Xiaomi, the global technology leader, has officially launched the highly anticipated Redmi Note 12 Pro in Pakistan. This smartphone boasts 8GB RAM and 256GB of internal storage, and its initial availability on mistore.pk was quickly met with unprecedented demand, leading to a swift sell-out. For those who missed out, there's good news Xiaomi plans to introduce an 8GB/128GB variant soon, which is expected to come with a more budget-friendly price tag.
The Popularity of the Redmi Series and the Current Scenario
The Redmi series has garnered immense popularity among the masses, thanks to its competitive pricing and impressive features. However, the latest Redmi Note 12 Pro model comes with a notable price hike compared to its predecessor, the Redmi Note 10 Pro. The increase in smartphone prices can be attributed to currency devaluation and higher taxes, which have impacted the consumer electronics market in Pakistan.
Introducing the Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G
It's essential to clarify that the Redmi Note 12 Pro available in Pakistan is the international variant known as the 'Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G.' This version, although slightly cheaper, is underpowered compared to the actual Redmi Note 12 Pro available in other markets. While it may not be as feature-rich, it still offers significant value for money in its price range.
Display and Performance
The Redmi Note 12 Pro sports a vibrant 6.67″ FHD+ AMOLED DotDisplay with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels and a commendable 120Hz refresh rate. Though it may not boast the most cutting-edge hardware, it is powered by the Snapdragon 732G chipset, featuring an Octa-core CPU clocked at up to 2.2GHz. While this chipset may not match the latest flagship processors, it delivers smooth performance for everyday tasks and light gaming.
Camera Capabilities
Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the Redmi Note 12 Pro's triple rear camera setup. It features a 108MP wide camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera, ensuring users can capture stunning photos from different perspectives. On the front, there's a 16MP camera for high-quality selfies and video calls.
Enduring Battery and Fast Charging
The smartphone packs a substantial 5000mAh battery, offering extended usage without frequent recharges. Moreover, the 67W turbo charging feature ensures that the device charges up quickly when needed. The in-box 67W charger and USB-C port provide a hassle-free charging experience.
Warranty and Bonus Offer
Xiaomi Pakistan stands behind the Redmi Note 12 Pro, offering a generous 3-year warranty, providing users with peace of mind. Additionally, buyers of the Redmi Note 12 Pro will receive a complimentary 1-month subscription to StarzPlay, enhancing their entertainment experience.
Availability and Future Restocking
With the initial stock already sold out on mistore.pk, Xiaomi fans can expect the device to be restocked in the coming weeks. Furthermore, the smartphone will soon be available in local retail stores, providing more accessibility to interested buyers.
