Redmi 10 2022 Review – Still Usable in 2025?

It’s 2025, and you might be wondering: Is the Redmi 10 2022 still a good option for everyday use? I’ve been using it recently, and here’s my honest take.

✅ What Still Works Well

Basic Performance: With the MediaTek Helio G88 and 4GB RAM, it’s decent for light tasks like browsing, WhatsApp, YouTube, and email.

Battery Life: The 5000mAh battery still holds up really well — a full day of use is no problem.

Display: The 6.5" FHD+ screen with 90Hz refresh rate is a surprising bonus in this price range, even today.

MIUI 14 (Global): Still receiving some updates, and many features feel modern enough for basic users.


❌ What Shows Its Age

Storage Speed: eMMC storage feels slow. App installs, updates, and loading times take noticeably longer.

Camera: The 50MP rear camera is passable in good light but struggles in low-light or motion-heavy shots.

Lag in Heavy Apps: Multitasking or running heavier apps like Instagram, TikTok, or games like eFootball can be sluggish.


Verdict:

If you only need a phone for essentials — calls, texts, light apps, and media — the Redmi 10 2022 is still usable in 2025. But if you're a power user or expect snappy performance and camera quality, it’s time to upgrade.
