Lol depend on the price. 8 gen 1 Chip that's in mi 12 really not good. Higher battery consumption, very hot when gaming and throttling issue during heavy load. That's why I get the 8+ gen 1 by tsmc instead.

If you didn't really gaming, don't mind on 8 gen 1 and wanna get an aluminum body plus wireless charging then mi 12 might be a good option

Xiaomi 13 with 8 gen 2 I suppose the price should be above 3.5k and it might be only arriving Malaysia Q1 2023. By then u have other option from OnePlus with 8 gen 2 as well
