Xiaomi Mi 10 global launch delayed to a later date
While we thought that Xiaomi’s launch event for the Mi 10 will continue as it was planned for a day prior to MWC 2020, it appears that they will be cancelling it too. With MWC 2020 cancelled, I believe that they might have decided that it wasn’t exactly feasible to continue their launch and have delayed the launch to a later date.
The new date and location has yet to be set, although Xiaomi confirmed that they are arranging a launch event in Europe. The Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro has just been launched today in China with availability commencing this 18th February.
Xiaomi fans worldwide may have to wait a little longer for the next Xiaomi flagship, but if you are interested, here are the specifications:

Xiaomi outdid themselves this time around, with next-gen features like 5G, WiFi 6 and true stereo speakers on both the Mi 10 and Mi Note 10, although the Mi 10’s camera appears to be a little lacking even when compared to the Mi Note 10. The Mi 10 Pro is definitely very interesting though, although it does mark an unprecedented price range for the budget-oriented brand. Well, time to see how will it be priced globally, and more importantly, in Malaysia.
