Pros and Cons

Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G

Strengths

The phone still feels premium after more than a year, with a solid glass back paired with a plastic frame.
The 6.67-inch full HD Plus AMOLED display with a 120 refresh rate and HDR 10 plus is a joy to use even today.
The camera delivers sharp vibrant photos in good lighting, with dynamic range and color accuracy remaining impressive.
The 5,000mAh battery still averages about 5 hours on screen time during heavy usage, despite some degradation over time.
The 67 W fast charger is a lifesaver, able to juice up the phone from 0% to 100% in under an hour.

Low light conditions can reveal noticeable noise and reduced details in photos taken with the main camera.
The front camera struggles in backlit conditions, delivering less-than-ideal results.
Battery degradation over time means that heavy usage can result in less than 5 hours of screen time.
