The Xiami Me 10 Pro 5G: A Premium Smartphone with Impressive Features

Hi guys, I'm Serena, and welcome to my latest flagship review of the Xiaomi Me 10 Pro 5G. This phone is packed with all the features you'd expect from a premium 5G smartphone, including a powerful Snapdragon 865 chipset, a stunning 90Hz display, a large battery, and fast charging capabilities.

As I've been using this phone for about a week now, I can confidently say that it's been an enjoyable experience. The Me 10 Pro 5G costs around $1,100 when converted from euros, which is already more expensive than the Samsung Galaxy S20, Motorola Edge Plus, and OnePlus 8 Pro. However, let's dive into its features and see what makes it stand out.

One of the most impressive cameras on this phone is the 108-megapixel primary sensor. While more megapixels don't necessarily translate to better photos, the idea behind this camera is that you can zoom in and still retain a lot of detail even if you crop the image. And I have to say, the camera did deliver crisp and vibrant photos with plenty of detail.

The phone's design features a distinctive big bump in the shape of an exclamation mark on the back, which houses not one, not two, but four shooters: a 20-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera, a 12-megapixel telephoto lens, and an 8-megapixel telephoto lens. This setup allows for some impressive portrait mode shots, although I found it to be slightly disappointing compared to other devices.

Speaking of cameras, I also tested the phone's low-light imaging, which was surprisingly good considering the limited amount of light available. The phone managed to capture a beautiful cityscape after sunset, although the color rendition wasn't entirely accurate – in person, the sky appeared more grayish-black than it did on camera. Still, it was a nice surprise given the challenging lighting conditions.

In addition to its cameras, the Me 10 Pro 5G also features an AI-enhanced image processing system that can be turned on or off at your discretion. This feature helps inject life into photos, especially in low-light conditions, by boosting colors and details. While it's not a game-changer, it's still a nice touch.

Now, let's talk about the software. Xiaomi's MIUI 11 is layered on top of Android 10, offering a playful and colorful interface that's fun to personalize with various animations and widgets. One notable feature is the always-on display, which shows you essential information like time, date, and weather without requiring you to wake up your phone. Dark mode is also available, although I have to say I miss the more traditional doze mode.

One of the most useful features on this phone, however, is its reverse wireless charging capability. This allows you to top up other devices while your own battery runs out – a convenient feature, especially when you're running low on power and need to quickly recharge your AirPods or any other device that supports wireless charging.

In terms of battery life, I was pleasantly surprised by the Me 10 Pro's performance. While it has a smaller 4500mAh battery compared to its more affordable sibling, the Me 10, I found it lasted me well over 24 hours with moderate usage. When the phone did finally run out of juice, however, recharging it took around 55 minutes – not too shabby.

Finally, let's talk about the design and build quality of the phone. The Me 10 Pro is available in two colors: Alpine White and Solstice Gray. I received the latter by Xiaomi, which features a sleek and metallic finish that looks attractive without being too shiny or overwhelming. However, be warned – this finish does make fingerprints more noticeable, so if you're particular about keeping your phone clean, you might want to consider a different option.

So, are you going to buy the Xiami Me 10 Pro 5G? If you're in the market for a premium smartphone with impressive cameras and features like reverse wireless charging, then this phone is certainly worth considering. While it's more expensive than some of its competitors, I believe it offers enough value to justify the higher price tag.

That's all for now – thanks for watching, and stay home safe until we catch you again!

really been enjoying it so far this phone costs about eleven hundred US dollars when converted from euros and that's that price it's already more expensive than the samsung galaxy s 20 the motorola edge plus and the one plus eight pro but let's not waste any more time and let's dive into the features of this phone and what it's really about is the camera and i'm really talking about one camera in particular and that is the hundred and eight megapixel camera but why would you want photos that large anyway well although more megapixels don't necessarily translate to better photos the idea is you can zoom into the image and it will still retain a lot of detail even if you crop it the camera captured crisp and vibrant photos with a lot of detail the phone's got this big bump in the shape of an exclamation mark as you can see and that's home to three other shooters for a total of four including a 20 megapixel ultra wide camera a 12 megapixel telephoto lens and an 8 megapixel telephoto lens on the front there's a pretty discreet end display selfie camera with a 20 megapixel lens I love that Xiaomi decided to eliminate the knotch entirely in the main 10 series now for portrait mode it's one of my favorite camera features and I use it a lot but on the me 10 Pro it was alright so I also tested out the phone's low-light imaging and it was pretty good I took this photo after the Sun had set here in Hong Kong and you can see it that the camera captured the city skyline quite well the color of the sky though wasn't true to life it was grayish black in person in the image it appears light blue here are some photos I took of my dog rocky it didn't capture as much detail of his fur as I would have liked and as you can see the photos look washed out compared to the picture from the iPhone 10 s the me 10 Pro comes with an AI enhancement feature that you can turn on or off you can see how it brightened up the leads green color on the photo on the right it's something I choose to keep switched on to help inject life into my photos especially in low-light conditions but even without the AI enhancement the camera took good photos now jumping into software Xiaomi's mui u 11 is layered on top of android 10 and it was one of the more playful skins i've come across it features bright colors and has some fun touches depending on how you personalize the phone like confetti animations there's also an always-on display and dark mode but there's no after-hour which is one of the things a lot of us love about Android phones but it's not really a big deal since you can always download one off the Google Play Store the me 10 pro has a 40 500 milliamp hour battery which is surprisingly smaller than the battery and side the more affordable me 10 overall I was very happy with the battery power anecdotally it lasted me more than 24 hours with medium usage when the me 10 Pro did run out of battery it took nearly 30 minutes to charge it to 60% in about 55 minutes for it to fully charge one of my favorite things about the me ton Pro is its reverse wireless charging feature it's not a new feature and it's already available on phones like the galaxy s 20 + 1 + 8 Pro but it's Andy tool to have especially when you need an emergency top-up say like charging your air pods before a workout the me 10 Pro comes in two colors alpine white or Solstice gray I was given the latter by Xiaomi and I'm a fan of the metallic gray finish which has an attractive Sheen without being too shiny but it is a fingerprint magnet so it's definitely a phone you'll want to use with a case so those are my thoughts so far about this phone but I'd love to hear what you think about it are you gonna go out and buy it I know this isn't the time where phones are really top of mind but phones are still coming out into the market and we're happy to cover them for you so thank you for watching stay home stay safe and I'll catch you next timethis is Shani's latest flagship yet the meet
