Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Price in Nepal: Rs. 44,999
Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite Overview
Design
Mi Note 10 Lite looks similar to the Mi Note 10 with its curved body but its camera setup is slightly different. The curved glass back and front surely look appealing but it’s more prone to fall damage than the flat body. Well, it’s at least protected by Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and back.
While its design is quite simple, it surely looks premium. Also, they have gone with a conventional dew-drop notch rather than a pop-up camera or punch-hole design.
To be fair, the Mi Note 10 Lite looks good but it’s not totally unique.
Display
The curved display is a 6.47 inches AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 1080*2340. It also flaunts an impressive 87.8% screen to body ratio and it supports HDR10 as well.
Since it’s an AMOLED display, we will get more vibrant colors than an IPS panel and deeper blacks. This will make content viewing and multimedia experience much better.
Hardware
Under the hood, Mi Note 10 Lite is powered by Snapdragon 730G with Octa-core (2×2.2 GHz Kryo 470 Gold & 6×1.8 GHz Kryo 470 Silver) CPU and Adreno 618 GPU.
Snapdragon 730G is an exceptional mid-range chipset. With this, Mi Note 10 Lite should have no problem handling games and multitasking. But, 730G is not exactly an upgrade over the 720G.
Snapdragon 730G uses new Kryo 470 cores based on Cortex A76 while the 720G uses Kryo 465. But, 720G cores are clocked slightly higher at 2.3 GHz. Also, both of them use the same GPU; Adreno 618. But, Qualcomm claims 730G has boosted GPU speed.
However, the recent benchmarks have shown that Snapdragon 720G has better performance than the 730G. So, even though its a new chipset 720G boasts identical performance to the 730G. But, 730G has the upper hand when it comes to camera performance due to the better image processor.
Furthermore, it uses 6GB RAM and 128GB UFS 2.1 internal storage. 6GB of RAM is more than enough for any tasks and USF2.1 will also help in smooth performance.
Camera
The camera is the only department where Mi Note 10 Lite differs from the Mi Note 10. Mi Note 10 Lite has the 64MP Sony IMX 686 sensor; predecessor of Sony IMX 586 sensor.
IMX 686 sensor provides you more pixel count than the IMX 586 and has a bigger sensor. So, naturally, it should provide you better low light photos. For videos, this supports video up to 4k@30 fps, and 60fps videos are capped at 1080p.
Along with it, Mi Note 10 Lite gets an 8MP ultra wide-angle sensor, 5MP depth sensor, and 2MP macro sensor on the rear. Whereas, it has a single 16MP camera on the front.
The quad-camera setup is common these days but I would have preferred a higher megapixel ultra-wide sensor instead of many cameras.
Also, the 2MP macro sensor doesn’t look too appealing when you can find a 5MP macro camera and 12MP ultra wide-angle camera on the likes of Samsung A71 and A51.
Battery
Mi Note 10 features an impressive 5260 mAh battery along with 30W fast charging.
The battery capacity is impressive but what’s more impressive is it’s fast charging. And, of course, we get a USB Type-C 1.0 to top it all off.
OS and Other Features
Moving on, it runs on the latest version of Android with Android 10 and MIUI 11. MIUI is fast and fluid but everyone has a preference and I’m not a huge fan of MIUI but its good.
Mi Note 10 retains the beloved 3.5mm headphone jack and it has an optical in-display fingerprint sensor.
It also has Bluetooth 5.0 along with aptX HD and aptX Adaptive support.
