The Redmi Note 10S is an intermediary model between the Redmi Note 10 and the Redmi Note 10 Pro. It was first announced at the Redmi Note 10 series global launch event. Recently, this smartphone got a new ‘Starlight Purple’ color variant in Malaysia. This version of the handset is now being teased to launch in India.
When the Xiaomi India Twitter account was busy teasing the upcoming Smarter Living 2022 event, the Redmi India Twitter handle quietly dropped a teaser video titled ‘Paint The Town Purple’. This video could be for nothing but the Redmi Note 10S Starlight Purple.
The Redmi Note 10S Starlight Purple recently launched in Malaysia is priced at RM 899 ($212). The handset comes with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. If the Indian version also arrives in the same memory configuration, it should cost more than the current top model 6GB + 128GB, which retails for ₹15,999 ($216).
Apart from color, the new variant of the Redmi Note 10S is identical to the regular version in terms of specs of features. Hence, it has a 6.43-inch Super AMOLED display, a MediaTek Helio G95 chipset, a 64MP quad-camera setup, dual stereo speakers, IP53 rating, a 5,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support, and more.
With that being said, since Xiaomi is known for naming the colors of its products differently for India, there’s a chance that the Redmi Note 10S Starlight Purple could be called something else in the country.
