The vanilla Redmi Note 10 is the cheapest model in the series. But unfortunately, Xiaomi has been hiking its price since the launch. Almost four months after its announcement, the device’s price has been increased fourth time today.

The Redmi Note 10 comes in two storage configurations in India – 4GB + 64GB and 6GB + 128GB. These two variants debuted at ₹11,999 and ₹13,999 respectively.

A month after the launch, the price of the two versions was hiked by ₹500. Hence, they had been selling for ₹12,499 and ₹14,499 until June.

Then, the two models got yet another price increase of ₹500 one by one. Since then till yesterday, the base and higher variants of the handset were being sold for ₹12,999 and ₹14,999 respectively.

With yet another price hike of ₹500 today, the Redmi Note 10 currently retails in India at ₹13,499 for the 4GB + 64GB variant and ₹15,499 for the 6GB + 128GB version. In other words, the top model of the vanilla Redmi Note 10 is now costlier than the base variant of the Redmi Note 10S.

The rise in the price of smartphones and smart TVs in India is due to the shortage of components. Although it’s understandable, it’s sad to see that the once a value for money smartphone has now become a tough choice among the competition.

Xiaomi will launch the Redmi Note 10 series of devices in India & other global markets on March 4. Until recently, the company had managed to keep the details hidden fairly safely. However, thanks to the leaks we have some information on the specs, features of the devices.

Besides, Xiaomi itself has come forward in the last week to confirm features that weren’t seen on the series before. Accordingly, the devices will have an AMOLED display and cameras up to 108MP resolution. Speaking of which, leaks so far say that Redmi Note 10 series will have three devices- 

• Redmi Note 10
• Redmi Note 10 Pro
• Redmi Note 10 Pro Max

Here, there is a possibility that Redmi Note 10 Pro Max could launch in Europe as the Redmi Note 10 Pro similar to what happened last year. With that out of the mind, let’s look at the expected specs, features, and price of the device.

Redmi Note 10 Series: Design

Xiaomi has kept the front of the Redmi Note 10 series pretty much the same as before. Only the base variant swaps from top-left (on Redmi Note 9 India) to a centered punch-hole.

However, the major change is in the panel itself. The entire series is getting an AMOLED this time. At the back, Xiaomi seems to have taken inspiration from Redmi K40 and Xiaomi Mi 11 for the quad-camera layout.

Also, a leaked video says that the base variant has a polycarbonate back panel but we need to wait for official info to confirm it. Other features include Corning Gorilla Glass protection, IP52 splash resistance, dual-Speaker grille(each on top & bottom), dedicated microSD slot, 3.5mm audio jack, Type-C charging port, IR blaster.
