Xiaomi first introduced the Explorer Edition with a transparent back panel on the Mi 8 Explorer Edition which was released in 2018. The company added an Explorer edition to last year’s Mi 9 flagship lineup. However, Xiaomi released a shocker earlier this year, hinting that the Mi 10 won’t get the transparent version.

In a surprise development, pictures of a Mi 10 model with a transparent rear panel has been shared by Xiaomi’s Marketing department. The design was achieved by swapping the back cover with a transparent glass panel. Thus, you get to see the actual internals of the Mi 10 unlike the Mi 9 and Mi 8 Explorer editions that had dummy internals on display. The Mi 10 internals look quite neat and beautiful such that you won’t distinguish it from the previous iterations. The transparent panel shows the camera, flash, battery, wireless charging coil, and a large area of ​​double-layer thermally conductive graphite covering the entire motherboard area is clearly shown.

The development has prompted some fans to request that the company launch such back covers and provide after-sales replacements for fans who’d want to have it on their phones. That isn’t likely to happen but we may see third-party transparent glass panels soon.
