Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime+ 5G Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Xiaomi Redmi 10 Prime+ 5G - a smartphone is not for everyone

The love of the Chinese company Xiaomi to expand the range of products sold knows no bounds. Even the most dedicated fans are sometimes lost in the variety of phones and accessories presented. And even though almost everyone deserves attention and even praise, some gadgets are at least controversial. This is exactly what the hero of today's review has become, upsetting with truncated functionality.

If we regard the novelty in terms of design, then the buyer will receive rather positive emotions. Yes, the budget of the phablet is manifested in the plastic of the case, the outdated design of a simple 5-megapixel front camera, but the appearance of the unit also has pluses. These are reasonable display frames for the price category, and a variety of beautiful colors of the rear panels, and a side fingerprint scanner, and an interesting block of the main cameras. The 6.58-inch IPS-screen came out quite high quality against the background of the decisions of opponents. It combines both a 90Hz image refresh rate and a high FullHD + resolution. You can only criticize the margin of brightness, because it is not always realistic to see anything on the IPS display in direct sunlight.

The Mediatek Dimensity 700 CPU is a time-tested 5G chipset, ready with 4GB/6GB RAM and Mali G57MC2 graphics card to bring the smoothness of MIUI (Android 12) skin and most apps. The only exceptions will be the most resource-intensive games, with which the processor copes mediocrely. For example, Genshin Impact, beloved by millions, will grieve with friezes and lags, and the graphics will not amaze with their beauty. The size of the internal storage was a solid 128GB , in case of a shortage of which, you can use the help of a slot for MicroSD cards. True, you will have to forget about two SIM-cards. Autonomy is standard for Android-smartphones of the developer. The 5000mAh battery lasts for a couple of days, but you need to charge it for almost three hours.

50 and 2-megapixel photomodules are not bad for the value segment, but the clarity and detail of the pictures will largely depend on the experience of the photographer. The ability to work with light, find a suitable place for shooting and a strong grip of a mobile assistant will help you get brilliant shots for social networks, while in other cases there may be an abundance of blur or noise. Stereo sound and a separate headphone jack are an excellent reason for music lovers to take a closer look at the device, but the lack of NFC contactless payments is a critical disadvantage for almost any modern user. Therefore, even the infrared port, support for 5G networks and a list of other advantages are not able to fully compensate for such a shortcoming and turn the gadget into a real hit.
