Xiaomi Nepal has officially launched the Redmi 12 in Nepal. It is a budget offering from the company with up to 256GB of storage. So without further ado, let’s walk through the design, specifications, and official price of Redmi 12 in Nepal.

Redmi 12 Overview:

Display and Build

The Redmi 12 sports a large 6.79-inch IPS display. This FHD+ panel supports a 90Hz refresh rate and has a peak brightness of 550 nits which should be sufficient for indoor and outdoor usage. Thankfully, it's a hole-punch panel, which looks cleaner than traditional dewdrop notches in this price range. Other than that, the display bags the SGS Low Blue Light Certification. Redmi ships this phone in three color options: Midnight Black, Sky Blue, and Polar Silver.Even as a budget phone, the build is quite solid here. You get a metal quoted plastic frame and a reflective glass panel. The company calls this "Crystal Glass Design" and the phone weighs 198.5 grams. Its flat-edge design and camera cutout are somewhat similar to Redmi Note 12 Turbo, aka POCO F5, for some premium vibes. Plus, it is IP53 rated against dust and water splash damage.

Chipset

Under the hood, Redmi 12 is powered by MediaTek’s Helio G88 processor. This 12nm chipset supports 4G connectivity and features two Cortex-A75 cores and six Cortex-A55 cores. This mid-range silicon should be fine for basic games and Battle Royale games like stable PUBG at 30fps. Memory-wise, you get ample storage for the price. It starts interestingly at 6/128GB which further goes to 8/256GB, giving it an edge in the competitive market. While on the software side, the phone boots on Android 13-based MIUI 14 out-of-the-box.

Cameras

As for the optics, the phone houses a triple camera setup on the back. The primary sensor is a 50MP f/1.8 unit, which is complemented by an 8MP ultrawide unit and a 2MP sensor for macro shots. Likewise, you get an 8MP front camera for snapping selfies and taking video calls.

Battery and Others

This smartphone gets its juice from a 5000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. Xiaomi Nepal has bundled a 22.5W charger inside the box by the way. It takes 2 hours and 15 minutes for a full charge. Other than that, this 4G phone includes WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a USB Type-C port for connectivity. For biometric security, there is a side-mounted fingerprint sensor embedded in the power key.
