For under Php 10k, you are getting quite a lot with the Redmi Note 10, with the standout feature being its 6.43-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display, making it currently the only sub-Php 10k phone with an AMOLED panel. AMOLED panels are better than IPS as the former delivers more vibrant colors, deeper blacks, and  better contrast ratios.
Aside from that gorgeous display upgrade, you get a Snapdragon 678 processor, which is a higher-clocked version of the Snapdragon 675 that came out in 2018. You also get stereo speakers, along with a beefy 5000mAh battery with fast 33w wired charging–with the required charger in the box.
For the cameras, you get roughly the same setup as its predecessor: 13-megapixel selfie snapper and a quad-rear camera setup consisting of a 48-megapixel main camera (this time using an IMX582 sensor), 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, and a pair of 2-megapixel cameras. For software, you are getting Android 11 out of the box, along with MIUI 12.
