Redmi 12 Malaysia: Get free wireless earbuds with the 256GB Redmi 12

In case you missed it, the bang-for-buck Redmi 12 is making its way to Malaysia. Xiaomi’s latest budget smartphone will be going for as low as RM499 on its launch day, but if you opt for the higher spec option, Xiaomi Malaysia will also throw in a pair of true wireless earbuds for free too.

There will be two models of the Redmi 12 coming to Malaysia, with the base model packing 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage for RM599 while the higher spec model features 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage for RM699. Xiaomi Malaysia had previously revealed that during its first online sale for the Redmi 12, the 128GB option will be RM100 off, meaning it’s priced at just RM499 on 15 July 2023.

However, Xiaomi is now also giving those who get the Redmi 12 with 256GB of storage a free pair of Redmi Buds 4 Lite worth RM139 on 15th July. Do note though that this promotion will only be available at selected retail outlets nationwide, which are:

  1. Kompleks Bukit Jambul, Pulang Pinang
  2. Plaza Low Yat, Kuala Lumpur
  3. Satu Gadget Menara PGRM, Kuala Lumpur
  4. Plaza Metro Kajang, Selangor
  5. DirectD Gadget Mega Store PJ, Selangor
  6. Rawang Walk, Selangor
  7. Kompleks Karamunsing, Sabah
  8. Kota Bahru Mall, Kelantan
  9. Kuantan Parade, Pahang
  10. Kipmart Tampou JB, Johor
  11. Plaza Hang Tuah, Melaka
  12. AEON Mall Kuching Central, Sarawak
  13. Ipoh Parade, Perak

As such, if you’re keen on the Redmi 12, you’ll have to decide between a RM100 discount for the 128GB model or a free pair of earbuds if you prefer the 256GB Redmi 12 instead.
