Xiaomi launched the Mi 10 and Mi10 Pro in China last month. The handsets have now been launched globally. The handsets are quite similar when it comes to specifications. However, they differ in terms of battery and storage. Both of them feature a 90Hz refresh rate, 108MP camera, and more. Here is all you need to know about the two phones.

Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro Specifications
Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro feature a 6.67-inch (2340 × 1080 pixels) Full HD+ AMOLED with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. It supports a 90Hz refresh rate. The phones are powered by the Snapdragon 865 7nm Mobile Platform, paired with Adreno 650 GPU. They come in 8GB and 12GB RAM variants with 256GB or 512GB of internal UFS 3.0 storage. Both the smartphones have support for dual SIM.

On the optics front, the handsets sport a quad rear camera setup. The primary 108 lens is a Samsung sensor with an f/1.69 aperture that supports OIS. It is accompanied by a 12MP 1/2.6-inch 2PD sensor for 2x zoom and portrait.

There is an 8MP telephoto lens for 10x hybrid zoom, 50x digital zoom, and 5x optical zoom. It supports OIS as well. The fourth sensor is a 20MO ultra-wide-angle lens. The rear cameras support  8k at 30fps, 4k 60fps, and 960fps at 720p. The phones have a 20MP selfie shooter.

 The Mi 10 packs a 4780mAh battery, whereas the Mi 10 Pro comes equipped with a 4500mAh battery. They support 30W QC 4+ / PD3.0 wired and wireless fast charging and 10W wireless reverse charging. Both smartphones support 5G and have WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1.
Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro Price
The Xiaomi Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro went on sale in China on 14 February, with prices starting at 3,999 yuan (£442/US$573) and 4,999 yuan (£552/$716) respectively. This is a 1,000 yuan price hike over its predecessor, which has been explained by the addition of 5G connectivity and some hardware upgrades, including to the screen, the addition of a 108Mp camera, higher-capacity batteries and LPDDR5 RAM. Even so, the new Xiaomi flagships cost less than many competing Android phones, offering excellent value.
