Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: November 2026 · How we calculate this

What customers like about Xiaomi Mi Note 10 (6GB + 128GB)

  • Versatile and high-quality camera system, especially the main 108MP sensor in good light, and the telephoto lenses are particularly effective.
  • Exceptional battery life, often lasting up to two days with regular use.
  • Fast 30W wired charging, which can fully charge the large battery in about an hour and a half.
  • Vibrant and high-quality 6.47-inch AMOLED display with good brightness and contrast.
  • Premium in-hand feel and attractive design with curved glass edges.
  • Includes a 3.5mm headphone jack and an IR blaster for controlling home appliances, which are often missing in other phones.
  • Good value for the price, offering features typically found in more expensive flagship devices.

What customers don't like about Xiaomi Mi Note 10 (6GB + 128GB)

  • The mid-range Snapdragon 730G processor struggles with processing 108MP images, leading to significant delays in the camera app and general performance.
  • The camera system, while versatile, can be inconsistent, with some issues in dynamic range, low-light performance (especially with non-main sensors), and occasional software bugs like ghosting in HDR mode.
  • No microSD card slot for expandable storage, which can be a limitation given the large file sizes of 108MP photos and 4K videos.
  • The in-screen fingerprint sensor is often slow and less reliable compared to physical sensors or top-tier flagships.
  • The curved screen edges can lead to accidental touches and make typing on the edges uncomfortable for some users.
  • The large camera bump makes the phone wobble on flat surfaces and is prone to scuffing.
  • Lack of an official IP rating for water resistance and no wireless charging support.

Verdict

The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 (6GB + 128GB) is a camera-centric smartphone known for its revolutionary 108MP penta-camera system, which delivers exceptional photo detail and versatility with telephoto, ultrawide, and macro lenses. Its main pros include a vibrant 6.47-inch 3D curved AMOLED display, a massive 5260mAh battery that offers excellent endurance, and a premium glass-and-aluminum design. Performance is driven by the capable, though not top-tier, Snapdragon 730G processor. Primary cons involve the phone being relatively heavy and bulky due to the large battery, and the 730G chipset may show limitations compared to flagship-level processors in demanding tasks.
