. Like most flagships, you get a triple camera setup on all of them, but given that even the most expensive model here costs half as much as a base Galaxy S23, they can’t be all that good, right?
But if megapixels are what you’re looking for, then the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ has got you covered. You get not 50, not 108, but 200MP—as many as the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, in fact. At 1/1.4 inches across, it’s a little bigger than the A54’s sensor and is paired with a larger f/1.7 aperture and OIS. Mid-range phone cameras are all about compromise though, so the Note 12 Pro+’s ultra-wide is just an 8MP shooter.
As for the Redmi, it is about as wide as the A54, but offers less contrast than even the A34; it also tends to overexpose its photos. You do get a bit more detail thanks to the 200MP sensor, but not by much.Redmi Note 12 Pro+ – Ultra-wide CameraRedmi Note 12 Pro+ – 2x Digital ZoomThe differences between the three phones are more noticeable when you look at photos from the ultrawide cameras.
The Redmi simply can’t match the colour reproduction of those phones, and its videos look shaky by comparison. All this is when you’re shooting 1080p videos, however; for whatever reason, all three phones turn off stabilisation for 4K videos, leading to some hilariously shaky footage.
