However, in the sub-9 million VND price range, this phone will have to compete with quite a few formidable opponents, and is one of them. So when comparing these two smartphones, which one is the better choice for users?
Design
Overall in terms of design, both of these phones have a youthful and modern appearance with eye-catching punch-hole displays on the front and thin bezels around the edges. However, personally, I find the front design of the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G more attractive with its selfie camera located at the center of the top bezel, whereas the camera on the Reno8 T 4G is positioned off-center to the left.
Furthermore, while the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G utilizes a flat back design and flat-edged frame, delivering a masculine and sturdy look, the Reno8 T 4G has a slightly curved back along its edges. Although this design may not be in line with the 2023 trend, it provides a more comfortable grip for users.
Mobile devices also offer the option of a faux leather back, providing an interesting and unique look. However, overall, both smartphones have a very modern and impressive design, so determining which one is more beautiful will depend on each individual's aesthetic taste.
Display
In terms of display quality, both of these phones use premium AMOLED panels, sharp Full-HD+ resolution, and utilize hole-punch designs to house the selfie camera. However, the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G has a larger 6.67-inch screen and supports an impressive 120Hz refresh rate compared to the 6.4-inch screen with a 90Hz refresh rate of the Reno8 T 4G.
Therefore, if you are looking for a phone with a large screen and impressive display quality for gaming sessions with friends, the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G will be a better choice.
Technical Specifications and Software
When comparing technical specifications, Xiaomi's phone is considered superior as it is equipped with the Dimensity 1080 processor. This is an upgrade from the Dimensity 900 series, providing powerful performance and 5G connectivity support. On the other hand, the OPPO phone is only powered by the Helio G99 chip and supports only 4G connectivity.
All these phones come with a 5,000 mAh battery, ensuring consistent usage throughout the day for users. However, the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G supports fast charging at 67W, making it recharge faster compared to the Reno8 T 4G, which only supports 33W charging.
Price
Currently, the OPPO Reno8 T 4G is available at a price of 8.49 million dong, while the Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G is available for pre-order at 9.49 million dong but comes with many attractive offers and gifts. It is worth noting that after deducting Xiaomi's gifts, the final price is approximately 8.7 million dong, which is only about 200 thousand dong higher than its competitor from OPPO.
Conclusion
After comparing the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G and the OPPO Reno8 T 4G, you can see that both phones have their own strengths. However, overall, Xiaomi's smartphone remains a more attractive choice with powerful performance, a beautiful display supporting a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, and impressive fast charging technology. Nevertheless, the OPPO Reno8 T 4G is also a worthy option with its sleek design and interesting camera system.
