The Xiaomi Redmi 10C was recently unveiled in Kenya and is currently available in stores for Ksh 16,000. This is quite a reasonable price considering the specifications the phone comes with. One of these is the Snapdragon 680 processor which powers this phone. So far, this is the cheapest smartphone in Kenya powered by this processor. This is the same processor you will find on the OPPO A96 which is available for way more money.
The Redmi 10C is one of the affordable smartphones launched in Kenya this year. At this price, the phone has a good chance of dominating the market as we have not seen equally as good a smartphone from other manufacturers. Xiaomi clearly knew what they wanted and went for it.
The Xiaomi Redmi 10C takes over from the redmi 9C which was a very appealing smartphone to begin with. I am expecting the same success with the 10C considering the specs it comes with.
