Design

The leaked images of the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro hint that both the devices would come with curved OLED display sharing its space with a punch-hole style selfie camera on the top of it. Both the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro would come with an AI-enabled quad-camera setup to meet primary photography requirements. But the Mi 10 Pro would feature an additional sensor to offer even better image quality.

Camera

A bunch of earlier rumors claimed the primary sensor of the Mi 10 primary-camera module would come with 108 MP to impress the photography buff. Xiaomi has to compete with Samsung and Huawei in the photography segment as both the smartphone makers are just about to unveil their own flagships with improved camera quality. Moving one step further, Samsung is tipped to launch a special edition for photography buffs called Galaxy S20 Ultra.
