Xiaomi Notebook Pro 120G: key features and specifications 

The Xiaomi Notebook Pro 120G carry forward the MacBook-like design, which Xiaomi laptops have followed since its inception. 

On the display front, it has a 14-inch 2.5K (2560x1600px) display with a refresh rate of 120Hz. The display can be set to 120Hz, 90Hz or 60Hz refresh rates; it is not limited to 120Hz. The display has an aspect ratio of 16:10 and supports a 100% colour gamut. The display also supports DC dimming.

The laptop comes in two variants, one with a dedicated GPU and the other with an onboard GPU. And both the variants come with the same 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB OF PCIe Gen 4 internal storage. 

Xiaomi Notebook Pro 120G is powered by the latest 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12450H processor. And the higher model comes with Nvidia MX550 GPU. 

Xiaomi Notebook Pro 120G Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth v5.2, Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.0 port, USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port, USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A port, and a 3.5mm combo headphone and mic jack. It has a dual stereo 2W speaker setup and supports DTS audio. And on the device has a 720p webcam. 

This laptop has a 56Wh battery and supports Type C charging with 100W fast charging. With the bundled charger, the laptop can go from 0-50 in 35 minutes. 

The laptop comes with Windows 11 out of the box and pre-installed with Microsoft Office home and student 2021.

A good productivity laptop? 

Xiaomi Notebook Pro 120G seems like a great laptop, considering the features and specifications it provides for the price. 

The Alder Lake Intel Core i5 12450H processor in the laptop is a competent one because it is not a U series processor that you would typically see in this segment of laptops. H series Intel processors are usually found in gaming laptops, which assures better performance than other productivity laptops on the market. 

But the 120Hz display can be seen as a gimmick, and it won't be much of use as you might not be using this laptop for hard-core gaming.
