Xiaomi unveiled the Mi 10 Ultra on August 11 as part of activities to mark its ten years anniversary. The device was indeed a flagship model as it beat all other existing smartphones, including the Mi 10 Ultra, to emerge as the highest-rate camera. Apparently, Xiaomi is still optimizing the camera even with its prowess.

The update comes with the build number MIUI V12.0.10.0 QJJCNXM and delivers a stable MIUI 12 build. Apart from the improved camera software, the update also deliver anupgrade to the system UI. Here is the full changelog of the device.

System

• Optimized battery display
• Optimize the temperature control strategy for charging.
• Optimize the charge-off problem under high-temperature conditions.
• Optimize the problem of slow battery activation caused by not using the phone for a long time.
• Optimize the dynamic picture compensation experience of the video toolbox

Camera

The MIUI team reportedly disclosed that the camera update upgrades the camera algorithm to that of the model sent to DXOMark for testing. In short, it optimizes the imaging effect.

As a reminder of the specs, the Mi 10 Ultra is equipped with a 6.67-inch curved OLED panel with 120Hz refresh rate. The device is powered by the Snapdragon 865 5G platform, paired with LPDDR5 memory and UFS 3.1 flash memory.

At Xiaomi’s 10th Anniversary Special Event in China, the company unveiled a number of star products but the most spectacular one for smartphone enthusiasts is definitely the Mi 10 Ultra which is its most powerful smartphone for 2020. As the name suggests, the phone aims to take on the big flagships in the market like the Huawei P40 Pro Plus and the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. The flagship phone did a good job in that regard as it managed to beat the world’s best camera phone according to DxOMark – the Huawei P40 Pro, with a score of 130.

Xiaomi has given an insight into the technology at play on the Mi 10 Ultra’s camera. The camera was the product of several research efforts by engineers in Xiaomi’s numerous R&D centres around the world: in Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Nanjing, Tokyo, Santiago, Bangalore, Paris and Tampere.

The main camera has a 48 MP 1/1.32” sensor that can do on-chip single-frame HDR processing. Basically, pixels are grouped into three categories: short, medium and long exposure. Then those are merged into an HDR signal as the sensor reads out the image line by line.

The Mi 10 Ultra is Xiaomi’s first phone that can record HDR10 video, thanks to this on-sensor processing. It also has a rare 8P lens design – a lens with eight elements, which reduces aberrations as much as possible. Each element added to the lens makes it exponentially trickier (and more expensive) to produce.

Making the telephoto camera a perfect fit was yet another challenge. The phone packs a 48MP SonyIMX586 sensor with a large 1/2.32” aperture. The size of the sensor would have made the module too thick to fit into the frame of the phone. In this regard, Xiaomi had to use a D-cut lens to slim it down. D-cut lenses make optical image stabilization more difficult but after several attempts, the engineers got it just right.

Furthermore, the Mi 10 Ultra’s ultrawide-angle lens has a 128° field of view. It uses a 7P lens again to minimize distortion, especially around the edges of the image. This helps improve the resolution so that there wasn’t any need to correct the distortion in software.

Xiaomi‘s 10th-anniversary ceremony is about to kick off with the Mi 10 Ultra expected to be the star of the night. Just ahead of the event, the mi q10 Ultra has been listed on the website of China’s telecoms regulatory agency TENAA.

The TENAA listing shows the images of the device and some of the key specs. The TENAA images are those of the version with a transparent glass back. The model comes with the model number M2007J1SC and will sport a 6.67-inch curved display similar to that of the Mi 10 Pro. The phone is listed to have a dimension of 162.38 x 75.04 x 9.45mm.

The listing also confirms the presence of 5G connectivity onboard the model. However, it is listed to have a 2,180mAh battery which is incorrect. The Mi 10 Ultra is executed to pack a 4300mAh battery.

The unboxing video of the Mi 10 Ultra had recently leaked online and with the launch just hours away, we won’t have to wait too long to find out other details such as pricing and availability.

Xiaomi is expected to roll out the drums on August 11 in China to launch a number of products as part o activities to mark its 10th anniversary. One of the products, as confirmed by CEO Lei Jun, is the Mi 10 Extreme Commemorative Edition which will bear the moniker Mi 10 Ultra on the global turf.

Ahead of the launch, several details have emerged in quick succession regarding the features the special edition model will pack. Perhaps, the most interesting of all the details we came across the one by tipster Ice Universe that the Mi 10 Ultra will shock the world, without specifying why. A second leakster ross Young then added under the same tweet that the device will come with an under-display camera.

However, don’t go rejoicing Mi fans that you’ll soon lay your hands on an under-screen camera-packing Mi phone as the source also added that the production volume for the model will be very small. That is attributed to the phone being more of a demo product than one intended to be commercialized. Anyway, this contradicts Lei Jun’s promise of making plenty of units available.

It will likely be the first phone with an under panel camera. But volume will be (shockingly) small…:) Mostly a demo product from what I hear.

A separate leak also suggests that Xiaomi will release two versions of the Mi 10 Ultra. One will come with a ceramic panel while a second variant will have a transparent back panel. The leak also shows that the version with a ceramic back panel which should be the base variant will come in 8GB+256GB and 12GB+256 GB configurations. On the other hand, the model with a transparent back panel will be available in 12GB+256 GB and 16GB+512GB options.

Other topnotch features the epoch marking flagship is expected to bring with it includes an improved vapor chamber cooling, HiRes audio with a custom algorithm, next-gen FP reader and a periscope lens.

The Mi 10 Ultra is expected to feature an AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate support. The device is powered by a Snapdragon 865+ chipset with a customizable GPU. It is also expected to pack a 4,500 mAh battery with 100 or 120 W fast wired charging and 55 W wireless charging.
