Today, Xiaomi has added a new affordable smartphone to the Redmi lineup. The company introduced the budget smartphone Redmi 10A. The company’s latest smartphone is billed as a “desktop smartphone,”which means it’s a device for anyone looking for a low-cost, entry-level device. Redmi 10A was launched in China back in March.
The Redmi 10A comes with a MediaTek processor, a large battery said to last 2 days, and a single rear camera. Let’s take a closer look at the phone’s specs and pricing.

The Redmi 10A comes in two configurations, the 3GB + 32GB variant is $111 and the 4GB + 164GB variant is $124. Color options include blue, silver and black. The phone will go on sale starting April 26, 2022 on Amazon.

The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G25 octa-core processor clocked at up to 2GHz and a PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
