The cheapest Xiaomi is back: this is the new Redmi 10C with 50 MP and Snapdragon

The cheapest Xiaomi of 2022 is already here. The company has just launched the Xiaomi Redmi 10C , one of the cheapest devices in its catalog. It has launched it to replace the current Redmi 9C, a quite popular device. The good news is that Xiaomi has opted for Qualcomm and seems to have raised the quality of this phone in terms of features . If you need a cheap and simple mobile, this may be one of the best options of 2022.

New design with a very strange touch

The design of these simple mobiles does not usually boast of anything, but in this case there are nuances to highlight. The new Redmi 10C has a very strange rear. Its camera module is housed in a large bezel that also houses the fingerprint sensor .

It is a unique design that had not been seen so far in Xiaomi or any other brand. The good news is that it remains focused despite giving another impression due to the visual effect of the camera module.

The rest of the design is very simple, as it offers a plastic back , a front notch and slightly optimized bezels. The lower one is much larger than we would like, although it is normal for devices in this price range.

Official features is from the Xiaomi Redmi 10C

  • 6.71-inch FullHD+ screen
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor
  • 4 GB of RAM
  • 64 or 128 GB of internal storage
  • 50+2 MP rear camera
  • 5 MP front camera
  • plastic body
  • 3.5 mm jack, USB C and fingerprint sensor
  • 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth…
  • 5,000mAh battery
  • Android 11

The most interesting part of this new device is its processor. Xiaomi has left MediaTek aside and has opted for a Snapdragon 680 , a new generation chip that seems to be a level above, in performance, than previous years.

The 50 MP camera is also surprising and the fact of opting for a screen of almost 7 inches is something quite interesting. Of course, all this increase in features compared to previous years could also be accompanied by an increase in the general price of the device.

Xiaomi Redmi 10C Price

The current Redmi 9C is closer to 100 euros/dollars than 200, something that the Redmi 10C might not meet. The terminal has been officially presented in Nigeria, an emerging country where we do not have a clear reference in prices. These are the exchange figures that we can tell you right now:

  • Xiaomi Redmi 10C 4+64 GB – 171 euros – 187 dollars
  • Xiaomi Redmi 10C 4+128 GB – 191 euros – 209 dollars

Now it’s time to wait until the rest of the countries announce the device and its prices. It is very likely that this Redmi 10C is not as cheap as other counterpart models from previous years, although it could be one of the best cheap Xiaomi of 2022 .
