Xiaomi is gearing up to launch the new Redmi Note 12 series in China sometime next year. However, prior to any official announcement, a new leak has revealed a key feature regarding the upcoming smartphone.
The news arrives from a known tipster Digital Chat Station who shared the information on Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website). Looking at the online post, the tipster claims that the Redmi Note 12 will launch with the new MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chipset. For those unaware, the new SoC was just recently announced by the Taiwanese chipmaker. As per Digital Chat Station, the internal testing of the new Note 12 found that the device with this chip managed to offer performance similar to the Snapdragon 778G SoC, a popular mid range chipset from Qualcomm.
With this chip, the upcoming Note 12 reportedly achieved a score of over 520,000 on AnTuTu. Talking more about this chip, the Dimensity 1080 SoC is based on a 6nm process and features an upgraded octa core CPU configuration that consists of two Cortex A78 cores that are clocked at 2.6GHz, which is paired with an ARM Mali G68 GPU.
Notably, the tipster had also previously claimed that the Note 12 series will feature a 50 megapixel ultra wide angle lens camera sensor on the rear. Although, it is unclear which exact model will receive this sensor, but it is likely the higher end model. So we can expect the base Note 12 model to feature an 8 megapixe ultra wide angle sensor that is paired with a 2 megapixel macro sensor.
