A new Xiaomi smartphone with a model
number M2007J22C has obtained network access permission. Information on the
relevant page shows that the phone supports 5G. Combining the previous news
about Xiaomi’s upcoming models, it is likely that the handset is the Redmi Note
10.
In July this year, there were news that
the Redmi Note 10 appeared on the AI benchmark. That time, the mentioned
modes was packed with the Dimensity 820 chip. And in the test, it scored 79151,
ranking second in AI history. In addition, that time, we learned about some of
its key features. The alleged Redmi Note 10 sports a 6.57-inch LCD screen with
a resolution of 1080 x 2400. In terms of configuration, it provides 4+64GB,
6+128GB and 8+256GB storage combinations. There is also a rear-mounted
48-megapixel main camera. But apart from this, the camera module carries three
other sensors. The front-facing camera has a 16MP resolution. As for endurance,
the handset comes with a 4520mAh battery. This should be enough for a daily use
on a single charge. And the manufacturer has also preserved the 3.5mm headphone
jack and the infrared function.
Well, all these features are quite
attractive to see on a mid-range smartphone. But what about the ‘heart’ of the
phone? As said in the beginning of the article, the Redmi Note 10 should be
powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 820 chip. It is a mid-to-high-end processor
jointly built by Xiaomi and MediaTek. This SoC is based on a 7nm process and
consists of 4 x Cortex A76 @2.6GHz + 4 × Cortex A55 @2.0GHz cores. It also
integrates the Mali-G57 MC5 GPU and support 5G+5G dual card dual standby.
And when it comes to the pricing, we
should keep in mind that we are dealing with a Redmi Note series. Thus, it
should provide the best price-over-performance ratio. We mean it should be
positioning the 1,000-yuan market. Generally, for the past couple of years,
we’ve been used to two new Redmi Note generations every year. During the first
half of 2020, Redmi unveiled a plethora of handsets composing the Redmi Note 9
series. For the second half, we have been believing that the company is
preparing the biggest entry for the series in the form of Redmi Note 10. And
besides this, the Redmi Note 10 is so special because it will be the first
Redmi Note phone to come with 5G connectivity.
