Snapdragon 4 Gen 1 handles daily tasks fine, and the 8GB RAM paired with 256GB storage means you won't be juggling storage space anytime soon. The 6.67-inch AMOLED panel runs at 120Hz with a peak brightness of 1200 nits, which makes scrolling smoother and outdoor visibility decent for a phone at this price point.
Redmi Note 12 5G price in Malaysia starts from RM999. The 48MP main camera is joined by an 8MP ultrawide and a 2MP macro lens, so you get some flexibility in framing shots even if this isn't a flagship camera system. A 5000mAh battery with 33W wired charging keeps things running through a full day and tops up quickly when you're in a rush.
It's IP53 rated for dust and splash resistance, which is a nice bit of insurance for everyday knocks. Add in NFC, an infrared blaster, and a 3.5mm jack with 24-bit/192kHz audio support, and you've got a phone that hasn't stripped out the extras some competitors drop at this price.
