Summary
Based on the teardown the repairability of the Redmi 12 5G seems to be average. While some components are easily accessible and have pull tabs for removal there are also several components that require disassembly and the use of adhesive can make repairs more difficult. The mid frame also needs to be removed to access certain parts which can add to the complexity of repairs. Overall I would give the device a score of 6.0 out of 10 for repairability.
