• Xiaomi has silently launched the Redmi Note 10 Lite in India. The smartphone joins a long (and confusing) line-up of Redmi Note 10 smartphones which already includes the Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10S, Redmi Note 10 Pro, Redmi Note 10T 5G and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max. What’s baffling though, is that the Redmi Note 10 Lite has been introduced at exactly the same price as the Redmi Note 10. The latter was launched at Rs 12,499 but, is now selling at Rs 13,999 in the country for the 4GB RAM and 128GB storage variant. That is also the cost of the entry variant of Redmi Note 10 Lite.

• Surprisingly, the Redmi Note 10 Lite also comes with a better Qualcomm Snapdragon 720 SoC which makes it an obvious choice at that price. It is the same chipset which was used on the Redmi Note 9 Pro last year. In fact, the phone seems to be a rebadged version of the same device with a few changes. The Redmi Note 10 Lite comes in four colour options - Aurora Blue, Champagne Gold, Glacier White, and Interstellar Black.
