Xiaomi Announces the Global Launch of its Mi 10 Series: Mi 10, Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 Lite 5G
Xiaomi today launched the latest devices in its Mi smartphone lineup – Mi 10, Mi 10 Pro, and Mi 10 Lite 5G – alongside five new ecosystem products.
For the first time, each device in Xiaomi’s new flagship line is 5G-ready out of the box. The new ecosystem products slated for Xiaomi’s global markets include Mi AIoT Router AX3600 , Mi AIoT Router AC2350, Mi TV 4S 65”, Mi Air Purifier 3H, and Mi True Wireless Earphones 2.
Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10
The Mi 10 Pro series of smartphones is packed with an impressive 108MP primary sensor, one of the biggest smartphone sensors currently on the market. In addition to shooting 108MP shots, users can document scenes in full perspective, thanks to Mi 10 Pro’s 20MP ultra wide-angle lens. The device includes two dedicated telephoto lenses that cover a wide range of focal lengths: users can snap portraits at 2x zoom, or faraway subjects up to 50x zoom with the OIS-stabilized ultra long-range zoom lens.
The main camera’s laser autofocus module, AI 2.0, Night mode 2.0, and dual-flash join forces to capture details during daytime photography and brighter, clearer photos at night. Mi 10 Pro has a DxOMark score of 124, ranking #1 globally at launch.
When it comes to videography, Mi 10 Pro goes all in, achieving a DxOMark video score of 104. The device offers the UHD 8K 30fps video recording feature to capture every moment in detail, while its unique video modes – including Portrait video, Color focus, ShootSteady, Vlog, and slow motion – allow users to easily create movie-grade content. Mi 10 Pro also offers a Pro mode with additional software options for those striving for a more professional video quality.
Both Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 sport a symmetrical dual speaker system on both the top and bottom. The setup involves two 1216 super-linear speakers and a 1.2cc/1.0cc-equivalent speaker chamber with up to 0.65mm/0.5mm speaker amplitude, respectively. The Mi 10 Pro is earning a DxOMark Audio score of 76, ranking #1 globally.
Both Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 sport a 3D curved front and back with smooth contoured edges and slim side bezels. To ensure durability, both devices are outfitted with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on both the front and back. Mi 10 Pro flaunts an anti-glare finish and frosted glass rear panel, while Mi 10 offers a glossy back. Moreover, the devices’ discrete in-display front camera minimizes bezels and allows for more display area.
Featuring a 6.67” curved AMOLED edge-to-edge DotDisplay with TrueColor technology, Mi 10 Pro offers color accuracy with a JNCD <0.55 and △E <1.1. This new generation display technology yields higher brightness (up to 1200nit maximum brightness) and better power efficiency over its predecessor, while a 90Hz SmoothSync display provides fast and fluid screen response.
Dual brightness sensors offer accurate brightness detection, while various brightness modes ensure eye comfort. In fact, both devices are TÜV Rheinland low blue-light certified, and verified by HDR10+.
The Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 feature the latest 5G-enabled flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 5G Mobile Platform. The 7nm chipset features a maximum clock speed of 2.84GHz with the new Kyro 585 based on the ARM Cortex-A77 architecture, and also touts improvements in power-efficiency. The chipset is accompanied by high-speed RAM and storage combinations – LPDDR5 and UFS3.0.
Moreover, the devices boast LiquidCool 2.0 – a cooling system consisting of a large vapor chamber, as well as multi-layer graphite and graphene stacks that dissipates heat generated during long-term use to ensure peak performance. This hardware setup earned Mi 10 Pro an AnTuTu benchmark score of 602,660.
The Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 not only offer 5G network connection, but also support 5G MultiLink for simultaneous connection to three networks (2.4G/5G Wi-Fi and mobile data) at once for quick connection switching. Additionally, both devices feature Wi-Fi 6 support.
Under the hood, Mi 10 Pro packs a 4500mAh battery that enables a triple fast charging experience with 50W wired charging, 30W wireless charging, and reverse wireless charging. Mi 10 sports a 4,780mAh battery and offers 30W wired and wireless charging, as well as reverse wireless charging.
The Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10’s vibration system delivers more realistic haptic feedback than before with 150 different vibration options.
The Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10 also offer multifunctional NFC and IR blaster for daily access of swift payment transactions and quick remote control of home appliances.
Mi 10 Pro is available in two colors, Alpine White and Solstice Grey, in 8GB+256GB at €999.
Meanwhile, the Mi 10 has two variants 8GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB, in Twilight Grey and Coral Green, starting at €799 and €899 respectively.
