Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 10 series earlier this year in India. The company initially launched three new devices, namely the Note 10, Note 10 Pro and Note 10 Pro Max. The lineup was further expanded with the launch of the Note 10S and the Note 10T 5G. These five Redmi phones are priced between Rs 10,000 and Rs 20,000 in India. Amid the ongoing global chip shortage situation, it seems like Xiaomi is likely to halt the production of some of its devices. In Indonesia, Xiaomi has stopped the production of the Redmi Note 10. The company is asking users to consider buying other models under the series, which include the Redmi Note 10 Pro, Note 10S and Note 10 5G.

Xiaomi did not state the reason behind discontinuing the Note 10 in Indonesia. However, a CNBC report states that the move could have been taken due to the ongoing chip shortage. Several companies have been hit by the global chip shortage, which has been affected due to COVID-19 restrictions across different regions of the world. The situation is expected to get worse amid rising cases of the new Delta variant.
