Since Mi 5 launch way back in 2016, the Chinese smartphone maker hasn’t brought a single flagship device to the country. The company focussed only on the budget lineup with its Redmi lineup.

Gizchina News of the week
For those who’re unaware, the official launch event was previously pushed back due to the current coronavirus outbreak. Since the Indian government has now allowed e-commerce websites to deliver non-essential products, various companies are planning to reveal their new offering to the masses.
Talking about the availability, the Mi 10 lineup will go on sale right after the official launch event. The device will be up for grabs on Amazon India since the microsite for the same is now live. In terms of pricing, we’re expecting an aggressive price tag to compete with the likes of OnePlus and Samsung.
