Xiaomi has finally launched the Redmi 10A in India. The device initially went official in China at the end of last month. Despite releasing one and a half years after the launch of the Redmi 9A, the latest entry-level smartphone from Xiaomi does not bring any major upgrades apart from a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor and a tweaked rear design.

Redmi 10A Specifications and Features

The Redmi 10A is almost identical to the Redmi 9A in terms of features. The only change in the spec sheet is the presence of a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor.

The device is powered by a MediaTek Helio G25 SoC. It sports a 6.53-inch display (LCD) with a resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels (HD+), 20:9 aspect ratio, and a dewdrop notch nesting a 5MP selfie camera. The screen has a 1500:1 contrast ratio and its peak brightness can reach up to 400 nits.

Connectivity options on the handset include dual-SIM, 4G, single-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and a MicroUSB port. There’s also a 3.5mm headphone jack, a dedicated MicroSD card slot, and a single speaker. Though it comes with a proximity sensor, an accelerometer, and a proximity sensor, it lacks a compass just like its predecessor.
