Price last checked: 10 May 2025. Confirm current price before buying.
Redmi 12C price in Malaysia starts from RM335, putting it firmly in entry-level territory. Under the hood sits Mediatek's Helio G85 chipset paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, enough for everyday apps and a decent chunk of photos and files, especially with the microSDXC slot for expansion. The 6.71-inch IPS LCD panel runs at HD+ resolution rather than full HD, which is typical for this price bracket.
On the back, there's a 50 MP main camera with PDAF backed by a basic 0.08 MP depth sensor, while the front gets a 5 MP shooter for calls and selfies. Video tops out at 1080p30 on both ends. Battery life should hold up well thanks to the 5000 mAh cell, though charging is capped at 10W wired, so top-ups take a while.
It runs MIUI 13 and keeps things simple elsewhere: microUSB instead of USB-C, no NFC, and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. It comes in Black, Blue, Mint, and Violet.
