The Mi Note 10 was launched as a premium mid-ranger back in 2019. Having already received two Android version upgrades in the form of Android 10 and 11, it’s obvious that the device won’t be getting a taste of Android 12. And that’s exactly what’s come about with the MIUI 13 update released for the phone today in China — it’s based on Android 11.

Still, the update comes with a slew of changes in the form of new widgets, improved system font, new super wallpapers, and numerous optimizations, so the missing Android upgrade shouldn’t be too much of a bother.

The complete changelog for the update has been given below (via Xiaomiui).

Highlights

• New: Privacy camera for face recognition and protective watermarks for images
• New: Introducing comprehensive anti-fraud protection mechanisms
• New: All-new Mi Sans system font with better readability
• New: “Crystallization” super wallpapers
• New: A new widget ecosystem with app support and personalization options
• New: New features for performing tasks seamlessly on multiple connected devices
• Optimization: Improved overall stability

Widgets

• New: A new widget ecosystem offers lots of items that can make your Home screen more informative
• New: New gorgeous widgets for system and third party apps
• New: Lots of customizable widgets, including different clocks, signatures, and sticker

More features and improvements

• New: Apps can be opened as floating windows directly from the sidebar
• Optimization: Enhanced accessibility support for Phone, Clock, Weather, and Themes
• Optimization: Privacy protection, secure web browsing, and better feed
• Optimization: Mind map nodes are more convenient and intuitive now

System

• Stable MIUI based on Android 11

Sized 3GB and carrying firmware version 13.0.1.0.RFDCNXM, the update is only available for Mi Pilot Testers as of now. But once it’s found to be bug-free, it should be rolled out for more users in China, after which a global rollout should commence. As with every other update, not all of the features will be making their way into the global MIUI 13 build for the Mi Note 10, though.

The post Mi Note 10 bags MIUI 13 update in China with one bit you may not like appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi has started rolling out MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for three more devices. The first one is the POCO F3 GT, which was released at the end of July 2021. The second and third models are Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro respectively. This duo made its debut in November 2019.

The POCO F3 GT is nothing but a rebranded Redmi K40 Gaming Edition. Since the original Chinese handset received the latest version of MIUI in China recently, it was obvious for the rebadged Indian version to get the update as well.

On the other hand, the Mi Note 10 and the Mi Note 10 Pro are basically the same phones with the only difference being their camera lens. Hence, they run a common MIUI build and are receiving the new update together. 

They are known as Mi CC9 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition in China. Currently, only the Indonesian variant has got access to the fresh version of MIUI.

The latest system update for the aforementioned Xiaomi group smartphones arrives with the following build number.

• POCO F3 GT

  • India – V12.5.7.0.RKJINXM

• Mi Note 10 / 10 Pro

  • Indonesia – V12.5.4.0.RFDIDXM

Like any other software update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Therefore, it may take some time to reach every user.

Xiaomi is expected to announce MIUI 13 very soon. But the company is yet to deliver the MIUI 12.5 update to most of its devices. The latest smartphones to get this update are Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro.

The Mi Note 10 and the Mi Note 10 Pro are rebranded Mi CC9 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition for international markets. The duo runs a common MIUI build. Hence, they receive new updates together.

The original Mi CC9 Pro handsets got the MIUI 12.5 update in late May. Hence, the Mi Note 10 Pro models were expected to get it soon.

Weeks later, the MIUI 12.5 update is finally live for the Mi Note 10 and the Mi Note 10 Pro. The latest system update is currently available for the ‘Indonesia’ and the ‘EEA’ variants of the phones. They arrive with build numbers V12.5.1.0.RFDIDXM and V12.5.1.0.RFDEUXM respectively.

Like any other OTA system update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Therefore, it may not be available for everyone at this moment. But it should reach all users in the coming days. The update shall also hit the Global and the Russian variants of the smartphones soon.

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 series debuted in late 2019 with MIUI 11 based on Android 9.0 Pie. So far, the devices have received updates for MIUI 12, MIUI 12.5, Android 10, and Android 11. As per a reliable tipster, it may also get an update to MIUI 13.

