Rebranded Redmi

As we know, it’s not an entirely new model, but a rebranded smartphone: Redmi Note 12 Pro Speed Edition, which was already introduced for the Chinese market some time ago. For the global version, POCO brings a subtle tweak.

The phone measures 162.91 x 76.03 x 7.9 mm and weighs 181 grams. You’ll definitely be impressed by the sharply cut edges, which make the POCO look more elegant—and you also get a steadier grip.

The fingerprint reader is hidden in the power button. The manufacturer will offer it in black, blue, and—typical for POCO—in yellow.

A great AMOLED display and high performance

On the front you get a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 2,400 x 1,080 pixels resolution and a 120 Hz refresh rate. The sampling rate is 240 Hz. The selfie camera has a 16 MPx sensor.

In peak mode, brightness can reach up to 900 nits. There are also 10-bit colors and 100% DCI-P3 coverage. The display is protected by durable Corning Gorilla Glass 5 glass.

POCO has equipped the smartphone with a fairly powerful processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G. It’s an 8-core chip built on a 6-nanometer manufacturing process. The chipset is paired with 6 to 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128 GB or 256 GB of UFS 2.2 storage.

Good news: Android 13 is included along with Xiaomi’s latest UI layer, the MIUI 14, which it also brings to a wide range of older models.

You’ll also be impressed by the cameras

The rear module is tailored by POCO and includes three sensors. The main one offers up to 108 MPx and f/1.9 aperture, followed by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor with a 120-degree field of view and a 2-megapixel macro.

There are quality stereo speakers, Wi‑Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2, 5G, NFC, an audio jack, and dual SIM support. The battery has a solid capacity of 5,000 mAh. You can conveniently charge it at 67 W, and that adapter is included in the box.
