2021 just started and Xiaomi has launched the Mi10i in India which is the first device from the company this year. The smartphone comes with a 6.67-inch Full HD+ display that offers a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR, and HDR 10+ support. Under the hood, the device is powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G processor which is further coupled with 6/8 GB of RAM and 64/128 GB of Storage. The device starts at Rs.20,999 in India and it comes in three color options — Pacific Sunrise, Atlantic Blue, and Midnight Black. Is the Xiaomi Mi10i worth your money? Let’s find out. BUY IT ON AMAZON When it comes to design, Xiaomi loves to experiment with their phones and it’s the same case with the Mi10i. The device is available in three colors and we got the Pacific Sunrise variant to play around with. It comes with a beautiful gradient finish on its Corning Gorilla Glass 5 back and weighs about 217 grams. The device looks and feels premium when you hold it in your hands, however, it’s a little heavy when you compare it with the OnePlus Nord and some other smartphones available out there. Since the glass back comes with a gradient finish it doesn’t attract many fingerprints and you can easily use the device without the case. It has a circular camera module on the back that bulges out and makes the smartphone wobble when you keep it on a flat surface. Along with this, the smartphone also comes with the Mi branding on the bottom and that’s what differentiates it from the Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G that was launched in China. Just like most of the Xiaomi smartphones out there, the Volume Buttons and the Power Button is placed on the right. The Power Button on the device doubles up as a fingerprint scanner and helps you to unlock the device in a second. On the bottom, there’s a USB Type-C port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a speaker grill. The Mi10i comes with Dual Stereo Speakers and the sound output from these speakers is top-notch. Moving on, you get the SIM Tray on the left but it isn’t a triple card slot which means that you can either use a MicroSD Card along with a SIM Card else you can use two SIM Cards in the device. On the top, the device comes with the signature IR Blaster by Xiaomi that can be used to control your TV and other home devices straight from your smartphone. You can have a look at the Mi10i below. Talking about the Display, the Mi10i comes with a 6.67-inch Full HD+ LCD display with a 20:9 aspect ratio. It’s a 120 Hz display that comes with 450 nits brightness, HDR, HDR10+, and Corning Gorilla Glass 5 on the top. Even though this is an LCD Panel we had no problems while we were using it. The display is super bright and you won’t have any issues when you are using it in direct sunlight. The 120Hz refresh rate makes the device feel smooth and there is no lag when you are switching between apps or launching new things on your device. Gaming also gets better because of the higher refresh rate and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 750G handles every game with ease which makes the overall experience enjoyable. The colors on the Display are Vivid and punchy, thanks to this the media streaming experience gets better.
