Last year, Xiaomi unveiled the Xiaomi 11T and Xiaomi 11T Pro in the global market. At the beginning of this year, the company released the Xiaomi 11T Pro in the Indian market. Later in October, the company announced the Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro globally. So far, there have been no rumours about the Xiaomi 12T series’ launch in India. It appears that the 12T and 12T Pro may not release in India.

When tipster Kacper Skrzypek was asked whether the Xiaomi 12Tv and Xiaomi 12T Pro would be released in India, he ruled out the possibility of the 12T Pro’s India release. Talking about the Xiaomi 12T, the tipster said that “there is an Indian variant for “plato” (12T) in OTA, but there were no ROMs for a long time.”

To those who are unaware, “plato” and “diting” are respective codenames for the Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro. Since there have been no ROMs for the Indian edition of the Xiaomi 12T, it appears that it will not release in India.

The Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro would have competed with affordable flagship phones priced around Rs 40,000 (~$483) in the Indian market. However, the company may have a different strategy to rival the affordable flagships from other brands in 2023.

Xiaomi 12T Pro

Last year, Redmi released the Redmi Note 11 Pro and Note 11 Pro+ in the Chinese market. Both devices came equipped with the Dimensity 920 SoC. The Note 11 Pro duo was rebranded as the Xiaomi 11i and Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge in the Indian market.

A report from October claimed that the Redmi Note 12 Pro+, which debuted in China in the same month, will be rebranded as the Xiaomi 12i HyperCharge in the Indian market. Because the Redmi Note 12 Pro+, which will be available in India on January 5, is said to be identical to its Chinese counterpart, it is unclear whether the Xiaomi 12i HyperCharge will be available in India. Also, there is no word on the Xiaomi 12i.
