Xiaomi is now set to launch its Redmi Note 10 series comprising of the base version Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro, Redmi Note 10 Pro Max. The specifications of the smartphones in the series and their sale data have already been made public. The Note 10 series is the successor to Xiaomi's Note 9 phones. Xiaomi had already made the matter regarding their Note10 series smartphones having an AMOLED screen public. Apart from this, what matters now is the smartphone worth buying or not, whether it's truly a new smartphone with new features or just a remake of their previous smartphone with some changes or you can say tradeoffs to fit in the budget.

Redmi Note 10 series Specification:

All the smartphones in the series will now sport what Xiaomi calls its new 'Evol Design' and a 120Hz Amoled Display. All the smartphones sport at least a 5000mAh battery with the Pro series having 20mAh more than the base variant with 33W fast charging support. The Redmi Note 10 series will also bring new camera features such as Night Mode 2.0, Vlog Mode, Magic Clone Mode, Long Exposure Mode, Video Pro Mode, Dual Video, Night Mode Selfie. Xiaomi claims these features will make the series the best options in the mid-premium segment.

Redmi Note 10 Specification:

The vanilla Redmi Note 10 specs include 48+8+2+2MP quad cameras, a Snapdragon 678 SoC with Adreno 612 as GPU. This time the smartphone does include stereo speakers as per the leaks. If we conclude all this then the smartphone is pretty much a copy of the last year's Note 9 with some changes in the speaker and display and a revamp of the SoC. We can't say if there is an improvement in the camera department as of now. The starting price of the Redmi Note 10 smartphone is Rs 11,999 for the 4GB + 64GB variant, while the 6GB + 128GB model will cost Rs 13,999. The color options include Aqua Green, Shadow Black, and Frost White. The first sale date is set for March 16th.

Redmi Note 10 Pro Specification:

The mid-liner among the series Redmi Note 10 Pro specs include 64+8+5+2MP quad cameras, a Snapdragon 732G SoC with Adreno 618 as GPU. The starting price of the Redmi Note 10 Pro smartphone is Rs15,999 for the 6GB + 64GB variant, while the 6GB + 128GB model will cost Rs 16,999. The highest variant cost Rs 18,999 for the top-end 8GB + 128GB configuration. The color options include Dark Night, Vintage Bronze, and Glacial Blue. The first sale date for the smartphone is set for March 17th.

Redmi Note 10 Pro Max Specification:

The top segment smartphone in the Redmi Note 10 series is the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max. The smartphone is almost the lookalike of the pro version of the same series with the main difference being the camera department in which the Max version has a 108MP camera instead of 64MP. The starting price of the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max smartphone is Rs 18,999 for the 6GB + 64GB variant, while the 6GB + 128GB model will cost Rs 19,999. The highest variant will cause a massive dent of Rs 21,999 for the top-end 8GB + 128GB configuration. The color options are the same as the Pro version. The first sale date for the smartphone is set for March 18th.

Putting all of this aside we can also argue that the Pro Max version is a lookalike of Xiaomi's Mi10i with the main difference being the Amoled screen and a better Macro lens. But we do have to make do with a slightly weaker SoC in the Pro Max version. Guess there is no free meal in the world. Now the users have to make a choice whether they want a high-end SoC or a better display as both the smartphones cost around the same and the user can buy either of them.
