UPDATE
After my redmi9t shut down (deadboot) yesterday, I decided to drain the battery 🔋 by pressing down the power button and using a rubber band to hold it in place. I left it like that for several hours. I could tell the battery was really draining cuz the phone was mildly warm as it would when in use for an extended period.
I woke up at 2:30am, removed the band I used to hold down the power button and tried to power up the device, lo and behold the phone powered up and started running the update.
My redmi9t is now up and running.

Your village people have had mercy

Virusvetty:
he asked WHY. As in why Chinese version since there's global version already

Especially considering the fact that a Mediatek chipset is powering that device

Cyril009:
Xiaomi phones hierarchy is confusing I thought the Redmi note 11,11 pro,11 pro + 5g were the flagship devices
Just found out it was the The numbered 11,11T,12
Followed by the Mi series still confused sef can someone explain this to me

Was there anytime in Xiaomi's history that the Redmi Notes were flagships?

That is why when most of you are comparing Xiaomi with iphones and Samsung's you will be comparing Redmi Notes.

The current flagship phone for Xiaomi barring the release of Xiaomi 13 Ultra is the Xiaomi 13 Pro and the compact Xiaomi 13.

chatom143:
I got this yesterday, Redmi Note 12 Pro + 5G, 256GB/12GB Chinese version, and I'm still trying to figure it out. For someone who hasn't used an Android phone since 2020, it feels strange, but let me see if I can enjoy it. If otherwise, I will discard it and face my iPhone in peace.

Why did you get the Chinese Version?

blaquemyc:
Good evenin bosses in the house. I tried to manually update my redmi9t. After downloading the zip file, i chose manual update, chose the package - the package was successfully decrypted and i was prompted to press '' reboot and update''. The phone shut down and is not rebooting again.

Most likely deadboot

kinglee007:
Really? Okay what about the inability to see the proximity settings option in my phone?

There is no such settings.

kinglee007:
yes it does

Also, I have been watching some videos online as to how to fix it but i noticed the option is not in my "incoming call" settings as shown in the videos i've been watching

Your tempered glass may just be hindering the proximity sensor from working

kinglee007:
Guys please I need help. Whenever I make or receive a call with my Redmi Note 9, the screen doesn't go off. It stays on and by that way makes me engage with other functions on the phone with my ear. Please what can I do about it? Does it mean my proximity sensor isn't working or is there a settings I haven't activated yet? Please I need quick response

Do you have a tempered glass on?

nani667:
The black Virtual card is the one I should create right ❓

AliExpress just do the Pink first.

But you can do the Black.

*Chewing noises*

omasbobo:
I swear guy, even Redmi 12c with outdated type b port is sold for 99k! Guy na flagship phones be the best value for money, close eye buy google pixel or s23 line up make mind rest.

Please order with black market rates on AE and tell us how much you will spend in total.

Stop speaking half truths

eteebanky1:
Man, note 12 is not cheaper than it's predecessor

Note 11 is even cheaper than that but vendors inflate the price

Example is redmi 10c......con see how they inflate that average phone

You are being economical with the truth. If you know what people go through to get forex to make orders you won't understand.

leksymaxy:
Please how can i enable the automatic voice call record on my redmi note 10 Pro.

You can't. You have asked this question before

Gmajor:
I'm currently using Redmi 7.
Seriously contemplating upgrading to Redmi 12

Redmi 12 or Redmi Note 12?

teacherbim:
Why is it always difficult to get pouch for redmi?

It is still early. It is a new device. Just hope Jboixxx stocks the cases.

teacherbim:
I got mine yesterday after using the note 7 for good 4years .
I'm in love with redmi

Congratulations

Ibks100:
Hello everyone.

Please I need help, this is what my Redmi 7 displays anytime I switch it on.

There is nothing you can do apart from Erase your data

Teepercuss:
Thanks for this. I actually meant e-commerce sites where I can purchase it. I'm not an Aliexpress person.

You can contact people like Macbeyland and Noobody if they can help you source for the 5G Variant of Note 12

Teepercuss:
I can't find it yet. You can help me with links to where I can find it

What kind of links do you need?

https://m.gsmarena.com/redmi_note_12_series_arrives_in_europe_here_are_the_prices-news-57989.php

Epositive:
Redmi 11 pro

Redmi 11 Pro abi Redmi Note 11 Pro

Teepercuss:
I'm faced between choosing the Indian version of the Redmi Note 12 (5g) which sports and hybrid slot and a 4-in-1 SD processor and the Redmi Note 12 (4g) dual sim and dedicated SD card slot with the SD 685. I checked the benchmark score for both processors but I still want to know what we feel.

