Redmi Note smartphones are very popular with consumers. This is shown by the fact that over 338 million Redmi Note smartphones have been sold worldwide as of September 2023. Despite reports of relatively low demand this year, one Note series smartphone has apparently done exceptionally well— the Redmi Note 12 5G. As per the company, it has become the fastest Android smartphone to cross one million shipments in 2023.

Redmi Note 12 5G impresses with its affordable price tag

The announcement was made earlier today by Xiaomi’s official X handle. “We’re thrilled to share that the #RedmiNote12 5G has set a blazing record as the fastest Android smartphone to surpass 1 Million shipments in 2023,” said the company. This data is for shipments from January to July 2023.

Budget Redmi smartphones have always performed well in the global market. The Redmi Note 12 5G in question is a well-rounded smartphone under $250. We reviewed it earlier this year and were impressed with its impressive 120Hz AMOLED display, a new chipset, and 5G connectivity. The handset also had a decent battery life but the camera performance was notably underwhelming, especially in low light.

To be more specific, the Redmi Note 12 5G brings a 6.67-inch AMOLED display that has an FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 1200 nits of peak brightness, and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. It is powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 chip under the hood and packs a large 5,000mAh battery. There’s a triple camera setup on the handset, comprising a 48MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide angle lens, and another 2MP shooter.
