After weeks of leaks and rumours, Redmi has finally launched the Note 10 series of phones in India. The series brings with itself three new phones — the Redmi Note 10, the Note 10 Pro, and the Note 10 Pro Max. Of the three, the Pro Max is the most powerful device on the list. Not only it offers a good chipset to power games and resource-intensive applications, but it also comes with a fast 120Hz refresh rate display and a headline-grabbing 108-megapixel-lens-based camera set-up.
Starting at Rs 18,999 for the base 6GB+64GB variant and going up to Rs 21,999 for the top-end variant, the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max appears to be a very impressive device.

Case in point, the Narzo 30 Pro is arguably the biggest competitor of the Redmi Note Pro Max. Here's how the two compare in terms of specs, price and features.
