Xiaomi Mi 10T series is here - All you need to know about the budget flagships - Android
The Xiaomi Mi 10T series is now official. Unlike the Mi 9T lineup from last year that consisted of rehashed Redmi phones, the new Mi 10T phones are more premium and in line with existing Mi 10 devices. All three of them bring 5G connectivity and premium hardware, albeit at more affordable prices than Xiaomi’s current Mi 10 flagships.
That said, the phones do make some compromises to achieve that lower price point. They also bring some nifty new features to the table that you won’t find on the Mi 10 phones. Here’s everything you need to know about the Xiaomi Mi 10T series.

The new high-end flagship series from Xiaomi consists of the Mi 10T Lite, the standard Mi 10T, and the Mi 10T Pro.

In terms of design, the Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro are twins. They are also more or less identical in terms of their specs. The Mi 10T Lite, however, switches things up a bit. For starters, it shares a lot of similarities with the Poco X3 with the circular camera housing and center punch hole. It also sports a plastic frame over the aluminum alloy chassis of its siblings.
Both the Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro tack on 6.67-inch FHD+ displays with a punch hole on the top left corner. The screen refresh rate on both phones is set at 144Hz. It’s automatically adjusted according to the content being displayed in order to optimize battery life. For instance, the phones could set the refresh rate at 60Hz for video streaming and crank it up to 144Hz for gaming. The Mi 10T Lite also features the same display, but with a 120Hz refresh rate.
