Last year, Xiaomi surprised everyone with the launch of Mi 10S. The China-exclusive smartphone offers cherry-picked premium specs for a lower price tag. It was a cheaper alternative to the Mi 11 at the time of its release. A year after its debut, the phone has been now discontinued.
Earlier today, in a reply to a netizen on a Weibo post, Lei Jun, the CEO of Xiaomi, confirmed that the Mi 10S is sold out. ITHome also reports that the handset is listed ‘out of stock’ on Mi.com and JD (Jingdong).
This clearly suggests that the company has discontinued the Mi 10S in its home country, the only market where it was released. However, the device could be available in the offline market until stocks run out.
The Xiaomi Mi 10S is one of a kind smartphone. Unfortunately, the firm did not bring it to international markets.
The handset features a 6.67-inch FHD+ 90Hz curved AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC, LPDDR5 RAM, UFS 3.0 storage, liquid cooling technology, 108MP (OIS, wide) + 13MP (ultra-wide) + 2MP (macro) + 2MP (depth) quad-camera setup, 20MP selfie camera, dual stereo speakers tuned by Harman Kardon, 4,780mAh battery, 33W fast wired charging, 30W fast wireless charging, and 10W reverse wireless charging.
The phone debuted with MIUI 12 based on Android 11 for a starting price of ¥3,299 for the base 8GB + 128GB memory configuration. The device was updated to MIUI 12.5, MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition, and it currently runs MIUI 13 based on Android 12.
