Xiaomi is getting set to release a couple of smartphones in the coming weeks. The company has already announced that the Xiaomi Mi 11 series will arrive on December 28th. In addition, Xiaomi India announced on its official Twitter handle that the company’s first smartphone conference in 2021 will take place on January 5th. It will release the Xiaomi Mi 10i for India at this event. According to a recent report, this smartphone will come with Qualcomm Snapdragon 750 SoC, a 120Hz display, and a 108MP camera. This device is also expected to support up to 33W fast charging. Judging from the official posters, Xiaomi Mi 10i corresponds to the Redmi Note 9 Pro (Chinese version).
Xiaomi India started to preview the phone on Twitter, and also set up a page on its official website. In addition, the side of the device was also seen. It reveals the SIM card tray on the left and the curved back. These are consistent with the design of the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G. The Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G comes with a 6.67-inch IPS LCD screen, 120Hz refresh rate, Samsung 1/1.52-inch ISOCELL HM2 108MP main sensor, and a 4820 mAh battery.
