Finally! The latest Xiaomi flagship phones are official in the Philippines, more than two months after they were globally launched.

Available in Twilight Grey and Coral Green, the Xiaomi Mi 10 is now being sold at Mi Authorized Stores and will be offered on Lazada starting June 18. The Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro in Alpine White and Solstice Grey is available at Mi Authorized Stores, too, but there’s no word yet on when or if it will be offered online.

Check out the prices of the 5G-ready smartphones for the Philippine market:

• Xiaomi Mi 10
  • 8GB/128GB: P34,590 (around $688)
  • 8GB/256GB: 36,990 ($736)
• Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro
  • 8GB/256GB: P45,990 ($915)

The two handsets — both powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chip — are two of the world’s 10 best-performing premium phones in Antutu for May 2020, with the Pro model taking the top spot.

Both boast rear quad-camera systems headlined by a 108-megapixel sensor. The setup on the back of the Mi 10 Pro has received a high rating from image-quality benchmark tool DxOMark — one that’s currently tied with the OPPO Find X2 Pro and is behind only by at least a point from No. 1 Huawei P40 Pro and No. 2 Honor 30 Pro Plus. Its video score of 104, on the other hand, makes it the best tool for videography so far.

Xiaomi‘s Mi 10 series phones also get UFS 3.0 storage; LPDDR5 RAM; a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate; and a 20-megapixel selfie camera. We just don’t know if their 5G function is compatible with our local networks. The Find X2 Pro, for example, can’t access 5G here.

On a related note, the company has announced that those who’ll buy the said devices from Xiaomi Philippines’ official sales channels and activated locally will get 24 months of warranty. Plus, there’s a one-time free repair service at local Authorized Service Centers should the screen be damaged within the warranty period, starting from the activation date.
