About the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro was the point at which Redmi stopped chasing megapixel counts and started chasing photo quality. Out went the 108MP sensor of the previous generation and in came a 50MP Sony IMX766 with optical stabilisation, a much larger sensor that holds up far better indoors and after dark. It is the most meaningful change on a phone that otherwise looks familiar: the 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED is the same size and sharpness as before, but it is now wrapped in a body 20g lighter and noticeably slimmer, which makes a real difference over a day of use. The Dimensity 1080 is a sensible mid-range chip rather than a fast one, comfortably handling everyday apps and lighter gaming without pretending to be a flagship. Charging is the other standout, with 67W wired refilling the 5,000mAh battery in well under an hour. The compromises are familiar Redmi ones: an 8MP ultrawide that is clearly a step below the main camera, a token 2MP macro lens and no microSD slot. Years on, it remains a capable mid-range option if you can live with older software.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro worth buying?
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro is still worth buying if you want a stabilised 50MP main camera, a 120Hz AMOLED screen and very fast 67W charging without paying mid-range money. The Dimensity 1080 is capable rather than quick, and the ultrawide and macro cameras are weak. The bigger caveat in 2026 is age, since it launched on Android 12 with MIUI and its update runway is behind it.
Is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro camera good?
Yes, by mid-range standards. The 50MP Sony IMX766 main sensor with optical image stabilisation is the strongest part of the phone, producing clean daylight shots and holding up better in low light than most rivals in its class. The 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro are much weaker, so the main camera is the one to rely on.
How fast does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro charge?
The Redmi Note 12 Pro supports 67W wired charging, which fills the 5,000mAh battery from empty in roughly 50 minutes. There is no wireless charging, but the wired speed is fast enough that a short top-up before leaving the house is genuinely useful.
Does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro have a headphone jack and microSD slot?
It has a 3.5mm headphone jack but no microSD card slot. Storage is fixed at whichever capacity you buy, 128GB or 256GB, so it is worth choosing the larger option if you take a lot of video. It also has NFC for contactless payments and an IP53 rating that covers splashes rather than immersion.
Does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro support 5G?
Yes, the Redmi Note 12 Pro is a 5G phone, powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 1080 with an integrated 5G modem. It works on all the UK's 5G networks, alongside Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and NFC.
What is the difference between the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro and the standard Redmi Note 12?
Both share a 6.67-inch 120Hz AMOLED display and a 5,000mAh battery, but the Pro moves to the 5G Dimensity 1080, a stabilised 50MP Sony IMX766 main camera and 67W charging, against the standard Note 12's 4G Snapdragon 685 and 33W charging. The standard model keeps a microSD slot that the Pro drops.

Based on main-sensor size (1-inch / 1/1.3" beats 1/2.0"), telephoto reach (periscope > 5x > 3x optical), image processing tier (Apple Pro, Pixel Pro, Galaxy Ultra, Honor Magic Pro, Xiaomi Ultra), pro video features (ProRes, Apple Log, Dolby Vision), camera-partnership branding (Leica, Hasselblad, Zeiss) and OIS. Older flagships are de-rated since image processing pipelines have advanced significantly each generation. Megapixel count is deliberately downweighted — it correlates poorly with real-world camera quality.

Based on battery capacity (mAh) adjusted for platform efficiency calibrated against NotebookCheck, Tom's Guide, GSMArena and CNET reviewer tests. Apple A-series gets +45% (iOS process freezing + LTPO 1Hz + tuned panels make iPhone Pro Max outlast many 6500+ mAh Android phones in measured tests). Top Snapdragon / Dimensity flagships get +15%, budget chipsets are penalised −15% to −25% to reflect less efficient displays and looser background limits. Charging speed is excluded — see the separate Fast charging tag for that.
