Xiaomi's MIUI 13 interface, which runs on top of Android 12, has been criticized for being bloated and heavy, but at least on the Xiaomi 12 Lite, it's free of adverts and crippling bugs, which we experienced on past versions of MIUI. With either 128GB or 256GB storage, there should be ample space for files and apps, and with either 6GB or 8GB RAM, working across different tasks was a swift experience in our time with the 12 Lite. We were able to play back demanding 3D games like Genshin Impact smoothly at medium graphics settings, and simpler games are handled with ease. With a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset, the Xiaomi 12 Lite has midrange power, but is likely capable enough for most people's needs. Shooting modes also go beyond those of the Note 11 Pro, with Photo, Portrait, Video, Night, Pro, 108MP, Short video, Panorama, Document, Slow motion, Time-lapse, Long exposure, Vlog, and Dual video modes.
Unlike the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G, the Xiaomi 12 Lite can capture 4K video at up to 30fps, and 1080p footage at 60fps. The 8 MP ultra-wide camera is powered by a decent Sony IMX 355 sensor and has an f/2.2 lens with a 118˚ field of view, and the 2MP fixed-focus macro camera uses a tiny Galax圜ore GC02M1 sensor (1/5"). It's matched with an f/1.9 aperture and the camera captures 12MP images by default. It's also bolstered by a 1/2.8” sensor size with 0.8-micron pixels and an f/2.5 lens.Īs for the main camera, this is a 108MP HM2 sensor that measures 1/1.52 inches – a superior 108MP system when compared to the HM6 found on the Realme 9. The phone's 32MP front camera features autofocus – usually reserved for Samsung flagship phones, as well as a dual-fill light. With three cameras around the back and one on the front, you'd be forgiven for thinking there's nothing special about the Xiaomi 12 Lite's photography story – but you'd be mistaken. That said with its small battery capacity, if you want to eke out a little extra battery life, 60Hz might be the way to go. Dive into the settings and you can easily bump this up to 120Hz, and we would recommend doing so if you want the best viewing experience possible. Out of the box, the 12 Lite's screen is set to a refresh rate of 60Hz by default.
Full HD resolution means the 12 Lite's as sharp as it needs to be in its price bracket of around $400-500 (roughly £350-420), and whether you're reading, watching, or swiping through feeds, it looks good. It sports HDR10+ AMOLED tech, so dark areas get nice and deep, and it also gets very bright too – peaking at around 950 nits. The screen's also a great panel when it comes to specs and quality. With a 6.55-inch AMOLED screen, it's still big enough to make watching movies or shows relatively immersive, but it slides into jeans that bit more easily than most. What also helps the Xiaomi 12 Lite's design is the fact the phone's relatively manageable. OsiriX HD for iPad in use during surgery:Īnd no, this has no relation to the teenager selling his kidney to buy an iPad 2.(Image credit: Basil Kronfli / Digital Camera World) In fact, this combination is already in use at some hospitals around the world, and you can watch a video below of surgeons using an iPad with MRI images within OsiriX during an operation.
My doctor happened to be using an older Windows tablet – remember those? – but I can see these apps and iPads taking the healthcare world by storm in the very near future.
Considering how expensive everything else is in the American health care world, I was impressed to find out that these apps are offered for free for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. OsiriX delivered in a far more impressive manner than I expected, it is one of the most interesting applications I’ve ever used. I’m just a curious patient, not a medical professional, but after paying the equivalent of a brand new midrange MacBook Pro to get an MRI, I wanted to be able to view the resulting MRI DICOM images on my Mac when I got home. In my case, these DICOM files came from an MRI.
