The Redmi Note 10 family is about to get a new member. The series which launched this year already has eight models in total, some of which are exclusive to select markets. Now, a new model is coming to India and it will launch as the Redmi Note 10 Lite.

Evidence of the device’s existence was found by Kacper Skrzypek (@kacskrz), and from one of the two images he shared, the phone has the model number 2109106A1I. The more interesting info is the second image which reveals that the Redmi Note 10 Lite has the codename “curtana”. Doesn’t ring a bell?

For those who don’t know, “curtana” is the codename of the Redmi Note 9 Pro (India) which is also the device sold in other markets as the Redmi Note 9S. What this means is that the Redmi Note 10 Lite is a rebadged Redmi Note 9 Pro (India)/Redmi Note 9S! Yes, Redmi is relaunching last year’s phone under a new name.

There are speculations that the Redmi Note 10 Lite may be slightly different from the Redmi Note 9 Pro (India)/Redmi Note 9S. It remains to be seen what this difference is and if it will result in a higher price tag.
