Redmi Note 10T Summary
Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 10T 5G seems to offer good hardware, on paper, for a starter 5G smartphone.
There’s a capable MediaTek Dimensity 700 processor that’s built on a 7nm process and has an integrated 5G modem. The smartphone runs MIUI 12, which is based on Android 11 and performs well in everyday use.
It delivers two-day battery life with regular use. It also looks quite classy with a matte-finish polycarbonate back panel and Gorilla Glass 3 protection for its display.
However, its main problem is that the cameras underperform when compared to the competition. Low-light performance is also not good.
The quality of selfies is average at best. Charging the large battery is quite slow at 18W. The competition offers much the same hardware at a lower price, and Xiaomi’s own 4G-only models boast better features.

10T 5G review:
Xiaomi's Redmi Note 10 lineup seemed quite
straightforward when it launched in March.
None of the Redmi Note 10 series smartphones
announced featured 5G, which made a bit of sense since news about 5G networks
going live was not conclusive.
Six months later, things haven't changed much.
We are still waiting for an operator to confirm when the first 5G network will
be operational.
However, we have started to see more budget 5G
smartphones, like Realme's Narzo 30 5G, the Narzo 30 Pro 5G (Review), and Poco's
M3 Pro 5G enter the market.
So now, Xiaomi has decided to launch its own
budget 5G smartphone.
While the new Redmi Note 10T is a bit late to
the game, a closer look at the specifications also reveals that there's little
that different about it, when compared to the existing competition.
Another important detail to note here is that
the introductory price of Rs 13,999 does not apply anymore, and the device is
now priced starting from Rs. 14,499.
After using it for a week, I discovered that the
Redmi Note 10T is a decent starter 5G smartphone, but as with every budget 5G
device we have seen so far, it falls short in some areas..
