Yesterday, Xiaomi unveiled the Redmi Note 10 series for global markets. The lineup consists of five models, namely Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro, and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, Redmi Note 10S, and Redmi Note 10 5G. The last two phones were not announced for India. But now, according to new findings, they may come to the country after all.

The Redmi Note 10S and the Redmi Note 5G that went official yesterday feature a similar ‘Evol’ design like the rest of the lineup. The former even has the exact same specs as the vanilla Redmi Note 10 with a few key differences. On the other hand, the latter is different than other models in the series.

Xiaomi did not launch either of these phones in India. Instead, it released another model called Redmi Note 10 Pro, which is different from the Pro variant for other regions. That’s because the Pro variant for the rest of the world is known as Redmi Note 10 Pro Max in the country.

That said, the firm may bring those unreleased smartphones to India after all. Because they have been certified by BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards).

However, interestingly, the Redmi Note 10 5G (camelliain) with model number M2103K19PI has been certified under the POCO brand. Hence, it could become the first POCO 5G smartphone for India. Unfortunately, its marketing name is a mystery as of now.

Whereas, the Redmi Note 10S (rosemaryin) with model number M2101K7BI is certified under Xiaomi itself. But we cannot be sure if it will go official in India with its original name. There’s a high chance it may launch under a new name, given the company’s history.

Anyway, although POCO India is running a new campaign with its new mascot, Xiaomi India has just debuted new phones under its best-selling series yesterday. So we think the POCO model may launch first. It could be announced alongside another anticipated device – POCO X3 Pro.
