Earlier: Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 10 series devices including Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro, and Redmi Note 10 Pro last month in India. Redmi Note 10 series devices bring tons of upgrades over their predecessors in multiple departments. Xiaomi also brought AMOLED displays to the Redmi Note line up with Redmi Note 10 series devices. Redmi Note 10 features an AMOLED display with a standard 60Hz refresh rate, while, the Pro and Pro Max variants have an AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Redmi India has replied to most of these consumers, but it is not clear how widespread the issue is. The company hasn’t made any official statement by the time of writing the post. We would advise our readers to check their units properly, in case they have purchased or are planning to purchase a Redmi Note 10 series device.
We did face occasional screen freezing issues when using the Redmi Note 10, and it was normal after sometime. Do you or anyone you know own a Redmi Note 10 series device? If yes, did you notice a similar issue with touch responsiveness or screen flickering on your unit? Do let us know in the comments below.
