Redmi Note 12 Turbo Edition tipped to debut with series-first display feature

Redmi has already introduced the Note 12 Pro Speed Edition; now, the Xiaomi subsidiary is rumored to follow it up with a Turbo variant. This alleged upcoming addition to the mid-range smartphone line-up is already thought to come with specific advantages the vanilla 12, an upgrade to MIUI 14 out of the box and a chance to debut the Snapdragon 7 Gen 2 SoC included.

The "Note 12 Turbo" name has also turned up in a new leak that suggests Redmi has been keeping something in reserve for this Edition. According to Debayan Roy (or @Gadgetsdata on Twitter), it will launch with an in-display fingerprint reader.

That technology might seem ready to be all but standard in most new mid-range Android smartphones by now; however, it is absent across the entire Note 12 series to date (the high-powered Discovery Edition included), even though they all have OLED displays.

Therefore, should the Turbo Edition truly exist, it seems Redmi might intend to release it at a slightly higher price-point that most Note 12-series devices, even without gimmicks such as 210W charging.
