Cameras Explained

Redmi Note 10 Camera

Photos taken from Redmi Note 10 during the camera review lagged some color saturation, which was compensated by the brightness that the handset has to offer. The color gradient was fine. The zoom feature is not very brilliant, though it will work fine for normal usage.

The selfie pictures of Note 10 are a bit on underside, where it over naturally exposes the light to make you look fairer. Which is little away from exposing the natural tone.

Videos are fine. It can take good slow-mo videos without breaking the frames. Tik-Tokers would find that feature benificial.

Redmi Note 10 Pro Camera

On the other side, Redmi Note 10 Pro can handle pictures much better. During the camera review of the Redmi Note 10 Pro, we found the 108 MP camera to be effective. Though it won’t be able to compete with S21 Ultra or Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultras 108 MP camera. That’s mainly due to larger imaging sensors that high-end phones have to offer alongside better lenses.
