In addition to Samsung, its new budget smartphone was also presented today, August 18, by Xiaomi.

What kind of device

We are talking about Redmi 10. It got a design in the style of Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra and Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G (aka POCO X3 GT), a good set of features and a nice price tag. 

So, the Redmi 10 has been equipped with a 6.5-inch FHD+ resolution display, an adaptive refresh rate from 45 to 90Hz and an 8 MP front-facing camera hole. The main one, on the other hand, got 50 MP + 8 MP (wide) + 2 MP (macro) + 2 MP (depth sensor) sensors. 

The new octa-core MediaTek Helio G88 processor is responsible for the operation of the device. The chip has two performance Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 2.0 GHz, six power-efficient Cortex-A55 cores and a Mali-G52 MC2 graphics accelerator. The smartphone comes with 4/6GB of RAM and 64/128GB of storage (expandable with a memory card). The novelty also comes with stereo speakers, 5000mAh battery with 18W wired charging and 9W reverse charging, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS (GPS, A-GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BDS), USB Type-C port, headphone jack and side scanner. There is no NFC in the novelty, though perhaps its availability will depend on regions, as it was with Redmi 9.

  • Redmi 10 4/64GB - $179
