Xiaomi smartphone with 108MP camera could soon launch in India: Report

Earlier this month, Xiaomi took the wraps off the Mi Note 10 smartphone, which is the global version of the Mi CC9 Pro. The biggest highlight of the device is its 108-megapixel rear camera. Xiaomi first launched this device in China as the Mi CC9 Pro. Now, the company is soon expected to launch a phone in India that will feature a 108-megapixel camera.

Xiaomi is likely to launch the Mi Note 10 smartphone in India, as per 91Mobiles. Also, if Xiaomi launches this phone in India, then this will be the first non-Android One Mi series smartphone since 2017 in the country.

The Mi Note 10 will compete against the likes of the OnePlus 7T and the Realme X2 Pro. The Mi Note 10 comes with a starting price of €549, which around Rs 43,200 in India. Xiaomi might stick a little cheaper price tag when it will launch Mi Note 10 in India.
