The upcoming phones in the series will be called the Mi 10T, Mi 10T Pro and there's a rumour that a toned-down variant Mi 10T Lite will also be unveiled alongside the two premium phones.  Unsurprisingly, the specification and renders of the two key phones have been leaked on Twitter ahead of the launch. Some highlights include the Snapdragon 865 chipset and 144Hz refresh rate display.  The renders are in line with what we have seen in the past. Both the phones will have a punch-hole design for the front camera and also a side-mounted fingerprint sensor instead of an in-display.  A lot of these specifications have leaked previously as well and the new leak pretty much covers everything in terms of design and internals for the two upcoming Xiaomi phones. Xiaomi has found it difficult to keep a tight lid on its upcoming devices in the past as well, and it happened again. A known leakster na

The Xiaomi Redmi 9A has launched with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage in China as a new model of the Redmi 9A. Xiaomi launched the Redmi 9A on September 2, earlier this month starting at Rs 6,799. The phone is available in two variants-- 2GB+32GB and 3GB+32GB but there’s no word whether the company is planning to launch the new 6GB RAM variant in India anytime soon. The Redmi 9A with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage is priced at CNY 999 in China which roughly translates to around Rs 10,000 by direct conversion.

Xiaomi Redmi 9A starts at Rs 6,799 in India for the base variant with 2GB RAM and 32GB storage and Rs 7,499 for the 3GB RAM and 32GB storag