The post Xiaomi Mi Note 10/10 Pro bag MIUI 12.5 update appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi launched the Mi CC9 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition as the world’s first smartphones with a 108MP camera in late 2019. These phones are also known and Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro. They debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 9.0 (Pie) and were updated to Android 10 and MIUI 12. Now, they have started receiving the Android 11 update.

For those unaware, the Mi CC9 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition are basically the same smartphones with differences in RAM, storage, and lens. Hence, they run the same MIUI build.

Since they are also sold as Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro outside China, there are a total of five different MIUI builds namely China, Global, EEA, Russia, and Indonesia. All of them are currently on MIUI 12 based on Android 10 except for China.

The Chinese version (original) of the phone has been receiving weekly MIUI builds based on Android 11 for a very long time. But it has begun to receive the stable update only now with build number V12.1.3.0.RFDCNXM.

Currently, the build is in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase, and hence, it is only available for select users. Anyway, we expect Xiaomi to extend the update’s availability to more users as well as other regions in the coming days.

That said, the Mi CC9 Pro has now joined the elite list of Xiaomi smartphones (so many) that are currently running the latest version of Android.

The post Mi CC9 Pro receives Android 11 update, Mi Note 10/10 Pro should get it soon appeared first on Gizmochina.

Google is reported to officially unveil Android 11 on September 8. Ahead of it, the search giant itself and partner OEMs part of Beta program have been releasing builds for their select devices. Xiaomi is one of those companies and three of its devices namely Mi 10, Mi 10 Pro, and Redmi K30 Pro/POCO F2 Pro are officially enrolled in this program. Now, surprisingly, Mi CC9 Pro aka Mi Note 10 has also received Android 11 beta.

For those unaware, the official Xiaomi Android 11 Beta devices initially got an AOSP build. But soon later, the Chinese smartphone maker swapped it for MIUI 12. Since then, weekly MIUI beta builds for those devices have been based on Android 11.

When the company released weekly builds for this week, the Mi CC9 Pro also bagged Android 11 like the other three smartphones. Since MIUI beta builds are now only limited to China, users of the global variant of this handset – Mi Note 10/Mi Note 10 Pro will have to use custom recovery like TWRP to install this firmware.

Hene, we would recommend you not to go through this hassle if you do not what you are doing. Even if you manage to install this build, you will not have access to GMS (Google Mobiles Services) on this firmware since Google is banned in China.

Hopefully, Xiaomi releases Android 11 stable for Mi Note10/Mi Note 10 Pro sooner than later so that global users don’t miss out on all the fun.

Xiaomi launched the Mi Note 10 as a rebranded Mi CC9 Pro for international markets. It is the world’s first smartphone to feature 108MP camera. But it is also one of the last phones from the brand to receive Android 10 update, which is currently being rolled out to a handful of users with the global variant.

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 comes in three variants for international markets – Global, Europe (EEA), and Russia. However, the Android 10 update is only available for Global, that too for a few set of users. 

For the unaware, this kind of MIUI builds is known as Stable Beta. If there’s positive feedback from the users, then the same build will be rolled out to all. If not, a new build will be released again with bug fixes.

Anyway, talking about the update, it comes with build number MIUI 11.1.1.0.QFDMIXM and weighs 2.6GB in size. The software is still MIUI 11 with MIUI 12 scheduled to arrive in a couple of months from now. Last but not least, the security patch level also gets a bump to April 2020.

Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short plays an important role in the Android modding community. It is essential for backups and installing custom ROMs and mods on smartphones and tablets. Being an open-source project, TWRP recovery is available for various devices and now Xiaomi Mi Note 10 and Mi Mix 3 5G also obtain official support.

Stock recoveries on Android devices have limited functionalities. They are designed to only install official OEM software. Therefore, custom recoveries came into picture and TWRP is the most popular one. 

These recoveries can backup all the partition of the device and can even restore them when needed. Further, they are also capable of installing non-OEM software like custom ROMs and mods. Modified versions of TWRP can also enable dual-booting on certain devices.

Now as TWRP adds official support for Xiaomi Mi Note 10 and Mi Mix 3 5G (the company’s first 5G smartphone), users of these devices can finally enjoy the benefits of an official custom recovery. However, they will need to unlock the bootloader of their handsets first to install it.

