It's almost time for the arrival of Xiaomi's new flagship, which is always preceded by great anticipation. Or not. I don't know about you guys, but right now I don't feel like they're about to make a big splash.
The Xiaomi Mi 10 has been showing up in all the usual places, so we're sure it will be unveiled in February. It first popped up on the TENAA site, which doesn't reveal much, except that it will be 5G capable, and double NSA + SA. From this we can deduce the type of processor, which is more than likely to be the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 865.
The other obligatory round was on the Russian EEC side, which means that we can expect a Global release. No other details about the phone have been revealed.
Along with this, another mystery phone has also been added to the EEC site, which we have no idea what it is yet, but if I had to guess, it's the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro.
The picture above was leaked a while ago, of course this time it was taken with a camera phone, as usual. The picture already reveals quite a lot, curved edges like the Mi Note 10, a cut-out screen with a selfie camera like the Redmi K30 (although there's one on the right and two on the left) and probably a 2K display (that's just a rumour).
Granted, someone took a picture of it, even a factory-ordered picture has been posted online, which fully supports the above findings. You can also see a bit of the bottom where there is no Jack connector, either on top or not.
And here's the next picture of the Xiaomi Mi 10, now in normal quality. It's still only from the front, so again we don't know much more about it than before. Except for the colour, although that's interesting as it's burgundy at the bottom and bluish at the top. That would be a rough combination...
Wang Teng Thomas, Product Manager at Xiaomi, revealed some information about the release and price of the phones on Weibo. He dates its release to after the Chinese Spring Festival, which could be January 25 at the earliest, but before Samsung's February launch. The Xiaomi Mi 10 and Pro versions have been priced at around 3,500 (~150,000 Ft) and 5,000 (~217,000 Ft) Yuan respectively, with the big difference mostly being the display, as the regular will feature a 90 Hz AMOLED display, while the Pro will have a 120 Hz display. Also, the cameras will be different, while the sim will have a 64 MP Sony sensor, the Pro will have 108 MP. Of course, along with these there will be a telephoto lens, ultra wide and depth sensor. There are no rumours of a macro lens.
As soon as we know more, we'll be back with the details!
