Xiaomi confirmed the new Redmi phone as an upgrade to last year’s Redmi 9
Redmi 10 will offer up to 128GB of onboard storage

Redmi 10 specifications, images, and other major details have apparently been prematurely released by a blog post on Xiaomi's global Mi.com website. The new Redmi phone was, up until now, a part of the rumour mill. It will come as the successor to the Redmi 9 that the Chinese company launched in August last year. As a significant upgrade over its predecessor, the Redmi 10 is expected to come with a hole-punch display and quad rear cameras. The smartphone is also said to offer the latest MIUI experience.

As initially reported by XDA Developers, Xiaomi released a blog post announcing the launch of the Redmi 10 on Friday, August 13. The post was pulled shortly after it appeared on the site, though its cached version was still live at the time of filing this story.

Redmi 10 price, availability details

The blog post carrying the details about the Redmi 10 didn't include anything about its pricing and availability. However, it did confirm that the smartphone will be available in three different RAM + storage configurations — 4GB + 64GB, 4GB + 128GB, and 6GB + 128GB. The post also confirmed that the phone will be available in Carbon Gray, Pebble White, and Sea Blue colours along with matte, smooth, and glossy finish, respectively.
