The Redmi Note 10S slots below the Redmi Note 10 Pro and sports an identical design. But beyond design, it differs from the Redmi Note 10 Pro in more ways than one. For example, it’s powered by a MediaTek chip instead of a Snapdragon one and lacks a high refresh rate panel.

On the front phone packs a 6.43-inch AMOLED display with a peak brightness of 1100nits and DCI-P3 and 8-bit color support. Fueling the device form the inside is MediaTek’s Helio G95 SoC, paired with 6GB RAM and 64GB/128GB UFS 2.2 storage.

On the back, the Redmi Note 10S has a quad-camera setup comprised of a 64MP primary shooter, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and 2MP depth and macro sensors.

Elsewhere, the Redmi Note 10S comes with a 5,000mAh battery with 33W fast charging support, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth 5.0, a 3.5mm audio jack, Hi-Res Audio, IP53 rating, and runs Android 11 with MIUI 12.5.

The Redmi Note 10S will go on sale starting May 18 at a starting price of ₹14,999 for the 6GB/64GB model and ₹15,999 for the 6GB/128GB model. The phone will be available from Amazon.in, Mi.com, Mi Home stores, and select retail chains across India.
