Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite presentation

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 series was launched last November in a rather mysterious way, with the Mi Note series suddenly changing to the 10 after the 3 model seen years ago. With this move, the company wanted to catch up with the competition's numbering, so it could put it alongside the Samsung Galaxy Note 10, for example, as an alternative option. However, its pricing isn't exactly wallet-friendly, hence the birth of the Mi Note 10 Lite.

Xiaomi's domestic branch - not to be confused with the Lurdy reseller - provided us with the device, but as I only had it for 2 days, I was unable to do a full test. I'll show you pictures of its camera in an article tomorrow, but as it's not a new camera, you won't really see anything new.

The phone itself is beautiful, although Samsung's curved AMOLED display is no child of today, with many people finding similarities with competing phones of the past. But then, the Mi Note series has been like this since 2016, so Samsung is only 1 year ahead of it. Gorilla Glass 5 on the front back provides adequate protection against scratches and bumps, and the metal frame keeps the components sturdy.

The phone will be launched in Hungary soon, and will be available from official distributors, authentic webshops and, we hope, sooner or later from service providers. Suggested retail prices are listed on the price tags below:

• Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite 6/64GB - $149.990
• Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite 6/128 GB - 154.990 Ft
