Redmi 12 5G render

Last month, Redmi unveiled the Redmi Note 12R in China, featuring the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset. Following the launch, tipster Kacper Skrzypek claimed that the Note 12R would be rebranded as the Redmi 12 5G for the global market, including India. Additionally, the tipster stated that India would receive a POCO phone named the POCO M6 Pro 5G, which would also be a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 12R.

As can be seen in the tweet above, the tipster has claimed the phone shown in the image is a global version of the Redmi Note 12R, meaning it is the Redmi 12 5G for the global market. The Redmi 12 5G’s design is an exact match with the Sky Fantasy color variant of the Redmi Note 12R shown below.

The Redmi 12 5G, which has the 23076RN8DY model number, has already been approved by certification platforms such as NBTC (Thailand), IMDA (Singapore), and the FCC. The Indian variant with model number 23076RN4BI has also been certified by the country’s BIS authority. Hence, the Redmi 12 5G is expected to release in multiple markets in the coming weeks.
