Xiaomi launched the Mi 10S in China as its most affordable Mi-branded flagship and the spec sheets are highly appealing. At a starting price of approximately Rs 40,000, the Mi 10S repackages last year’s Mi 10 5G with a newer Snapdragon 870 chip and a slightly lower price tag. There’s a 108-megapixel camera, 5G connectivity, and a 90Hz AMOLED display too. For smartphone enthusiasts, there’s a lot to like.

However, Xiaomi also has another phone with a Snapdragon 870 chipset in the form of the Redmi K40. This phone launched last month as Redmi’s official re-entry into the “flagship killer” category. It hasn’t got the top-grade cameras and the fancy wireless charging bits, but there’s everything a performance seeker needs. Rumours suggest this phone could make it to the global markets either as a Poco F3 or a Mi 11X. Also Read - Xiaomi’s Mi 11 Ultra price in India ti