After installing TWRP, users of the above-mentioned devices can backup their stock MIUI ROM, install custom ROMs and custom mods of their choice or even install the latest stable or beta MIUI Recovery ROM.

Update: The source of the leak has posted new info that says the phone has four rear cameras and not five. The article has been corrected to reflect the new camera specs.

Xiaomi’s Mi Note 10 launched late last year as a premium mid-range phone with a focus on camera performance. The phone and its Pro version are the first in the world to have a 108MP sensor and the pro-model currently sits at the sixth spot on DXOMark’s list of phones with the best cameras. A new leak has revealed there will be a “Lite” version of the phone.

The specs of the Mi Note 10 Lite were posted on Twitter by Sudhanshu Ambhore last Friday but he wasn’t sure about the name of the device. Yesterday, he confirmed in a quoted tweet that the phone is indeed the Mi Note 10 Lite.

According to the original tweet, the phone has model number M2002F4LG. It will have a 6.47-inch display just like the Mi Note 10 but there is no mention of the type of display (AMOLED or LCD). We also don’t know if it will have a waterdrop notch or a punch-hole.

And there's a 16MP front camera, instead of 32MP found in Mi Note 10

The Mi Note 10 Lite will swap the 108MP primary camera for a 64MP camera. It will also have an 8MP camera, a 5MP camera, and a 2MP camera for a quad-camera setup. The phone also replaces the 32MP selfie camera of the Mi Note 10 with a 16MP sensor.

With respect to the processor, the Mi Note 10 Lite will have Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 730 under the hood. The RAM and storage capacity wasn’t stated but there will be two versions.

The phone will pack a 5260mAh battery just like its siblings with support for 30W wired fast charging and will run Android 10 out of the box.

There is no info about a release date yet but more details should surface next month.

The post [Updated: Four rear cams] Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite with SD730 SoC and 64MP penta-camera coming soon appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi Mi Note 10 is the latest installment in the Chinese tech giant’s popular Mi Note series. This family of smartphones generally targets the mid rage segment and has been generally successful due to attractive prices and specs. Now, the latest Mi Note 10 has undergone a rigorous durability test from renowned YouTuber JerryRigEverything, known for smartphones breakdown and durability tests.

According to the tests, the Mi Note 10’s body, which is protected by Corning’s Gorilla glass, fared well in the scratch test. Up until the 6th level, both the rear panel and display were unharmed, although the Mohs scale at level 6 managed to leave a mark on both sides. The camera was also placed under similar rough testing and was found to be relatively well protected. Meaning, the camera module glass will not be harmed by every day use.

In another test, the screen was also subjected to a heat test by a small fire from a lighter. The Mi Note 10 survived this test as well. Due to its aluminum frame, the scratches from the box cutter were noticeable, but only due to excessive force being applied.

So rest assured it isn’t fragile as the video might make it seem. Another positive aspect regarding the Mi Note 10 was that it barely bent during the forceful pressure test. For an in depth review on the durability test, you can check out the video from JerryRigEverything above.

Xiaomi had an event today in Japan to mark its official entry into the island nation. The Chinese tech giant was supposed to launch in the country next year but decided to make it early. At the event today, Xiaomi announced five products including the Mi Note 10 series, the Mi Smart Band 4, Mi Power Bank 3

Mi Note 10 Series

The Mi Note 10 series are the only smartphones Xiaomi announced at the event today. The Mi Note 10 (6GB + 128GB) has a price tag of JPY 52,800 (~$489) excluding tax while the Mi Note 10 Pro (8GB + 256GB) will sell for JPY 64,800 (~$597) excluding tax. Both phones will be sold by Amazon Japan. Pre-order starts today for the two devices but the Mi Note 10 will go on sale on December 16 while the Mi Note 10 Pro will go on sale on December 23.

The Mi Note 10 has a 6.47-inch AMOLED FHD+ display with a waterdrop notch and Gorilla Glass 5. It is powered by the Snapdragon 730G processor and packs a 5260mAh battery with support for 30W fast charging that allows you to charge the device from empty to full in just 65 minutes.

