Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G indicates a return to time-tested basics of affordability

When we look back at this moment in India’s continued smartphone journey, a few years from now it’ll be safe to say Xiaomi’s played its part yet again in defining the course. Much like it changed the face of affordable Android phones in 2014, making it clear that Android phones around the ₹15,000 price point didn’t need to be riddled with compromises. Xiaomi’s pitch now leads the momentum towards 5G smartphones around the ₹10,000 price point. Not a criticism of the Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G in particular, but there’s very little that distinguishes MIUI 14 on phones, irrespective of price points. For what the Xiaomi Redmi 12 5G sets out to achieve, it shouldn’t pose any questions in terms of value or experience.
