Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro

Xiaomi announced Mi 10T Pro alongside Mi 10T and Mi 10T Lite at the end of September, and we’ve spent the past few weeks vigorously testing Mi 10T Pro.
Our first impressions are extremely positive. This is a mid-range phone with a huge 5,000mAh battery that turned in the highest PCMark battery life score we’ve seen to date, a super-smooth 144Hz display, a triple camera that headlines with a 108Mp lens and 5G.
Add to that a mostly appealing design, strong performance and hi-res audio, and it’s difficult to understand exactly what is mid-range about Mi 10T Pro – aside from the price, of course.
DESIGN
When I tell you that looking at Mi 10T Pro is like looking in a huge shiny mirror, it might sound conceited when I tell you that it’s gorgeous. Of course, I am talking about the phone, which comes in three attractive finishes: Cosmic Black, Lunar Silver and Aurora Blue. The latter is one of the few differentiating factors between this Pro model and the standard Mi 10T.
Reviewed here in Cosmic Black, Mi 10T Pro is not the type of phone you hide away in a case – and you needn’t do so either, with protective Gorilla Glass 5 and a strong aluminium frame feeling very sturdy in the hand. There’s also a silver ion coating, which is apparently good for fighting off germs, but no certified waterproofing rating (Xiaomi says it is splashproof).
It is
