Redmi Note 10: Price and availability in the Philippines
Note-worthy features for a tempting price!
Just a few weeks after its global launch, the Redmi Note 10 has finally arrived in the Philippines. As ever, Xiaomi packs a lot of features into one device with a price tag that should tempt anyone looking for the best value for the money.
For 2021, Xiaomi made a leap and bundled an AMOLED display into the Redmi Note 10. Previous Redmi Note devices only have an LCD display, so this is a notable improvement indeed. To be exact, the display is pegged at 6.43 inches and has a punch hole in the center for the selfies.
One of the notable changes too is the switch to a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. The device has a Snapdragon 678 processor inside, providing decent performance for everyday tasks. The only thing about this processor is the lack of support for 5G, which could be a disadvantage for some individuals.
While the Redmi Note 10 lacks 5G, it still is a much capable device that ticks all the right boxes. The quad cameras here can capture photos with stunning details and true-to-life colors. For the spec onlookers, that quad cameras translate to 48MP wide-angle lens + 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens + 2MP macro lens + 2MP depth sensor. Xiaomi also sees it fit to add a time-lapse capability to the device this time around.
Other thoughtful and seamless redesigns and updates include the Arc side fingerprint sensor that goes well with its IP53-certified Gorilla Glass 3 unibody. There’s also a 33W fast-charging capability for topping up the 5,000 mAh battery. Plus, a dual stereo speaker also comes to the Redmi Note 10.
Meanwhile, features that everyone came to love on past Redmi Note devices are still here. That includes the IR sensor and the headphone jack. Yes, a headphone jack — an increasingly-rare feature in recent years.
Price and availability
The 4GB/64GB version of the Redmi Note 10 retails now for PhP 8,490 in the Philippines. Meanwhile, the 6GB/128GB version has a price of PhP 9,990. Both versions are available to purchase now on Lazada, authorized Mi Stores, and other offline channels.
Computex 2026
The new NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops are AI PCs on steroids
“Useful AI has arrived,” NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang proclaimed in his monumental keynote speech to kick off COMPUTEX 2026, essentially admitting to the state of AI prior to today. But don’t let the past mess with how you view the present. AI today, according to the graphics-turned-AI company, will now serve everyday users, rather than procuring abstract and intangible benefits. For us normal people, it all starts with the new RTX Spark.
Rarely does a new product claim to reinvent the entire industry. Confident in its own abilities, that’s just what the RTX Spark wants to do. But what is it exactly?
Think of it like Microsoft’s Copilot+ PCs but on AI-powered steroids. NVIDIA wants to bring the power of a supercomputer into the hands of regular consumers, just like how the personal computer (PC) brought gigantic computers to the comfort of everyone’s homes.
Co-engineered with Microsoft, RTX Spark will run autonomous AI agents the entire day. The agent is tied to you and your intent but will orchestrate all your devices under one roof.
Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. The new series will leverage a Blackwell RTX GPU and a 20-core Grace CPU from MediaTek. It can also support up to 128GB of unified memory, delivering several of the most powerful (and most expensive) PCs available to consumers today. With the capabilities comparable to an RTX 5070, the series can supposedly play modern games with ease.
Inside, it will come with CUDA, the trove of information that powers AI technology today. Finally, despite how slim NVIDIA promises the series will be, the RTX Spark should come with a battery that lasts the entire day.
The first NVIDIA RTX Spark laptops will launch later this fall with six premium laptops for various brands. This, along with the 30 models launching soon after, will include Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and MSI. No word yet on how much these will cost, though.