The phone has a 32MP selfie camera and a 108MP penta-camera setup on the back. The primary sensor is paired with a 12MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom, another 5MP 5x optical zoom camera, a 20MP ultrawide angle camera, and a 2MP macro camera. There is NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, dual SIM support, an audio jack, a USB Type-C port, and an in-display fingerprint scanner.

The Mi Note 10 Pro has nearly the same specs but its 108MP camera has an 8P lens and not a 7P lens like the standard version. It also has more RAM and storage.

Mi Smart Band 4

The Mi Smart Band 4 is Xiaomi’s latest fitness tracker and it has made its way to Japan. The Mi Smart Band 4 will be sold for JPY 3490 (~$32) excluding tax by Amazon Japan. Pre-orders begin today while sale begins on December 23.

Mi Power Bank 3

The Mi Power Bank 3 10000mah version brings 18W fast charging support for JPY 1899 (~$18) excluding tax. The power bank will be available in blue and silver and sold by Amazon but there is no mention of when it will be available for purchase.

Mi Power Bank 3 10000mAh Japanese version

The Mi Power 3 10000mAh is different from the one that launched in China early this year. The one sold in Japan has two full-size USB output ports rather than one. Its USB Type-C port is also only an input port, not a 2-way port. The power button is also a circle and no pill-shaped. You still get a MicroUSB port.

Xiaomi says the power bank is also allowed on flights.

Mi IH Rice Cooker

Rice is a pretty popular food in Japan, so it is a smart move for Xiaomi to launch its Mi IH Rice Cooker in the market. This is a smart home product, so it works with the Mi Home App.

The rice cooker will sell for JPY 9,999 (~$92) excluding tax. There is no info on availability.

Mi Luggage

If you are a frequent traveler, then Xiaomi’s Mi Luggage will surely interest you. It will be available in Japan in two versions: a metal version with an aviation-grade aluminum body and a JPY 17,990 price tag and a more affordable JPY 7990 (~$74) version made of Makrolon. These suitcases will also be sold by Amazon.

The metal version comes in silver while the Makrolon version is available in blue, gray, and black. Both are 20-inch suitcases with TSA approved locks and adjustable handles.

The post Xiaomi announces Mi Note 10, Smart Band 4, rice cooker and more in Japan appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi’s Mi Note 10 smartphone has already been launched in Europe and in China as Mi CC9 Pro. Now, the company is all set to launch the phone, which is the world’s first to feature 108-megapixel camera, in India.

The company had previously teased the arrival of the Mi Note 10 smartphone in the Indian market through a tweet. Now, several reports hint that the device could go official in India pretty soon, by January 2020.

Xiaomi is running a global photography competition as per the its terms and conditions, winners will get the Mi Note 10 smartphone worth “Rs 46,832.” It’s not clear whether this is the final India pricing or just a tentative pricing based on the European model.

However, if this turns out to be true, then the Mi Note 10 will be the company’s most expensive smartphone in the Indian market. Since past few years, Xiaomi has been focusing on entry-level and mid-range segment in the Indian market and has stopped selling the premium devices in India.

With the launch of Redmi K20 Pro smartphone in India, it seems that the company is once again testing waters for bringing its premium devices into the market. For this, the Mi Note 10 seems to be a great choice and its success could forge way for upcoming premium flagships from Xiaomi in India.

Apart from the powerful camera setup, the Mi Note 10 comes with a sleek design and powerful specifications, marshalled by Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G chipset. The smartphone comes with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB internal storage.

The smartphone features a 6.47-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a fingerprint reader underneath and a waterdrop notch at the top housing a 32MP selfie camera. The device also comes powered by a massive 5,260mAh battery along with support for 30W fast charging technology.

As for the pricing, the Mi Note 10 series is priced much cheaper in Malaysia than the phone’s pricing in Europe. Thus, we expect the Indian pricing of the Mi Note 10 to be in line with the Malaysian pricing.

Xiaomi last month hinted that the much-publicized Mi Note 10 series will be launched in Malaysia on December 3. The Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro were indeed unveiled in the Asian country yesterday as scheduled.

