Following the current COVID-19 situation and the cancellation of the MWC 2020 event in Barcelona, Xiaomi apprehended an online event on Feb 13 for the launch of Mi 10 and Mi Note 10 Lite. Conversely, due to the countrywide lockdown in most of the places, the further launch in many countries had been delayed.

It was until recently, that India started to sell the vanilla variant of Mi 10 in the market, and following the availability, Mi Nepal also teased the launch of Mi 10 series in Nepal and after the teasing, the long-awaited Mi 10 and Mi Note 10 Lite are finally official in Nepal.

However, there is a completely different pricing model for the Mi 10 series in Nepal as that is the same case in India as well. This is due to factors like direct import, higher GST, and depreciating Rupee value caused during the countrywide lockdown situation. On that note let’s dive into the specs details and find out what we have for the newest member in the market.
