judgment
The Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G may be more attractive to those looking for a phone that does everything very well. With a better camera, a brighter display, better sound, a bigger and faster-charging battery and a charger included in the package, the Note pretty much rules the mainstream usage categories. However, the Nothing Phone (1) will easily prevail if you are looking for a phone that stands out in the crowd and has a unique look and functionality. It’s still the most distinctive phone on the market thanks to its semi-transparent back and Glyph UI interface, which features LEDs that light up the back in a pattern whenever a notification comes through.
The phone (1) doesn’t come with a charger, but it does include wireless charging and a faster processor. If you want to blend in effectively, the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ 5G is the phone for you. If you want to stand out, Nothing Phone (1) is the best option.
