Earlier, Redmi officially teased the Redmi 12 smartphone with a new Moonstone Silver color option which is coming to India as well. This new stunning colorway offers unique and glorious color-changing finishes that change between Pink, Silver, and blue. Redmi launched both 5G and 4G variants in Indian markets which have very similar features with just processor difference.
