This is the first flagship phone I purchased from my salary. The service centres guys were really cool and I hope I never have to do any repairs on this. Thank you!
👍
The heat pad on the speaker is excellent attention to detail. I feel like the speakers technical limits get overlooked. My Note 20 Ultra heats up where the speaker is when playing music back at full volume. They are after all, a form of element, and they are using electricity not unlike other components.
I don't think I've ever seen a 2-way woofer/tweeter set-up inside a phone before.
6.5/10? One of the easiest phone to repair i've ever seen!
It could have a higher score if not for the special copper tapes on the upper side.
I love the noise of the battery pulling.
lol yup :)
it`s the nice noise of the warranty flying off the window :))
@@himanologanor4093 haha 😀
4:50 BEST part of the phone. On GSM are didn t say it have IP, that is a -, Nice camera, 2x zoom is low and no OIS is a -, Display GOOD. Selfie no 4k and is a -, Battery a good + if the 120w will not burn it in 6 months. I will buy if for 500/550 euro
👍
It is difficult to buy it for that price, maybe the Xiaomi 12x has that price and is probably higher, I would buy the pro for $ 799, the normal for $ 699 and the 12x for $ 499, but they will surely be Much more expensive, knowing Xiaomi
The battery is very cheap in china it is currently listed at 62RMB (less than $10USD) for the 12 pro. If you can replace the battery yourself, battery damage would not be a big concern at all. But yes if you quick charge it on routine battery would likely be heavily damaged after a year and a half.
keep the spirit keep on creating content 👍
Thank you, will do! :)
2:04 what does that white cable do that you remove? I think i broke that one while dissassembly... my phone still turned on tho
I broke the blue one, what were its effects can you tell, i was replacing buttons but was unable to and now my phone is off so cant know what it does
Great video! Good explanation.
Thank you :)
finally... English version 😁😁😁👍..tq sir
You're welcome! :)
I hope i will never have to do this but thank you for making such an in depth and easy to follow teardown. I much prefer trying to repair things myself to save money.
Edit: the number of comments from people who accidentally put the sim tool in the mic hole lol. I did that on my first phone and was so scared. Now I take the time to read the things they include as it usually shows where the sim tray is.
👍 You're welcome 😀
after 1.5 years, my battery health is at 79%. 120W is nice but apparently it's really bad for battery health. I will change battery for 30 bucks by myself thanks to this video
How did you check battery health?
2:45 are you sure about this? Even Xiaomi stated that 12 & 12 Pro have a AI Virtual Proximity Sensor and I don't think they would lie about they product.
Hi, if you look at their website under the specs of the phone (www.mi.com/global/product/xiaomi-12-pro/specs) you will see clearly listed as proximity sensor and not virtual. Not sure what they stated elsewhere but it does have a proximity sensor.
as it doesn't have ip rating so does that means its not water resistant? or is it just its water resistant but Xiaomi skipped ip rating due to cost cutting?
Probably cost cutting, but it does have some rubber gaskets around speaker openings and mic openings to help keep water or debris out. To what extend the water resistance is though, can't be certain. Splash proof for sure.
what adhesive is recommended to use ?

Hi bro sim Ejector hole & mic hole same near by
I put sim Ejector mic it will damage mic or water resistant ???
Can you tell me which audio DAC is used in this phone?
Does inserting SIM ejector tool in Mic hole damage water resistance or the mic?
It's such a common mistake that manufacturers have taken it into account. Usually the mic and seals etc. are actually not in the back of the hole but on the side of the hole so it's about the same as pushing the tool into the side of the case
Hello I wanna buy a phone cooler that is magnetic do your think it will stick up on xiomi 12?
I have inserted sim ejector pin at top of pin hole.near front camera. Will it damage anything to system?
Thanks for the video! Just wondering, why did you give this phone a repairability score of of 6.5/10. But you gave the normal Xiaomi 12 a 7.5/10? They both seem similar in construction. Cheers 🙌
You're welcome. The 12 pro was a bit more complex to take apart and took a bit more time than the 12. I am working on a new repairability score chart and will hopefully implement it soon to explain the scoring and how the score was reached.
Where can i get that backplate in OEM quality?
is it support micro sd card?
hello, could you tell me where is the EDL mode pins of this MI12 Pro //??
Hi, not sure.
Bro...how to solve camera fogging issue.
Does it have more rubber gaskets than the OnePlus 10 Pro, meaning it's more water resistant than it ?
HIII what about proximity sensor in this mobile phone physical one or virtual...????
Physical, you can see it @2:44 in the video
@@PBKreviews ok thanks a lot
So no any water resistance or anythjng ?
The phone doesn't have an official IP rating, but does have rubber gaskets around the sim try, speaker openings and charger port. So it should have some sort of water resistance but nothing is guaranteed since it hasn't been put through the required testing to obtain the IP rating by the manufacturer.
@@PBKreviews yea xiaomi does that, they dont wanna pay extra money for licence but they still do put some sort of protection on their devices. Thank you for your answer.
@@PBKreviews btw what are your thoughts on 12 pro ? Have u been using him?
Hello
I accidentally inserted the SIM rejection tool inside the microphone hole next to the charging port. I wonder whether it did damage to anything inside?
Hi, you will be fine. The mic is seated above the mic hole as well as the filter.
I only to replace the camera housing. How to do this?
