The first words that came to my mind upon seeing the Mi 10 Ultra, is “sophisticated look”. By meer perusing its chassis, you can tell Xiaomi means business. This design gives hints that you up for some serious smartphone performance.

For starters, the build property on the Mi 10 ultra comprises of gorilla glass 6 on the rear, gorilla glass 5 upfront, and aluminum on the frame. Which in total sums up to a very premium smartphone build.

On the front panel, we have a 6.67 inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1080 x 2340, a density of 386 PPI, and a 120Hz refresh rate, which is way more than the 90Hz refresh rate on the Xiaomi Mi 10 5G and the Mi 10 Pro 5G.

On the rear, we have a camera module that can be dubbed as one of the most conspicuous on flagship smartphones. This camera module is hot toa vertical array of four cameras and an LED flash.

Aside from the conspicuous camera module, another eye-catcher is the transparent clear glass back covering on the Mi 10 ultra which sorts of gives a briefing on how the internal components are arranged.

However please note that this clear glass back covering is actually an option. Enthusiasts can also get this device in Obsidian black and mercury silver, which are both opaque coverings.

Cameras

The Xiaomi Ultra improves on the cameras we saw on the  Mi 10 pro with features that sets it in place to be compared to the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S20 ultra and the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 ultra.

It may not feature the trending large 108MP camera like the aforementioned, but it does take a less gimmicky approach to offer enthusiasts features that will prove useful in daily dealings.
