- Impressive performance
- Excellent battery life
Cons
- Portrait mode needs improvement
- Fast charging could have been better
- Bloatware
Design and display
+
The Redmi 12 5G's design doesn't give you a budget feel. The glass back of the phone, along with the flat edges that have a metallic paint finish, offers a nice in-hand feel. There is no separate camera module on the back; instead, the smartphone sports three individual rings, giving it a clean and minimalistic look. While the phone feels a bit broad, its curved corners and 8.17mm thin design contribute to a comfortable and ergonomic grip. Additionally, the handset is IP53 certified, making it resistant to water splashes and some dust.

The Redmi 12 5G rear camera setup includes a 50MP primary sensor and a 2MP depth sensor. The primary sensor outputs 12.5MP images by default and delivers likeable shots in daylight. The camera's exposure level is well-balanced, colours appear vivid and punchy, and the dynamic range is acceptable capturing details in both bright and dark areas. The details also look quite crisp.

Performance and software

The all-new Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset powers the Redmi 12 5G. This chipset brings significant performance improvements over its predecessor, the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 SoC. Starting with the benchmark scores, the Redmi 12 5G achieved 4,45,286 points on AnTuTu, while its Geekbench multi-core test score exceeded 2,100 points. That said, the handset's performance seems to be throttling quite a bit on the CPU Throttle test while running 50 threads for 30 minutes.

Battery and charging speeds
+
The Redmi 12 5G houses a typical 5,000mAh cell on the battery front, which should last you throughout the day even with some heavy usage. The handset scores nearly 16 hours on PCMark's Battery test, showcasing its endurance.
