About the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12
The Redmi Note 12 built its reputation on giving budget buyers a screen that belongs on a far more expensive phone. Its 6.67-inch AMOLED panel runs at 120Hz and pushes up to 1,200 nits at peak, so blacks look properly black and the display stays readable outdoors - a step up from the LCD screens most rivals used at this level. Around that sits a sensibly balanced package: a 5,000mAh battery that lasts well over a day, 33W charging that refills half the cell in around 22 minutes, and the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chip which handles everyday apps and 5G without fuss but is not built for heavy gaming. Xiaomi also kept the things budget buyers actually use, including a 3.5mm headphone jack, a microSD slot and an IP53 rating for light splashes. The compromises show in the camera, where the 48MP main sensor does respectable work in daylight but lacks optical stabilisation and struggles at night. Years after launch it remains a solid value pick if screen quality and battery life matter more than photography or raw speed.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 worth buying?
The Redmi Note 12 is worth buying if you want a large 120Hz AMOLED screen and dependable battery life on a budget. The Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chip is fine for messaging, streaming and social apps but not for demanding games, and the camera is only average once the light drops. As an inexpensive everyday phone it still holds up well.
Does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 have 5G?
Yes, this version of the Redmi Note 12 uses the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chip with 5G support, so it works on 5G networks across the UK. Note that Xiaomi also sold a separate 4G-only Redmi Note 12 in some markets, so check the listing carefully if 5G matters to you.
Is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 camera good?
The 48MP main camera takes clean, detailed photos in good light, backed by an 8MP ultrawide and a 2MP macro lens that are far less useful. There is no optical image stabilisation, so low-light shots and handheld video are noticeably softer than on phones a tier above. It is competent for everyday snaps rather than a reason to buy.
How fast does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 charge?
The Redmi Note 12 supports 33W wired charging, which takes the 5,000mAh battery to around 50 percent in roughly 22 minutes. There is no wireless charging, which is normal at this level.
Does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 have a headphone jack and expandable storage?
Yes. It keeps a 3.5mm headphone jack and a microSD card slot, although the card shares the tray with the second SIM, so you have to choose between dual SIM and extra storage. Internal options run from 128GB up to 256GB.
Should I get the Redmi Note 12 or the Redmi Note 12 Pro?
Both share a 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED screen and 5,000mAh battery, but the Pro is the stronger phone: a faster Dimensity 1080 chip, a 50MP main camera with optical stabilisation, stereo speakers and 67W charging that fills the battery in under an hour. The trade-off is that the Pro drops the microSD slot. Compare Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro deals if camera quality and charging speed matter most.
