- Xiaomi has launched Redmi 10 Prime and Redmi Earbuds 3 Pro in India.
- Cheap phones brought the first 50MP camera in the series.
- It also has a larger battery than the global Redmi 10 variant.
Xiaomi recently launched Redmi 10 globally, and now it has launched a slightly adjusted version of a cheap mobile phone in the form of Redmi 10 Prime.
The new Redmi has been launched in the Indian market with almost the same specifications as its global cousin. This means you will get a MediaTek Helio G88 processor. On the back, you can get 50MP + 8MP + 2MP + 2MP camera settings. This is a major upgrade to the 13MP shooting game on Redmi 9 Prime. The other three sensors in the lineup will provide you with ultra-wide-angle, macro, and depth shooting capabilities. There is also an 8MP selfie snapper in the front punch.
Speaking of the display, Redmi 10 Prime promises to provide a 90Hz adaptive refresh rate on a 6.5-inch FHD+ LCD display. Although, the screen will switch to 60Hz refresh rate for video streaming.
Compared with the global Redmi 10 variant, the 6,000mAh battery complements the high refresh rate. This is the only change that Redmi 10 Prime brings in India.
In other places, you can get 18W charging on board. The phone also supports 9W reverse charging, allowing you to charge Redmi earbuds, Redmi bracelets or Bluetooth speakers. A 22.5W charger is included in the box.
The phone also has a 3.5mm headphone jack, 4/6GB RAM options, a 64/128GB storage variant that can be expanded with a dedicated MicroSD slot, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor. The device runs MIUI 12.5 based on Android 11.
The 4GB/64GB model of Redmi 10 Prime in India is priced at 12,499 rupees (approximately US$171), and the 6GB/128GB model is priced at 14,499 rupees (approximately US$198).
It will be available on Amazon, Mi.com and Mi Home stores starting September 7.
Redmi Earbuds 3 Pro
In addition to Redmi 10 Prime, Xiaomi also launched Redmi Earbuds 3 Pro in India. The true wireless earbuds use Qualcomm chipsets and support the aptX Adaptive codec.
Each of their buds is equipped with a 43mAh battery and a charging case, which can provide another 600mAh of juice. Xiaomi said that this headset can be used independently for seven hours. With the charging case, you can play music for up to 30 hours.
