Xiaomi has launched the Redmi Note 10T 5G in India and further expanded its already comprehensive Redmi Note 10 series. The smartphone was launched on Tuesday afternoon during an online event. This is the first 5G smartphone from the Redmi sub-brand and fifth in the Note 10 series which includes Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro, Redmi Note 10 Pro Max and Redmi Note 10S. The 5G connectivity is the biggest highlight of the Redmi Note 10T 5G but, it also packs a 6.5-inch FHD+ display, 90Hz refresh rate and MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC.
Xiaomi had launched the Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro and Redmi Note 10 Pro Max in March but, all these phones only supported 4G network. The 5G support was reserved for the more premium Mi branded smartphones. The Note 10T 5G will help Xiaomi compete with the Realme 8 5G and Realme Narzo 30 5G.

The Redmi Note 10T 5G price in India has been set at Rs 13,999 for the 4GB RAM and 64 GB internal storage variant, and Rs 15,999 for the 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage variant.

The smartphone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset. The internal storage on the phone can be further expanded via a microSD card. The phone runs Android 11-based MIUI 12 custom skin and packs a 5,000mAh battery with 18W fast-charging support. Xiaomi is shipping a 22.5W fast charger inside the box though.
