The Xiaomi Mi 10 is supposed to be the company’s ultimate flagship for India and before it launches, here’s how it will be different for the Indian market.
Had the COVID-19 infection not brought India to a grinding halt, we could have been playing with the Xiaomi Mi 10 and gave you in-depth analysis of its various parameters, including its much-hyped 108-megapixel main camera. Better late than never, though, the Mi 10 is coming now on May 8 as the Indian government partially lifts the restrictions on sales of non-essential items in select areas. And before the launch happens, Xiaomi India gave India Today Tech an in-depth look at the Indian Mi 10.
We say “Indian Mi 10” because Xiaomi has modified bits on the Mi 10 here-and-there. The Mi 10 is said to be most advanced smartphone Xiaomi has brought to India (second the Mi MIX Alpha, which was a concept device), and hence, Xiaomi is pulling out all the obstacles. The Mi 10 will take Xiaomi’s game to the space that’s currently dominated by OnePlus, Samsung, Apple and Oppo. The exact price will be revealed on May 8, though.
The phone is mostly similar to the global variant and before we take a look at what’s new of India, here are a couple of the basics on the Mi 10.
-The Mi 10 is one of the few phones in the market to use the ultra-powerful Snapdragon 865 chip. This is currently the most powerful chip an Android phone can use and paired with the Snapdragon X55 5G modem, it is ready for the 5G future (although 5G is still a distant dream for India).
