Display
The Redmi Note 10 series has received a significant upgrade on the display front when compared to the Redmi Note 9 lineup from last year. All phones in the series now feature AMOLED displays, with a resolution of 2400 x 1080 pixels, 4,500,000:1 contrast ratio, and 100% DCI-P3 coverage. But there are some minor differences.
For instance, only the vanilla Redmi Note 10 featuring a 60Hz refresh rate panel. The Redmi Note 10 Pro and Note 10 Pro Max both feature a high refresh rate 120Hz panel that has a 240Hz touch sampling rate. The 6.43-inch AMOLED DotDisplay on the regular Redmi Note 10 offers a peak brightness of 1,100nits and it features Corning Gorilla Glass 3.
On the other hand, the 6.67-inch AMOLED DotDisplays on the Redmi Note 10 Pro and Pro Max offer a peak brightness of 1,200nits, Gorilla Glass 5, and HDR10 certification. Both the premium models also come with SGS Eye Care display certification.
SoC, RAM, and Storage
The vanilla Redmi Note 10 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 678 chip, which features an Adreno 612 GPU. The SoC is coupled with up to 6GB of LPDDR4x RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. As you would’ve probably guessed by now, the Redmi Note 10 Pro and Pro Max feature the same SoC — the Snapdragon 732G, which features an Adreno 618 GPU. The devices come with up to 8GB of RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage
Cameras
All three phones in the Redmi Note 10 lineup feature quad-camera setups on the back, but they have different primary and macro sensors. The regular Redmi Note 10 features a 48MP f/1.79 primary camera, an 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide camera with a 118° FoV, a 2MP f/2.4 macro camera, and a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor. The Redmi Note 10 Pro packs a 64MP f/1.79 primary camera, the same 8MP ultra-wide camera, a 5MP f/2.4 telemacro sensor with auto-focus capabilities, and a 2MP f/2.4 depth sensor.
The top-of-the-line Redmi Note 10 Pro Max has the most capable primary camera, featuring a 108MP f/1.9 sensor. But other than that, it features the same camera hardware as the Redmi Note 10 Pro. Over on the front, the Redmi Note 10 features a 13MP f/2.45 selfie shooter.
The Redmi Note 10 Pro and Pro Max, on the other hand, come with a 16MP f/2.45 selfie camera. All three devices come with some cool new software features to help users make the most out of the cameras. These include Night Mode 2.0, a Vlog mode, a Long Exposure mode, Video Pro Mode, and Dual Video mode.
Battery & Charging
The battery capacity and fast charging capabilities on all three devices are roughly the same. The Redmi Note 10 packs a 5,000mAh battery that offers 33W wired fast charging support with the included charger. The Note 10 Pro packs a 5,020mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging, and the Note 10 Pro Max also features the same 5,020mAh unit that supports 33W fast charging with the included charger.
Connectivity
In terms of connectivity features, all three devices in the Redmi Note 10 series feature a USB Type-C port for charging and data syncing. They also include an IR blaster, a 3.5mm headphone jack, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and a triple-SIM card tray. All three phones are 4G capable, which was to be expected given their affordable price point.
MIUI 12 with Android 11
On the software front, the Redmi Note 10 series comes with MIUI 12 based on Android 11.
