In a surprise move, Xiaomi has reduced the price of its highly anticipated Redme 12, sending shock waves through Pakistan’s budget phone market.

The company has announced a Rs 2,000 reduction, after which it will be more accessible to a wider range of consumers amid Pakistan’s skyrocketing inflation.

Previously considered a compelling option for tech-savvy bargain hunters, the Redmi 12's price tag kept it just out of reach for many. Redmi 12 will now be available for Rs 39,999 after a Rs 2,000 price cut.
