Xiaomi has just launched a brand new notebook in India. The latest laptop is a new entry in the company’s existing Mi Notebook 14 lineup and features a 10th Gen Intel Core i5 processor along with an integrated 720p HD webcam.

The Mi Notebook 14 (IC) is the latest addition to the Chinese tech giant’s laptop offerings in the Indian market, with the most notable change being an integrated camera. For those unaware, the Mi Notebook 14 series that was launched back in 2020, featured minimal bezels and shipped with an external attachable webcam.

The new laptop starts from 43,999 INR (roughly 600 US Dollars) and is available via the company’s official website, or major e-retailers like Amazon and Flipkart.