The Mi Note 10 and Note 10 Pro are the global versions of the Mi CC9 Pro and CC9 Pro Premium Edition. The most outstanding feature on the models is no doubt the massive 108MP main camera sensor they pack. The camera setup is no gimmick as the Chinese variant floored several flagship models including the iPhone 11 and Galaxy Note 10 to top DXOMark ranking alongside the Mate 30 Pro. The device has clinched several rave reviews but as it is common with large sensors, big isn’t always better as there are times you may find the camera output unimpressive.

Apart from the powerful camera setup, the Mi Note 10 and Note 10 Pro equally comes with a sleek design and powerful specs marshalled by a Snapdragon 730G chipset. The Note 10 comes with 6GB of RAM while the Note 10 Pro is available in 8GB RAM + 256GB storage combo.

Both models pack a 6.47-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a fingerprint reader underneath and a waterdrop notch at the top housing a 32MP selfie camera.  You may never run out of battery with the Mi Note 10 and Note 10 Pro as they have a big 5260mAh cell with 30W fast charge support.

As for the price, the Mi Note 10 is priced at RM 2099 ($502) while the Mi Note 10 Pro comes in at RM 2499 ($598). This is far cheaper than the retail prices in Europe where the Mi Note 10 sells for €549 ($608) while the Mi Note 10 Pro is priced at €649 ($719).

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro was announced earlier this month in China with a massive 108MP sensor at the back. The phone had a special CC9 Pro Premium edition as well featuring the world’s first 8P lens on a smartphone. However, ever since its launch, this special edition was pretty hard to purchase due to supply issues. That changed recently as the Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition is now available via open sale in China.

Xiaomi’s product manager Thomas Wang revealed that the company was struggling to procure a steady supply of the 8P lens in the first two weeks post-launch due to low production yield. However, the supply has stabilized now which allowed Xiaomi to list the Premium Edition on open sale. This particular edition is available on the company’s official website in 8GB RAM + 256GB variant for 3499 yuan ($498).

The Mi CC9 Pro comes with the mid-range Snapdragon 730G SoC. There’s a powerful penta-camera setup at the back featuring a 108 MP sensor along with a 5 MP (upscaled to 8MP) telephoto sensor with 5x optical zoom, another 12 MP 50mm (telephoto) 2x optical zoom lens, a 20 MP ultrawide shooter and a 2 MP dedicated macro lens. Up front there’s a 32MP sensor. A large 5260 mAh battery powers the device.

The Mi CC9 Pro was launched as the Mi Note 10 in Europe and will soon make it to India as well.

Xiaomi launched the Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro on November 6 as the global versions of the Mi CC9 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition which made its debut in China a week earlier. The launch event took place in Madrid, Spain but the device looks set to begin its global journey. Xiaomi Malaysia has announced via its Facebook page that the Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro will officially be launched in Malaysia on December 3.

The Mi Note 10 models came out with a bang when it was announced earlier this month, thanks to the massive 108MP main camera sensor it packs. The camera setup is no gimmick as the Chinese variant floored several flagship models including the iPhone 11 and Galaxy Note 10 to top DXOMark ranking alongside the Mate 30 Pro. The device has clinched several rave reviews but as it is common with large sensors, big isn’t always better as there are times you may find the camera output unimpressive.

The post Xiaomi Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro launching in Malaysia Dec. 3 appeared first on Gizmochina.

The highlight of Xiaomi’s Madrid event today was the unveiling of the Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro. The phones are the world’s first 108MP penta-camera smartphones. The Mi Note 10 is actually a rebranded Mi CC9 Pro while the Mi Note 10 Pro is just a version with an 8P lens instead of the 7P lens on the standard version.

Design

The Mi Note 10 is covered in 3D glass on both sides, Gorilla Glass 5 to be precise. Xiaomi calls the display Arc AMOLED. There is a waterdrop notch and the bezels are actually quite thin. The phone has rounded corners and the edges are tapered, so it should be more comfortable in your hands.

The Mi Note 10 is available in three colors – Aurora Green, Glacier White and Midnight Black.

Specifications

The Mi Note 10’s Arc AMOLED display is 6.47-inches in size. Just like several of Xiaomi’s phones, the resolution is FHD+. The phone has a 19.5:9 aspect ratio, has a TUV Rheinland low blue light certification, and a 400,000:1 aspect ratio. The phone features an all-new in-display fingerprint scanner that is 88% thinner than previous generations and has a larger scanning area.

