Should you buy the REDMI Note 12 Pro?
The REDMI Note 12 Pro suits buyers who want a large 120Hz AMOLED screen and a 108 MP camera. Fast 67W charging is another plus. It also keeps a headphone jack and a microSD slot. However, the phone is no longer produced, and its security updates have ended. It also lacks 5G. Buyers who need ongoing updates should look at newer REDMI models instead.
