3.4/5

Xiaomi Mi 10S is a nice upgrade over the base model of the Mi 10 series smartphone sold by the Chinese smartphone maker. It features a lightweight plastic body and frame construction, with the rear panel featuring a smooth matte finish in its white and grey variants. The blue version is different thanks to a special gradient design that looks like the reflection of water on the bottom of a swimming pool. The front panel is flat and features the latest Gorilla Glass protection. It also gets a tiny punch-hole cutout on the top centre that features the selfie sensor, while the optical fingerprint sensor is hidden beneath the display.
