Xiaomi Redmi 10C Hands-on

Late last month, Xiaomi released in the Philippines the budget-friendly Redmi 10C. For something that starts at around PHP 6K, the device offers a 6.71-inch screen, Snapdragon 680 chipset, 50MP dual-rear cameras, and a large 5,000mAh battery. If you’re interested in the device, read our first impressions here.

One of the first things I noticed about the Redmi 10C is that it’s large, which can be attributed to the large 6.71-inch HD+ screen that is protected by Gorilla Glass. This is not uncommon, though, in smartphones nowadays.

It uses a dewdrop design for the 5MP selfie camera. Placed above it is the earpiece. The bezels on the sides are thin but the chin is a bit thick.

Found on the left is the card tray for two nano-sized SIM cards and a dedicated microSD card.

On the right are the power/lock and volume buttons. They’re plastic, clicky but quiet. They’re placed just above the middle of the frame but still reachable.

The Redmi 10C is mostly made of plastic but feels well-made. The frame has this matte finish, while the back panel has this diagonal pattern that reminds us of carbon fiber. It looks good and doesn’t attract fingerprints that much.

The device is also a bit chunky at 8.3mm, but it actually feels thinner. You can still grip it with one hand, although navigating the UI would be more comfortable with two hands.
