Facts as the maker states them. A dash means the maker does not name it. Each model’s page gives the source of every fact. Noise is the maker’s own figure, so we do not judge it, and a customer rating only counts from 20 reviews.

Price history
Xiaomi T12 specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.
Xiaomi · on the market since October 2023
Dimensionsrobot and dock
From the published dimensions. The robot passes under furniture with 10 cm of clearance or more.
Suction and brushes 1 fact
- Suction power
Suction in pascal, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot picks grit off a hard floor.
- 3,500 Pa
Mopping 2 facts
- Mop type
How the mop is built: flat pads, two spinning discs or a roller. Discs press harder on dried-on dirt, a roller rinses itself while it works.
- flat or vibrating pad
- Water tank in the robot
How much clean water the robot carries. It sets how long it mops before a refill, which a dock does by itself.
- 170 ml
Navigation and obstacles 4 facts
- Navigation
How the robot maps your home and follows that map. Lidar measures with a laser and works in the dark, a camera looks along and recognises more.
- LiDAR turret
- Climbing system for high thresholds
An extending leg or wheel that carries the robot over a high threshold. Without one it usually stops at about 2 cm.
- no
- No-go zones
How you keep the robot out of a place: a zone you draw in the app, a virtual wall or a magnetic strip on the floor.
- virtual walls
- Stair-edge sensors
Sensors under the robot that see a drop, so it stops at the top of a staircase instead of falling down it.
- yes
Robot 3 facts
- Robot height
How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.
- 9.5 cm
- Robot diameter
How wide the robot is. Narrower gets between chair legs more easily, wider usually means a bigger dust bin.
- 35 cm
- Dust bin in the robot
How much dust the robot holds before you empty it. It matters less with an auto-empty dock, which empties the bin after every run.
- 300 ml
Battery 2 facts
- Battery capacity
The capacity of the battery. It hints at the runtime, but how much the robot draws counts just as much.
- 3,200 mAh
- Runtime per charge
How long the robot cleans on one charge, at its quietest setting. After that it recharges and carries on where it stopped.
- 130 min
Smart features and warranty 1 fact
- Scheduled runs
You set days and times, and the robot starts by itself, also when you are not at home.
- yes