The glass lens covers are held down with adhesive, you can heat them up and pry them off with a razor blade or x-acto knife.
Can you share camera images closely with code number on it clearly
some units have camera fog issue
what is the cause
how can we fix it
probably the adhesive around the front of the screen or the back cover on the phone are not adhered well and lets moisture in. You would need to check which the issue is from and replace the adhesive strip if you can find a precut adhesive made for the phone.
After changing a lcd, my fast charging is not working.. its that a problem with the cable?
100th comment! Btw, you can rate the quality of build, fabrication, spare parts used & design quality & rate the repairability accordingly
There's a proper tool to remove those tiny RF connectors, L-shaped.
Bro i follow yours i decided buy phone Oneplus 8t vs poco f3 which model you advised please help me to select thanks
Hi, it depends on what you need from the device. Oneplus 8T is a bit better Camera wise and has a bit more RAM but the Poco F3 has a newer version LPDDR5 ram compared to LPDDR4 in Oneplus. Poco F3 has a slightly better processor. Oneplus 8T has a faster charging capability as well. So if you want a better processor and newer RAM, your better off with the Poco F3. But if you want more RAM and a bit better camera hardware as well as faster charging, then you should choose the OnePlus 8t. :)
@@PBKreviews thanks bro for answer yours sincerely😀
@@bobosrg1079 You're welcome :)
I would like to have more videos on repaio
Mi 12, Mi 12x have Waterproof ip 53 ip 68 or Not , sir ?
I cant think of a "Pro" flagship without ip68 certification in 2022
👍
Does inserting SIM ejector tool in Mic hole damage water resistance or the mic?
Xiaomi 12 pro mic hole nearby sim Ejector hole
It will damage mic or water resistant
Please do one video
no it wont damage it because the mic is seated above the hole.
Thanks!
No problem!
Please do the Realme GT 2 Pro
Will do it. Have it on order, once it arrives I will have it done. :)
no i didn`t enjoy your video: it`s like this: "let`s take a look at the back panel: boom 0.1 seconds, now let`s take a look at the motherboard: boom, 0.3 seconds, let`s take a look at the battery: boom, 0.2 seconds...lucky me i`m a vampyre fast as hell snapping on the pause to admire this jewel
lol ya well the point is to pause if your interested in a certain area. When I let the video sit and run with silence, it will come out weird and people skip through it. Also makes the file larger and uploads take longer for no reason. Too much pause people don't like also :).
@@PBKreviews please watch the clips of others, like that guy that scratches phones and burns them with a cigarette lighter, they`re always twice as long as yours and nobody complained
@@himanologanor4093 yup because people like him and his personality so they watch the videos to watch him mainly, not as much for the phones etc. I have more of a mono tone voice so not as attractive for people to tune in and watch for hours :) I've had people complain before that my videos were long so that's why the re assembly I have sped up and shortened videos etc. Many people try to make the videos at least 10 min to have more ads, but there is no point in extending for no reason since people get annoyed and skip through it. Not sure. Some people like it longer but a lot prefer shorter and to the point. 😀
@@PBKreviews I think most people watch this type of videos for entertaniment, not to fix thire devices, so imo it will be much nicer not to skip this part and instead of silence you can do a voice over with more explanation and comparison with other phones you disassembled on your channel.
@@Ahmed-Aref ya true, however the way I do these videos, I make them more for educational purposes and to help people fix their phones so don't want to make it too much of an entertainment video. But i will try and add more info and see what i can do in future videos. Once I am able to afford doing other types of videos (which basically kill the option of resale-ability) like durability videos or other videos, I would be able to get more creative and make those more of an entertainment genre of videos since those can be more fun to watch and not something people would necessarily be watching to do themselves to their phones lol. 😀
Hey i need some advice from experts. My 12 pro only charges with 1W. Really slow. I changed the charger with cable, i replaced the accu, i replaced the charging port with Main flex without success. THX also for the Video. I checked the mainboard. All looks Fine. I dont know what else i can do. If the accu is empty with 0% i need to open the Smartphone, remove the accu, manually charge it and charge to min. 5%. Then i can charge the phone normally. Otherwise the charging process wont start. There is no more guarantee, the xiaomi store is too far away. Some advice?
Hmm reminds me of a similar problem that the iPhone 5c's had back in the day. I don't remember what the actual cause was, but I know replacing charger port, and battery was not the solution on that phone. But you can try replacing the battery just to rule out the battery being an issue. If that doesn't help, it might be the charging ic or controller on the main board which might have gone bad. Not too sure since I'm not an expert in electrical engineering.
Thankyou
Welcome
Nice
👍😀
😀✌
Hello sir
One video please
Where is 5G antenas and other.
There are some antenna lines on the top cover over the motherboard to the right side which I show, also an antenna board (which I believe is part of the 5G antenna on the bottom left of the phone that the red coaxial cable is attached to and there are also antenna contacts on the sub board and built into the frame of the phone as well (all those gold contacts you see around the frame).
Why 6.5
The breakdown of how I came up with the score is toward the end of the video. The score is just based off how I see it and break it down in the chart. It can be seen differently by others.
@@PBKreviews
Please about the proximity sensor it is hardware or software ?
All lens OIS is pretty bad for that level flagship...
best
👍
🙂🙂👍👍
😀👍✌