There is a Snapdragon 730G processor inside the phone. The Mi Note 10 Pro has the same processor and not a Snapdragon 855/Snapdragon 855+ SoC as expected. The standard version has 6GB of RAM and 128GB os storage while the Mi Note 10 Pro has 8GB of RAM and 256GBof storage.

The highlight of the phone is its rear cameras which total five. Arranged vertically, the first camera is a 5MP f/2.0 telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom, 10x hybrid zoom, and up to 50x digital zoom. This sensor also has optical image stabilization. It is followed by a 12MP f/2.0 telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom and Dual PD. The large 108MP f/1.69 sensor comes next with its 1.6um 4-in-1 Super Pixel and optical image stabilization.

Alongside confirming the processor inside the phone. Xiaomi’s CEO, Lei Jun, shared a photo showing the phone’s internals to give us a look at the penta-camera system.

The top camera is the 5MP camera with 10x hybrid zoom. This camera has optical image stabilization. It is followed by the 12MP 50mm portrait camera. The 108MP sensor is the next and the biggest of all five cameras. It has a large 1/1.33” pixel size, an f/1.69 aperture size, and optical image stabilization. The fourth sensor is the 20MP ultrawide angle camera and it is followed by a 2MP camera with a macro lens.

An official tweet released by Xiaomi earlier this week confirmed that the company is gearing up to launch the Mi Note 10 smartphone. Both phones have appeared on Geekbench benchmarking platform. Their Geekbench listings have revealed that the Mi Note 10 is a rebranded version of Mi CC9 Pro.

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Geekbench screenshot reveals that it runs on Android 9 Pie OS and it is powered by an octa-core processor with a base frequency of 1.8GHz along with 4 GB of RAM. It has scored 544 in the single-core test of Geekbench and 1713 in its multi-core test.

The Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Geekbench screengrab states that it boots to Android 9 Pie OS. It is driven by octa-core processor with 1.8GHz base frequency and 8 GB of RAM. In the single-core test, it has scored 545 and it has recorded 1640 in the multi-core test. The Mi CC9 Pro is speculated to be powered by Snapdragon 730G mobile platform. Hence, it is likely that the Mi Note 10 will be also fueled by the same SoC.

Also, both listing carries the same ‘Tucana’ codename which indicates both are identical devices. It appears that the Xiaomi Tucana phone will be launching in China as Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro and markets outside the home market will be receiving it as Xiaomi Mi Note 10. The Chinese firm will be also launching the more powerful Mi Note 10 Pro alongside the Mi Note 10. There is a possibility that the Mi Note 10 Pro model could be featuring Snapdragon 855+ SoC.

For Xiaomi fans, November is going to be a big month. The Chinese tech giant will announce its first smartwatch, the Mi TV 5 series, and the Mi CC9 Pro on November 5 in China. For its fans outside China, the launch of the Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro is what they are looking forward to. Xiaomi is yet to announce a launch date for the Mi Note 10 series but the full specifications for both phones have now leaked on Twitter.

The specs were posted on Twitter by a user that goes by Mehek Goaswami (@MehekGoaswami). Below are the specs for both devices:

Mi Note 10

• 6.4-inch FHD+ AMOLED display
• Snapdragon 730G processor
• 6GB RAM
• 128GB UFS 2.1 storage
• Penta camera setup which includes 108MP + 16MP + 12MP cameras
• 2x optical zoom
• 32MP selfie camera
• 4000mAh battery with support for 30W fast charge
• IR blaster, NFC, and audio jack.

Mi Note 10 Pro

• 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate
• Snapdragon 855+ processor
• 6GB RAM
• 128GB UFS 3.0 storage
• Penta camera setup which includes 108MP + 16MP + 12MP cameras
• 5x optical zoom
• 32MP selfie camera
• 4000mAh battery with support for 40W fast charge
• IR blaster, NFC, and audio jack

We advise you to take the specs with a grain of salt as there are some details that are off. For example, the Mi Note 10 is practically the same device as the Mi CC9 Pro. While it is possible that Xiaomi may include 2x optical zoom to differentiate it from the Pro version, we doubt they will give it a smaller battery capacity.

