cover was as sturdy as expected, but its frame proved be very prone to scratches because, although it may not look like it, it is plastic. Also, he didn’t hold up to the bending tests (folding him in half) all that well, though at least he didn’t break into two pieces. Its screen, on the other hand, performed better in the scratch test.
Like that of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, the screen of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra began to suffer scratches at level 6 of the Mohs scale, being more visible at level 7. What does this mean? Well, no, it doesn’t get scratches easily. Its Gorilla Glass Victus protection prevents it from being scratched or broken easily.
Where the panel of the Xiaomi 12S Ultra failed is in the litmus test. By putting the flame of a lighter in direct contact with the screen, the pixels burned almost irreversibly after a short time. So, if you have or are going to buy this mobile, keep it as far as possible from the flames.
In conclusion… Is the Xiaomi 12S Ultra a resistant mobile? Yes. Is it one of the most resistant mobiles that exist? Clearly not. In any case, it is shown that with a minimum of necessary care, your Xiaomi 12S Ultra will last for a long time.
