Review Overview
The Xiaomi Mi 10 is a top-tier smartphone that offers a compelling blend of performance, design, and value. It's a device that proves Xiaomi can build phones that compete with the high-end models of Samsung and Apple, without necessarily matching their prices.
Overall Score: 3.0/5
Price: 4/5
The Mi 10 is priced significantly lower than other flagships, which makes it an attractive proposition. However, it is still a substantial investment and is pricier than previous Xiaomi models. So, while it offers good value for the features and specs it brings, it is not the most affordable option in the market.
Camera: 4.5/5
The Mi 10 sports a versatile 108MP quad-camera setup that produces excellent results in various lighting conditions. The photos are sharp, detailed, and vibrant, with good dynamic range. The night mode could use some improvements, but overall, it's a solid camera system that can compete with the best in the business.
Power: 4.5/5
Xiaomi Mi 10 is equipped with the powerful Snapdragon 865, ensuring smooth performance even with demanding tasks and games. It also comes with a generous 8GB or 12GB of RAM depending on the variant. This combination ensures that the phone runs smoothly, even when multitasking or running graphics-intensive games.
Battery: 4/5
The Mi 10 packs a large 4780mAh battery, which is more than enough to get you through a full day of heavy usage. It also supports 30W fast charging, which can charge the phone to 100% in just over an hour. However, compared to some competitors in the market that offer faster charging
