Xiaomi has launched the Mi 10 series, its tenth-anniversary flagship for the global market. The series is comprised of the Mi 10 and the Mi 10 Pro. The company says the series has been highly successful since they were launched in China last month. The major highlight of the device is the camera and the presentation focused a great deal on the camera configuration on both models. Xiaomi equally announced a third model- a more affordable Mi 10 Lite 5G powered by a Snapdragon 765G chipset.
Some of the amazing features that the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro cameras boast of includes 8 video shooting which delivers better quality. The Mi 10 series equally offers impressive portrait shots, a ShootSteady mode to aid stability of video shoot. There is also a Pro mode and wider capture which corrects distortion.
Xiaomi says the major difference between the Mi 10 Pro and Mi 10’s cameras is that the Mi 10 Pro features high-end optical and digital zoom capabilities. The zoom ranges from 10x hybrid zoom to 50x digital zoom. One other feature which Xiaomi unveiled on the Mi 10 series is the hardware flicker sensor. The sensor will make capturing a picture or video from a TV easier and clear. It is difficult to do this presently without some form of distortions because the shutter speed of the camera and refraction rate of the TV doesn’t match. The hardware flicker sensor detects the refraction rate and automatically adjusts the shutter speed in order to deliver a clear shot. 
The Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro designs are also an interesting aspect of the device. Apart from the camera sensors that differ, both the Mi 10 and Pro model have an identical design. This includes a four curved-edge back panel as well as a punch-hole camera located at the top left corner. 
Both models pack a 6.67-inch curved AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch sampling rate. The Pro model features a JNCD (Just Noticeable Color Difference) of less than 0.55. The peak brightness on both the panels reach 1200 nits with a contrast of 5,000,000:1. The models are equipped with dual front and rear light sensors to improve the automatic brightness adjustment on both the devices in order to ensure that the phone’s brightness is controlled well offering a pleasant viewing experience, indoors as well as outdoors.
As you already know, the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro are both powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 chipset paired with up to 12GB RAM. You can scoop more details about the memory versions and others from our China launch article from here.
