Redmi Note 12S Repair – 108 MP camera and 90 Hz AMOLED in the mid-range
The Redmi Note 12S (2023) is Xiaomi's answer for everyone who refuses to compromise on the camera in the mid-range. With its 108 MP main camera it delivers detail sharpness you would not expect in this price class. The 90 Hz Super AMOLED display makes a noticeable difference during daily scrolling – smooth and bright, even in sunlight. Anyone who owns this device has good reason to repair it after a defect rather than replace it.
The most common reason for a repair is a cracked display. The AMOLED panel of the Redmi Note 12S quickly shows cracks or dark spots after a drop. Reparo replaces the display professionally – including correct calibration of the touchscreen. From EUR 139 the device is as good as new again, with a 6-month warranty on the new panel.
Redmi Note 12S vs. Redmi Note 12 4G – what is the difference?
The Redmi Note 12S differs from the Note 12 4G mainly through its stronger camera system: the 12S has a 108 MP main camera, the Note 12 4G only 50 MP. The display on the 12S is also of higher quality – with greater contrast and better brightness. If you have a Redmi Note 12S, you can recognise it by the prominent camera bump on the back and the slightly more pronounced shape of the camera island.
Charging port problems on the Redmi Note 12S
After heavy use the USB-C port of the Redmi Note 12S sometimes becomes wobbly: the charging cable no longer sits firmly, or the device only charges in certain positions. This is a common wear problem and no reason for a new device. Reparo replaces the charging port quickly – after that the device charges reliably again.