The TENAA listing for the Mi CC9 Pro already revealed the phone has a 5170mAh battery and this is the same battery capacity we expect the Mi Note 10 to have. Also, the Mi Note 10 Pro should have the same battery capacity too or even larger since as it has a bigger display, so it can’t possibly have a 4000mAh battery.

The Mi Note 10 is an upcoming smartphone from Xiaomi. It recently got certified alongside a Pro version in Thailand, hence confirming it will be available outside China. Now, Xiaomi has revealed the first official teaser for the phone and it looks pretty familiar.

The teaser which was posted on Twitter by the official account not only confirms the Mi Note 10 is coming but it reveals it will be the world’s first 108MP penta camera phone. Does that sound familiar? Of course, it does.

The Mi CC9 Pro which Xiaomi also teased today and is scheduled to launch on November 5 also has a 108MP penta camera. Based on this similarity, the Mi Note 10 might be the international version of the Mi CC9 Pro.

Both the Mi Note 10 and the CC9 Pro will share a lot of features.
The SoC will be the differentiating factor.#Xiaomi #redmi #cc9pro #mismartwatch #MiTV5 #MiNote10

— Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) October 28, 2019

However, Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) tweeted that the Mi Note 10 and the Mi CC9 Pro will share a lot of features but will differ with respect to processor. Leaks say the Mi CC9 Pro will have a Snapdragon 730G processor which is currently the most powerful mid-range processor.

If the Mi Note 10 will have a different processor, it will either have a less-powerful chipset than the Snapdragon 730G or a more powerful one (Snapdragon 855). This is just speculations though and the outcome may be different.

The Mi Note 10’s release date has not yet been announced but it should also be in November.

Xiaomi is backtracking on a statement its top executive made earlier this year and will be launching a new model for the Mi Note series. Actually, scratch that. It is launching not one but two new Mi Note phones. The two phones are the Mi Note 10 and the Mi Note 10 Pro.

Initially, we only knew about the Mi Note 10. Its retail box even leaked over a week ago. However, certification documents from Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) have revealed there will also be a Mi Note 10 Pro. The info was first posted on Twitter by Sudhanshu Ambhore (@Sudhanshu1414).

It was also reported that both phones have also been certified by Russia’s EEC. The Mi Note 10’s model number is revealed as M1910F4G while the Mi Note 10 Pro’s model number is M1910F4S. The specs of both phones are currently unknown, so we can’t say if these are new flagships or premium mid-range devices.

There have been reports the Mi Note 10 will launch by the end of the month but Xiaomi has kept mute on the device’s existence. The company usually schedules its launch events on Tuesdays which means October 29 should be the date of release. But with no official info yet as of today, the Mi Note 10 and Mi Note 10 Pro will probably launch next month.

The last Mi Note phone, the Mi Note 3 was announced in 2017. When it launched, we were surprised it was not a flagship device like its predecessor but an upper mid-range phone. Xiaomi didn’t release a successor last year, and a few months ago they said the series along with the Mi Max series won’t be getting new models this year, but that will change later this month, at least for the Mi Note series.

It has been reported that Xiaomi will actually announce a new Mi Note smartphone by the end of October. This new phone will launch as the Mi Note 10 (yes, that is a big jump from 3). Evidence of the phone’s existence has now surfaced online.

Today, Twitter user @TechytMr shared a photo of the Mi Note 10’s retail box lending further credence to the device’s existence. Unfortunately, the retail box doesn’t reveal any of the phone’s specs.

Other than the Mi Note 10, it has also been reported that Xiaomi will announce the Mi CC9 Pro by the end of the month. The Mi CC9 Pro is expected to pack some really interesting camera features such as a 108MP sensor.

Chinese blogger and leaker who goes by @Digital chat station posted on Weibo earlier today that Xiaomi’s upcoming smartphone will not be priced low and will not follow the company’s tradition of price-performance ratio. However, “users who like to take pictures can check it out,” he said. Although he doesn’t specifically mention the name of the device, he is most likely talking about the Mi CC9 Pro and not the Mi Note 10 since the Mi CC9 series is aimed at camera lovers.
