The Redmi Note 12 Turbo was released almost a year ago in China. The device goes by Poco F5 in global markets.
It continues to be one of the most powerful mid-range smartphones on the market. Before it hits a year old, Xiaomi is rolling out the first major software update for this handset.
The Redmi Note 12 Turbo is now receiving HyperOS update based on Android 14 in China. For the unaware, the device debuted with MIUI 14 based on Android 13.
The new software is currently limited to beta testers. It arrives with build number 1.0.2.0.UMRCNXM and weighs 5.5GB.
The same build should roll out to all users in the coming days if there are no major bugs. Else, the company might seed a new build with fixes. We expect the Poco F5 to also get the HyperOS update soon.
The main highlight of the Redmi Note 12 Turbo is its chipset — Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 Plus Gen 2. It is the only phone other than Realme GT Neo 5 SE to use this chip. This SoC is paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage.
The handset flaunts a 6.67-inch centered punch-hole OLED display with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels (FHD+) and a 120Hz refresh rate. The panel has minimal bezels and supports Dolby Vision.
The smartphone arrives with a triple camera system comprising a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide unit, and a 2MP macro snapper. On the front, it has a 16MP selfie camera.
The phone not only comes with dual stereo speakers but also a 3.5mm headphone jack. Finally, it draws energy from a 5,000mAh battery and supports 67W wired charging.
