While the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10S dazzles with standout battery life and solid execution while gaming. It isn’t the all-rounder that the Note 10 Pro is given its normal camera and second-rate show. It stays a strong 4G just choice for somebody on a limited financial plan.
What Nokia used to be in Bangladesh and most pieces of Europe during the 2000s. Xiaomi has set up that degree of predominance in India over the most recent 7 years. The vast majority of that achievement has been on the bedrock of its Redmi line of reasonable cell phones which have frequently given great and state of the art equipment particulars. And it’s an unrefined yet viable Mi UI that has been sponsored by promotions.
In the wake of dispatching the heavenly Redmi Note 10 series of telephones. It chose to dispatch one more one called the Redmi Note 10S which openings between the section level Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10 Pro.

Design & Build
It’s a significant standard look, in any case, it has this cool blue (sea blue) slope shading which additionally gets a matte completion that makes it good to hold in the palm. For more details, you can check out our full review of the Oppo F19.
It isn’t a very remarkable smear magnet too and it likewise gets IP53 sprinkle and residue opposition like most Xiaomi telephones. It consolidates even a 3.5mm earphone jack and an IR blaster which is a mark include that Xiaomi’s telephones give.
The back of the telephone houses the camera cluster which gives a touch of knock yet. In addition, gives a perfect taste that helps one to remember a vintage camera. This knock, however, additionally annoyingly guarantees that the telephone never lays level on a table. There are additionally sound system speakers which are boisterous however normal in lucidity. However, ought to be sufficient for anybody in a hurry.
Strangely, it is lighter than the Redmi Note 10 Pro at 178g, notwithstanding, it is marginally thicker at 8.3mm. It stays a beautiful simple telephone to hold by present-day norms, however considering the 6.43in screen size, it is unquestionably huge.
To a great extent, it is a well-planned telephone with an extraordinary shading that is not very disparate from its Redmi cousins from 2021. It likewise helps that the form nature of the telephone is spot on at the cost. For more details, you can check out our full review of the Oppo F19 Pro.
Screen
Xiaomi has been equipping its Redmi telephones with truly amazing presentations and the Redmi Note 10S is the same. Notwithstanding, it passes up the ease yielded by the 120Hz revive rate that its brethren accompanies. It doesn’t have 90Hz like the Note 10 5G as a trade-off.
It’s somewhat baffling considering the gaming certifications of the MediaTek chip yet that is to the side. It is a great screen for watching recordings on Netflix or understanding text. By and large, it nails it, however considering you can get a Redmi Note 10 Pro with a high revive rate screen, that is the place where things become somewhat irritating. Furthermore, the “star” model has the better board.
Like the other Redmi Note 10 series telephones, it additionally doesn’t get HDR10 support which debilitates its substance utilization certifications to some degree.
Yet, as far as looks, it is phenomenal — you’re generally seeing all screens and scarcely any bezel. However, there is a touch of it on the lip of the telephone. The opening punch camera is on the upper left and is fundamentally a celebrated dab so it additionally doesn’t disrupt everything.
Specs & Performance
Maybe the most inquisitive thing about the Redmi Note 10S is the reality it runs on the MediaTek Helio G95 processor which was there additionally in the Redmi Note 8 Pro. It is a 12nm chip with an octa-center engineering and a Mali G76 MC4 designs handling unit (GPU), combined with 6GB RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 capacity with help for microSD card memory extension.
Why this is an inquisitive spec is because Xiaomi has utilized Qualcomm Snapdragon chip in the majority of different models. MediaTek has made a significant serious deal about the gaming capability of this chip which is upheld with some acceptably quick memory and bountiful measures of DDR4x RAM.
Everyday execution was smooth with it taking care of performing various tasks also quite appropriately. Performing various tasks was a breeze with even 20 applications open simultaneously and even while I was continually exchanging between tabs on chrome.
Cameras
Xiaomi will let you know that it gets a quad-camera framework. However truly, this is to a greater degree a double camera telephone which is firmly normal and isn’t comparable to the Redmi Note 10 Pro. It formally has an essential 64Mp camera, an 8Mp super-wide sensor. And twin 2Mp large scale and profundity sensors. There is a 13Mp forward-looking camera that stows away in the opening punch of the screen.
The super 64Mp camera does well when you’re attempting to take a nearby photograph or even a shot in representation mode. However, the second you attempt to take wide scenes. The picture quality becomes normal as there is an extraordinary loss of detail. The pictures are marginally soaked which is a mark Xiaomi attribute.
Low light photography isn’t the most grounded suit of the 10S. Pictures, in any event. When utilizing the night mode, come out extremely grainy. And you wanted a truly consistent hand to get something usable considering there is no OIS (optical picture stabilization).
The low-goal full-scale camera can on occasion push out a usable shot. However, it will be totally silly when given helpless lighting. The super-wide focal point proves to be useful for scene shots yet once more. It shouldn’t be utilized in low-light circumstances. It is a touch of hit or miss and the low goal of 8Mp doesn’t resist getting a ton of detail.
The camera application likewise accompanies a variety of modes like a full 64Mp goal mode. Which again isn’t extremely convenient for the vast majority. The UI is somewhat mind-boggling as though you need to utilize something like a large scale or night mode it is concealed in an alternate menu.
Battery Life
In genuine testing, I figured out how to never completely deplete this telephone during the day. It would consistently be left with over 30% juice. It helped that it gets a comparable 5,000mAh battery that is found in the Redmi Note 10 Pro. However, since the showcase here is restricted to 60Hz, its battery life was immense.
My utilization included utilizing WhatsApp, playing a few games to test the telephone, zoom video calls, web perusing, taking a ton of pictures with its quad-camera cluster, and utilizing boatloads of Twitter and Instagram. I additionally utilized photograph altering programming like VSCO and Snapseed separated from Simple Note. Google docs and Gmail separated from settling on telephone decisions. For content utilization, I YouTubed a ton and watched shows on Netflix separated from paying attention to music using Apple Music.
This is a genuine one-day battery life telephone yet assuming your utilization is lighter than mine. You can check out our full review of How to Properly Charge a Phone Battery.
Charging the telephone wasn’t the speediest interaction even with a 33W quick charger. It would take over an hour for the telephone to arrive at 0-100 percent took over 60 minutes.
Price
The Redmi Note 10S has been dispatched in the UK is accessible using Amazon and Mi.com. In the US, the worldwide variation of the equivalent can be had using Amazon.com.
It joins a portion of different models in the Redmi Note 10 line of telephones like the Redmi Note 10 Pro. It begins at £159 for the 6/64GB variation and £229 or (informally) US$278 for the 6/128GB variation. In the US, the base level 64GB model isn’t accessible.
Verdict
This is the main Redmi Note telephone that is sufficiently acceptable. Now and again one necessary to scrutinize the justification behind its reality since other incredible Redmi Note 10 models can give all. That this telephone can in a more proficient bundle.
That being said it accompanies its arrangement of qualities. Its battery life is most certainly better than its other Redmi Note 10 cousins and its new blue tone is extremely appealing.
However, at a financial plan value, it pretty much gets it done. Spending somewhat more will improve screen and camera mix in a knockout bundle that too from the house Xiaomi.