I believe there is a Global Version for Redmi Note 12 5G. It was released in Europe last week.

So why not go for that?

Mayor21:
Just redmi note 12 4/128

Like I said go to the thread store lots of sellers have it in stock.

Mayor21:
Boss.... Do you know where i can order Redmi note 12 and the price too

Which of the note 12 because the Note 12 4G is littered on the Xiaomi Thread Store with its prices stated by various sellers

SpiritFree:
Where to get xiaomi 13 pro? Anyone?

Princekiah

UchihaB:
Kinda underwhelmed with the launch. Was looking forward to the 12 pro 5g which we apparently won't be getting. The pro plus is the only 5g enabled device we'd be getting and I'm not interested in it.

The grey market is there if you really need the Pro version.

Broskyjames:
First of kudos. The video was insightful.

But hear me out, I do think Smartphone designs have peaked or "plateaued" over the past few years, Take the flaghips for example, OEM have very little to tweak as per innovations, and it's basically the cameras they are on about and maybe slightly faster SOC, each year, as 120Hz LTPO display, Faster Charge, etc have become standard, Iphone had to even introduce the "Dynamic Island" which isn't much of a Deal breaker btw to make things interesting.

My point being, it's the "Mid range" devices that are suffering the most, cuz I don't think OEM can tweak the specs more than they currently are and still keep the "prices" mid range. This is not only particular to Xiaomi, as Samsung Mid range for the past few years now, have been basically similar with little differences, A12,A13, and A14 are basically the same. The Exynos chip on the A14 might be faster than that of the A13, but in real life figures, they might perform about just the same and handle similar task albeit with the A14 costing more.

You might also throw in argument that other regions get better Xiaomi mid range with slightly better specs, but don't forget that those countries aren't the "poverty HQ of the world" with people living under 2$ a day, I am sure if you compare the "Mid Range" prices from other regions they will be well above what the one's released for this region, are selling for, i might be wrong tho.

Speaking as someone who has observed the phone market in Nigeria for the past 3 years, i don't think anyone is buying the Note version series for "wow performances", as for the Pro versions, they can't tweak anymore for it still remain at price point and they can't just discontinue the "Note Pro" line, and that's why the Note 10 pro is probably still in production and available to at least give one a better choice around that price point, I don't see them doing anything dramatically different with that line in the immediate future.

As for the Redmi note 12, it is an "Upgrade" on the Redmi note 11, 6.67 inch screen as compared to the Redmi note 11's 6.4 inch screen, 120Hz refresh rate as compared to the 90Hz refresh rate of the Redmi note 11. MIUI 14 and A13 out of the box, so is guaranteed at least 2 major OS update whilst the Note 11 will come full cycle with it's OS upgrade when it gets A13 and the final kicker is that is at less price currently as opposed to the Redmi Note 11. In a direct comparison with the Samsung's A14, it has an AMOLED screen as compared to A14's PLS, faster charge, 120Hz refresh rate etc, and still costing less.

That's my 2 cent.

Spot on.

Nigeria prices are actually lower compared to Europe but definitely not at the level of India.

PraiseGod4u:
Thanks boss.. is it with frame or no frame?
Cos they are different prices

With frame preferably

KunlexyInc1:
Thanks so much for the mention boss man
Poco F4 sold out already. I'm having the PocoM5s left

M5s won't serve the buyer.

GrahamGeorge:
Did the battery swell?
My back glass cover is coming off the frame so I'm guessing the battery is swollen.
Got my phone in April 2021

Change your battery ASAP.

Hope you didn't use an inferior cable or a bad cable to charge your device?

tonyson010:
I would like to get the F4.

Ask Macbeyland, aezenkwu or KunlexyInc1

tonyson010:
please Sir, Do you have an idea where I can get new Poco F3 ?

my RN 8 just developed issue. the gyroscope and compass are not working. Don't know where to get it resolved self, don't see myself walking into computer village Ikeja without knowing anyone there(having lasted for 3yrs, it has tried).

Poco F3 will be hard to get. Poco F4 maybe easier to see.

Ikanium:
Good morning all
Please I'm wondering why the Redmi Note 12 is way cheaper than i expected. Am i missing something here!

It will get expensive with time. This is the honeymoon period.
