Earlier this month, the Chinese tech giant announced that over 300,000 units of the Redmi 12 series were sold during the first sale. The figure included sales from Amazon India, Flipkart, Mi.com, and retail stores. However, the popularity of the Redmi 12 5G alone was also noteworthy, since it became the highest selling 5G smartphone on Amazon India.

In just 24 hours, the new budget 5G phone was completely sold out on the e-commerce platform. Furthermore, the orders placed for this device were from across the country, spanning more than 9500 pin codes in India. This clearly shows that the Redmi 12 5G was a hit in the 10,000 INR to 15,000 INR price range. The success is likely due to some of its value for money specifications like the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC, which is a 5G enabled processor that is based on the 4nm process.

The base model of the Redmi 12 5G also starts from just 10,999 INR for the 4GB RAM + 128GB storage configuration. Users can even opt for the 6GB+128GB variant for 12,499 INR and the 8GB+256GB version that is selling for 14,499 INR.
