What is the Xiaomi 12S?

Xiaomi has been heavily teasing the 12S Pro handset via its official channels in China, such as the social media site Weibo, so we actually already know a fair bit about this device even before its launch. The camera set-up will be consist of three 50-megapixel sensors, and it will be capable of 120W wired fast-charging.
