Xiaomi Redmi 10C

The Xiaomi Redmi 10C is an economical 4G smartphone with an extra-large display. The device is also part of the Android Enterprise program. What benefits that brings you read here.

Long-term update promise

Take a 6.71-inch screen, screw a tall 50MP camera behind it and spoon in a powerful Snapdragon 680 processor. Then it's extra clever when you consider that Xiaomi still found room somewhere for a fat 5000mAh battery. In a nutshell, these are the main aspects of the Redmi 10C. And yet, Xiaomi has another trump card up its sleeve. Namely, the device is Android Enterprise certified. With this, it is guaranteed to receive security updates until February 2025. This makes it fine for use in business environments where security is paramount. But even privately, it is kind of reassuring that the 10C will be maintained for that long.

Prime performance thanks to Snapdragon

The downside of inexpensive smartphones is often that they are not that powerful. This Redmi 10C seems to be the exception to the rule. And all because of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 680 processor used. Built on 6nm, this chipset runs at a comfortable 2.4GHz, allowing it to launch apps quickly and run games smoothly. The RAM memory comes out at 4GB in size and the storage comes in 64 and 128GB. You can also expand it to as much as 1TB by inserting a microSD card. The 10C also offers space for a second SIM card.

50MP camera especially good in daylight

Xiaomi, like many other manufacturers these days, applies a 50MP main camera. This one offers enough sharpness and detail although it quickly degrades in low light. You also can't expect everything for such a low starting price. Fortunately, a flash is present for these situations. Also present is a 2MP depth camera. Combined with that first one, you shoot nice portrait photos with background blur. In front we find a 5MP camera for selfies and for video calling. Is there anything negative about the 10C? Not really although we would have liked a little faster charging. 18W is not slow, but it is not really fast either.
