Third-party reviews

What we like about Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 5G (12GB + 512GB)

  • Outstanding main camera photo and video quality, across various lighting and zoom levels.
  • Excellent, arguably best-in-class, audio quality from the stereo speakers.
  • Top-tier performance thanks to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 5G chipset and LPDDR5 RAM options.
  • Great battery life that can last a full, or even two, days with medium usage.
  • Very fast 50W wired charging (65W charger included in the box) and 30W wireless charging support.
  • High-quality 90Hz AMOLED display that is bright, color-accurate, and smooth.
  • Premium, sturdy design with a matte glass finish and a comfortable feel in hand.
  • Useful extra features like an IR blaster (universal remote) and reverse wireless charging.

What we don't like about Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 5G (12GB + 512GB)

  • No official IP rating for water and dust resistance, only basic splash protection.
  • The software interface (MIUI) comes with preinstalled bloatware and occasional advertisements that need to be manually disabled.
  • It is a heavy and large phone, which can make one-handed use challenging for some users.
  • High initial launch price point, similar to major competitors like the Samsung Galaxy S20 series.
  • The in-display fingerprint sensor is accurate but often perceived as slower than physical or some competitor sensors.
  • Lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack and no expandable storage (microSD card slot).
  • Selfie camera performance is considered average compared to the excellent rear cameras.

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro 5G (12GB+512GB) is a premium flagship smartphone powered by the high-end Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor, 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and 512GB of UFS 3.0 storage. Key features include a 6.67-inch Super AMOLED 90Hz display, a versatile quad-camera system with a 108MP main sensor capable of 8K video recording, and exceptional, symmetrically balanced stereo speakers. It boasts excellent battery life with class-leading 50W wired and 30W wireless fast charging, and the inclusion of an IR blaster for controlling home appliances. The primary drawbacks are the lack of an official IP68 water resistance rating (only splash resistant), the absence of a 3.5mm headphone jack or expandable memory storage, and the presence of some pre-installed software ("bloatware") and occasional advertisements in the user interface.
