Xiaomi on Monday said its Mi 10 smartphone will launch in India on May 8. The company earlier this morning had resumed taking prepaid orders and delivery to "Green" and "Orange" zones during the Lockdown 3.0.

"Mi fans, Mi.com is now live! We are shipping all products to Green & Orange zones, while taking all the precautions suggested by the govt. and much more," said Xiaomi VP Manu Kumar Jain in a tweet this morning.

That said, Xiaomi had been advertising the Mi 10 launch for quite some time. The phone, however, got delayed following the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown in the country.

Mi 10's biggest highlights are the 108-megapixel camera and Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 processor. Xiaomi said its smartphone is also 5G ready.
