Update, March 19, 2020 (5:35AM ET): We’ve updated the Xiaomi Mi 10 price and availability guide with details about the India launch date of the phone. We’ve also added information about the wider global launch of the device. Read on for all the latest.
Original article, February 13 2020 (1:46AM ET): Xiaomi has officially taken the covers off the Mi 10 series, unveiling the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro. From a Snapdragon 865 processor and quad rear camera setup to 8K recording, big batteries and a 90Hz screen, there’s plenty to like about these phones.
When it comes to Xiaomi, however, pricing is one of the most important factors. So join us as we look at the Mi 10 series’ pricing and availability.
Mi 10 China details
The Xiaomi Mi 10 series first launched in China on February 13, and they’re already available to pre-order. The Mi 10 goes on sale from February 14, while the Mi 10 Pro hits shelves on February 18. You can check out Chinese pricing below.
- Xiaomi Mi 10 8GB/128GB – 3,999 Chinese yuan (~$573)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 8GB/256GB – 4,299 Chinese yuan (~$616)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 12GB/256GB – 4,699 Chinese yuan (~$673)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 8GB/256GB – 4,999 Chinese yuan (~$716)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 12GB/256GB – 5,499 Chinese yuan (~$787)
- Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 12GB/512GB – 5,999 Chinese yuan (~$859)
The base Mi 10 price is actually ~$120 to $140 more than the Xiaomi Mi 9’s launch price, and the company has outlined several reasons for this increase. Essentially, it comes down to the Snapdragon 865 chipset, screen technology, RAM, and other factors.
Mi 10 India pricing and availability
Xiaomi’s Mi series flagships haven’t traditionally been available in India for the most part, but the company is bringing them to the country this year.
The Mi 10 will launch in India on March 31 at 12:30PM IST (3AM ET). Xiaomi will livestream the event across all its social media handles. Pre-orders for the phone will begin the same day as the launch at 3PM IST (5:30AM ET).
In a previous tweet discussing the Mi 10’s India launch, global vice-president Manu Jain noted that all units would have to be imported due to the lack of suitable manufacturing facilities in the country, saying it would therefore see a “different” [more expensive probably – ed] price model.
There’s no word on pricing and availability then, but Jain’s statement about a different pricing model suggests a phone more in line with the OnePlus series price than the Redmi K20 Pro.
Mi 10 global details
Xiaomi has delayed its Mi 10 series global launch after MWC 2020 was cancelled. The launch was set to take place in Barcelona on February 23, but has now been shifted to March 27.
