The Redmi 12 starts at about Rs 13,600 in Europe and is expected to launch in India at around the same time.
Redmi 12 will be launched in India on August 1, Xiaomi announced today. The new entry-level phone will be a follow-up to the Redmi 10, and while core specs are yet to be revealed, they should be more or less in line with the global variant which was launched recently in Europe. Which essentially means that we’re looking at a glass back design and triple rear cameras— both of which have been confirmed by Xiaomi India through the phone’s dedicated listing page ahead of launch.
