Infinix Note 12 5G like the name implies is more or less the 5G variant of the Note 12. It features essentially the same specs as the vanilla model, but swaps out the MediaTek Helio G88 or Helio G96 with the 5G-enabled MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset. Infinix Note 12 5G features a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, 50MP triple rear camera, and a 5000 mAh Li-Po Battery.

On the back, you get exactly the same camera as the standard edition, though the placement is different with the cameras vertically aligned in this case.

Infinix Note 12 5G replaces the MediaTek Helio G88 (12nm) chipset and the MediaTek Helio G96 (12nm) found in the two 4G variants i.e. the Note 12 G88 and the Note 12 G96 respectively with a 5G-capable MediaTek MT6833P Dimensity 810 (6 nm) processor.
