The Xiaomi 12's memory for games and applications is very similar to the nubia Red Magic 5G one, they have the same 128 GB internal storage capacity.
The nubia Red Magic 5G has a much greater hardware performance than Xiaomi 12. Both of them have the same RAM amount and 8 CPU cores. Xiaomi 12 takes slightly better videos and photos than nubia Red Magic 5G, because although it has a back-facing camera with lot less MP and a tinier camera aperture which is not so good for taking images in low-light situations, it also counts with a bigger camera sensor and a much higher video quality.
The Xiaomi 12 and nubia Red Magic 5G both feature quite similar battery durations.
