If a new report is to be believed, the Galaxy Note 10 Lite may end up finding quite a lot of buyers in India. According to 91Mobiles, the Galaxy Note 10 Lite will be priced at Rs 35,990 for the 6GB+128GB configuration and Rs 39,990 for the 8GB+128GB configuration. Considering the Galaxy Note 9 is still priced north of Rs 60,000, the Galaxy Note 10 Lite would be a solid deal as it shares many of its specs with the Note 9 while also being better in many areas.
The Galaxy Note 10 Lite is powered by the Note 9's Exynos 9810 SoC and has the same Bluetooth-enabled S Pen, but it trumps the 2018 flagship with features like a 4,500 mAh battery with 25W super fast charging, an ultra-wide camera on the back, a 32MP front-facing camera, and newer software out of the box (Android 10 with One UI 2.0). The Galaxy Note 10 Lite also has a larger screen (6.7 inches) with smaller bezels, although it does have a punch hole that not everyone is fond of.
The Galaxy Note 9 is also better in some other areas, like its IP68 water resistance and the dual aperture primary rear camera, but we don't think those are enough to justify paying nearly twice as much as what the Galaxy Note 10 Lite will cost. Of course, that's provided the leaked pricing will turn out to be accurate. The European price tag for the Note 10 Lite is 599 euros, which translates to roughly Rs 48,000, so it remains to be seen if Samsung will actually be able to sell the device in India at the rumored pricing.
The Galaxy Note 10 Lite's release date for India is currently unknown, but with Samsung teasing both the Note 10 Lite and S10 Lite on its official website, it shouldn't be long before the two handsets hit retail stores.
