The Coronavirus outbreak continues to take a heavy toll on upcoming phone launches. After Vivo and Realme, Chinese phone maker Xiaomi has now decided to postpone the impending launch of its Mi 10 smartphone in India as well. The flagship device was set to be unveiled in India on 31st March but is now delayed indefinitely.
We, at #XiaomiIndia, are focusing our energy to support the nation in its fight against #COVID19.

Mi 10 will be Xiaomi’s first 5G smartphone to launch in India. It’s not being made here in India and will be imported directly from China due to manufacturing constraints in India. Xiaomi’s going to adopt slightly different pricing and sale model for Mi 10 5G, as per Manu Kumar Jain’s tweet last week.
