Xiaomi will launch the Redmi Note 12 series in India today. The line-up will include three models: the vanilla Redmi Note 12, Redmi Note 12 Pro, and the Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus with whopping 200MP camera. The launch event will kick-off at 12pm. Xiaomi has been teasing these devices for a while now and it appears the models coming to India would be similar to those being sold in China already with the exception that the India variants of the Redmi Note 12, Note 12 Pro, and Note 12 Pro Plus won’t be subsidised by ad-based monetisation.
