Redmi Note 10 Pro Max smartphone was launched on 4th March 2021.

With the new Redmi Note 10 family, Xiaomi is offering more premium features than ever, but prices have also risen. The Redmi Note series has been massively popular so far in India, where everyone loves a good deal and buyers are very particular about every last feature and specification. If a smartphone has a big screen, high-capacity battery, fast processor, and lots of RAM and storage, but still manages to cost less than Rs. 15,000, chances are it will be successful. That's where the Redmi Note 10 comes in.

The phone comes with a 6.67-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 1080x2400 pixels and an aspect ratio of 20:9. Redmi Note 10 Pro Max is powered by an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G processor. It comes with 6GB of RAM. The Redmi Note 10 Pro Max runs Android 11 and is powered by a 5020mAh battery.

The rear camera setup has autofocus. It sports a 16-megapixel camera on the front for selfies with an f/2.45 aperture and a pixel size of 1.0-micron.

The Redmi Note 10 Pro Max runs MIUI 12 is based on Android 11 and packs 64GB of inbuilt storage that can be expanded via microSD card (up to 512GB) with a dedicated slot. The Redmi Note 10 Pro Max is a dual-SIM (GSM and GSM) smartphone that accepts Nano-SIM and Nano-SIM cards.

Redmi Note 10 Pro

 

Xiaomi has introduced a new “Evol” design language which freshens up the Redmi Note 10 series a bit. There's little scope for differentiation on smartphones, and the main bit of design flair we see is the camera module on the rear. The four lenses, all of different sizes, are arranged in a chunky but rounded panel that protrudes by about 1mm from the rear.
The rest of the rear panel is completely plain if you choose the Frost White or Shadow Black options, though the Aqua Green colour does have a slight gradient. Each of the three has a matching frame, which is flattened on the top and bottom. The rear panel curves at the sides to offer a comfortable grip. I liked the matte texture of the rear panel, and it doesn't get smudged very easily which means this phone still looks good after being used for a while.
Thanks to the 6.43-inch screen and its relatively narrow borders, the Redmi Note 10 is actually quite easy to hold and manage. At 8.3mm thick and 178.8g in weight, even one-handed use isn't much of a problem. The Redmi Note 10 is not only easier to handle than the Redmi Note 9, but also pretty convenient overall, considering its features and price.
One design touch I don't quite like is the silver ring around the front camera, which is embedded into the top-centre of the screen. It's highly reflective and can be distracting when gaming or watching video, which defeats the entire purpose of having an embedded camera. The fingerprint sensor is integrated into the power button on the side. It's quite small and shaped like a regular button rather than being slightly recessed. It seemed quick and accurate enough in use, even with such a small surface area.

Redmi Note 10 Pro specifications

6.67-inch 120Hz Super AMOLED display
Snapdragon 732G chipset
Up to 8GB RAM
Up to 128GB storage
64MP + 5MP + 8MP + 2MP quad rear cameras
16MP selfie camera
5,020mAh battery with 33W charging

Redmi Note 10 Pro specifications are similar to the Max model. It also employs a 120Hz 6.67-inch Super AMOLED display, Snapdragon 732G SoC, 16MP selfie camera, and 5,020mAh battery with 33W fast charging support. However, around the back, the phone is equipped with a 64MP Samsung ISOCELL GW3 primary sensor as opposed to a 108MP sensor on the Max model. The main camera is accompanied by a 5MP super macro sensor with 2x Zoom, an 8MP 118-degree wide-angle lens, and a 2MP depth sensor.
The Redmi Note 10 doesn't push any major new boundaries for a budget phone, which is a little disappointing considering how popular its predecessors have been. That said, prices are rising and taxes are steeper than before so it's hard for companies to pull off huge surprises these days while keeping costs low. This is still a very competent phone and offers good value for money in 2021.
It offers a striking new design, solid performance for everyday tasks, good battery life, and a competent enough main rear camera. Little touches such as the AMOLED display, stereo speakers and the IP53 rating are what set the Redmi Note 10 apart from other budget phones. The promise of clean, annoyance-free software is tantalising, but we have to rate this phone based on our actual experience with it at the time of review. As of now, that means the spam and ads cost it a few points, but if you're reading this after the rollout of MIUI 12.5, do take that into account.
