Every day there are more and more smartphones with different technical base. Deciding to change our old phone to a newer model, we go to a cellular salon, where sales managers will help you choose a smartphone according to available financial capabilities and requests. But as we know, the employees of such salons pursue the goal of selling the phone to you at a higher price, motivating their choice by the fact that the more expensive the better. But this is far from the case. To do this, we conduct reviews of new products from different manufacturers. Below, we will present you with a short introductory tour of the new Xiaomi Redmi 10x. But first, let's get to know the manufacturer.
Content
Is a Chinese home appliance manufacturing company. She started her activity 10 years ago. It all started when this organization presented the Android MIUI firmware to the world. And a year after the opening, the first phone was already released. It was distinguished from competitors by its high technical characteristics and relatively low price. A year later, a smartphone appeared with even more powerful performance and improved graphics. But not only smartphones have become the hallmark of the company, there are also a number of first-class gadgets. So, in 2019, manufacturers showed the world a smart blanket. The essence of his work lies in the fact that he adapts to the person, or rather to the temperature of his body, and builds optimal high quality comfort.
In general, the company has established itself on a good side. Today, it is recognizable and credible with most consumers. But along with all this, there is one significant disadvantage - incompleteness in terms of distribution of products on the territory of our country. Most smartphones are purchased through various online shopping sites. It would seem that now it will not be difficult for anyone to order a phone, but the difficulty is that a guarantee is not given in this case. And all representative stores and departments are located exclusively in China.
The cardboard box has an attractive design. Inside it, we find the smartphone itself, as usual, instructions for it. Along with this you will find a charging block, USB cable. In addition, the set comes with a protective case, which, in general, is not always possible to find in new products of recent times. The box contains a warranty card from the store where you purchased the phone.
Taking a look at the model, we will notice that in its design decision, which belongs to the classic style, it is very similar to the previous model of this line, model number 9. Let's take a closer look at the smartphone.
The body has a rectangular shape with rounded corners. The material from which it is made is tempered glass and the frame is metal. You don't need to worry about touch marks on your smartphone. With a special coating, manufacturers have solved this problem. As for the color scheme of the case, here the choice was settled on three colors, namely:
The latter color is classic, and even universal for most models.
Let's analyze the location of the sensors. The fingerprint used to unlock the screen is located on the back. The front panel houses the front camera. It is highlighted with a distinctive cut in the upper left corner. On the back panel, manufacturers have taken out camera sensors (we'll talk about them below). Here we note one point that can bring inconvenience in terms of an unstable position on the surface. Those. the vertical line with the cameras is not in the same plane with the cover, but rises above it. This is inconvenient because the phone must always be laid face down.
The size of the smartphone is quite comfortable, but it is heavy in weight. These parameters will be presented below in the table with characteristics.
The screen size is impressive at 6.53 inches. The smartphone responds very quickly to screen touches. The screen supports the Full HD option. As for the resolution, here the parameter is as follows - 2340 x 1080. If you have become a happy user of this model, you will have access to more than one thousand options for lighting settings.
Due to the thinner bezels, you may get the impression that the screen is, in principle, frameless. The screen also impresses with its clarity and color reproduction in bright light such as the sun.
It is worth noting here that the camera combines four modules. The main camera here is 48 megapixels. This is good news for those who like high-quality photos with impressive detail.
You can also shoot different panoramas with the 8MP sensor. Well, there are two more sensors with a resolution of 2 megapixels. But despite the small resolution, the sensor takes pictures with high quality. The available depth sensor creates photos with the ability to blur the background. The flash is presented here as double.
Moving on to video shooting capabilities
The video shooting capabilities are also striking with their 4K expansion, while the frequency is 30 frames. Despite these advances, the phone spends a minimum amount of time processing and saving the photo or video just captured.
It is logical to assume that all your photos will be of the highest quality, while the colors will not be distorted. And if most smartphones provide good quality under good lighting conditions, this parameter does not matter here. Also, when you enlarge the photo, you will not notice any "grain" or blurred elements. Let's move on to the front sensor.
The rear camera is presented with a resolution of 13 megapixels, while video can be shot at 1080p quality. In this case, there is support for HDR. But its possibilities don't end there, you can use the studio light option, the focus option with a blurred background.
The smartphone is equipped with an 8-core processor. When conducting statistical analysis of this model and the previous one, we will find that the performance has increased by one and a half times. The built-in video accelerator increases energy efficiency by 35%, while the power by 20%.
To eliminate the situation with overheating of the phone, the manufacturers installed graphene in several layers.
Considering the amount of memory, we also note satisfactory characteristics. RAM is presented in two versions, namely 4 and 6 GB. The built-in one is represented by the following parameters: 64 and 128 GB. There is a possibility to increase the amount of memory by means of a memory card up to 256 MB.
The battery capacity is 520 mAh. This indicator provides work at an average load without recharging for about 2 days. Alternatively, you can charge your phone with 22.5W fast charging. Its capabilities ensure that your phone is fully charged in less than an hour.
