Redmi recently confirmed that its Note 12 series of smartphones will be launching later this month in China. The brand has yet to reveal any information regarding the global launch of the Note 12 series.
Now, tipster Sudhanshu Ambhore has come out with information regarding the global launch. The tipster states that the Note 12 series will not launch globally till Q1 2023. This is in line with the brand’s status quo as the Redmi Note 11 was released in China in October of last year, and customers had to wait an additional three months for a global launch. Going by this assumption, we can expect the Note 12 global debut to take place in January or February.
The tipster also informs that the global Redmi 12 lineup will consist of entirely different phones from the Chinese models. This is quite disappointing since it will only lead to more confusion like the Note 11 series, which ended up having way too many models in the lineup.
The Redmi Note 12 lineup appears to include wholly distinct phones from the Chinese version, just like with the Redmi Note 11 series. That probably entails various SoC options, some design modifications, and possibly different camera hardware. Last but not least, while the Redmi Note 12 lineup in China will reportedly have at least one model with 210 W charging, that functionality is reportedly completely missing from the worldwide models.
As for the Chinese models, previous reports have stated that the Note 12 Pro and Note 12 Pro+ will feature the Dimensity 1080 chipset along with an AMOLED display, a 50-megapixel main camera, and a 5,000mAh battery. More information on the devices will likely be revealed as we get closer to their launch.
