Hey Chaps! What did you think of the Note 10 Pro?? (Note: all tests run with pre release software)
For $279.. do you reckon it's a good deal??
Correction: it uses Samsung E4 OLED, not M4 OLED used in s21 👍
i would buy it if they use a lower megapixel camera rather than wasting money on 108mp and cut down the price even more
I would of bought it but I already got a galaxy note 20 ultra.
@@DOHA104p3 😂
I'd rather pay a bit extra and go for the 8GB variant
@@NomanEFF or pay even more and go with a Asus ROG PHONE 5
I bought this phone in mid 2022 and here in 2023 it's still really a solid phone for its price.
i just bought it
@@iggmeister4137
It's such a good device with software update up to android 13, running MIUI 14. I'm still enjoying mine. And I hope you enjoy yours too.
I bought it 3 years ago
bought this phone 2023, the 8gb/256gb version
Same, 2022 I brought mine, and still solid for this year
This thing bashes many flagships. Nice one.
At 6:40 the mic sounds like a 1000+$ phone omg...superb work

This is just killing Crapsung a72 obviously.
Which ones?

This was the review that sealed the choice for me. Just here to rewatch this video on my Redmi Note 10 Pro and watching this on this 120Hz sAMOLED Display is mind-blowing!!
While watching videos you are automatically in 60Hz Mode ;) just saying...
How do you get to the lock screen if you've setup the fingerprint? Wouldn't the phone just open to the home screen?
@Yatharth Chawhan Just asking homie 😊
@Dr Olawale Ogunlana Very well said.I had this great phone since the 31st of July, and I'm just blown away by what I'm getting,at an affordable price.I really, really love this phone.
I am thinking about getting this phone because my old one died. Do you still think this phone is worth it?
Phones like this just prove there’s no need to spend a grand or more! 🤯

literally zero reason to drop $1k on a smartphone when the mid-range like this one and the Poco X3 Pro and many other phones are just more than enough for what u need, but ye some people like to overspend on something that they don't need/use.
That is absolutely incredible. Two years ago 250 euros would have gotten you a phone with a plastic back, 60hz LCD, no IP rating, and barely passable cameras. Xiaomi absolutely nailed it. I agree with Tom that a telephoto camera would have been much more useful instead the other two, but apart from that, I literally cannot ask for anything else at that price. In fact, I am VERY surprised they managed to put an AMOLED screen, IP rating, and were generous enough to put a micro SD card slot and a 3.5mm jack!? That's unheard of. I know these are basic features that every phone had years ago, but with every manufacturer getting rid of them nowadays, this is a big surprise.
Not to mention the IR feature!
so true
Yes, I like the regular jacks
Totally agree with you about the fact that these features currently are really disappearing, even though not too long ago these features were considered very standard basic features for a cell phone. I am totally surprised how cell maker are removing the microSD card slot and 3.5 mm jack.
I would take a 60hz lcd with a better chip that can give me smooth performence for 4 years than 120hz amoled with slow chip that cant live for 2 years
This Phone called 'The Mid Range Killer'
@@naurinn7613 no it is a "flagship killer" killer
@@komijijiro_9411 Snapdragon 732g is a killer killer? or your joking?
@@ttxsage1513 you know what ? i was just like you 1 or 2 years ago just looking for ram and SoC but you know what ? in 2021 a 732g is totally enought for evrything fast,good battery life management,good camera quality management...
the 870 or 888 are better just for two things : playing fortnite and genshin in ultra 60 fps, and it is 2 or 3 seconds faster than the g model how often do you do that ?for 95% of users the 732g is totally enought
@@komijijiro_9411 Nah i aint complaining about that....I said its not a flagship killer killer..
@@ttxsage1513 so why would i choose a one plus 8t , mi10tpro,s20 fe... for 4 time the price except for the 865 chipset ?there is absolutly no reason so yes it is for me the best budget phone ever made
Picked one of these up in a Black Friday deal for £149. 6GB Ram + 128GB. Amazing phone for the money.
Had mine about 3 months. A new ex-display phone. Cost just £145 for the 6g and 128gb. Can't believe how good the phone is for the price I paid. My first Amoled phone too. Compared to my old LCD phones it's night and day. Great phone. Enjoy! 😁
Sound quality is unbeatable
Currently using the note 11 pro
But I have to say I miss the note 10 pro
Xiaomi is my favorite brand. You know you're getting more than your money's worth with this company. They make less that 5% profit with each item they sell
@@thedaniel6552 No... 5% of the hardware and a little more with software and other services
Bought lots of mi ecosystem products. Quality is very good. The price is affordable. It's bang for the bucks !
I'll stick with their offers for now too....but am conscious enough...don't get too deep into becoming a fan and once the company get's too big, it begins to disappoint!
@@zillafact well thats true, been a fan of samsung since my galaxy Y phone, but now their offerings is not as good as before
totally agree. I used to always go with Samsung then I tried Xiaomi for the first time. now I can confidently say I'll stick with Xiaomi because u just cannot beat their value and what they offer for the buck.
The Only Tech UA-camr who plays COD with guns other than the default M4😂😂😂
I mean.. if that's not worth a sub!
@@Thetechchap bruh 😂😂😂
I am eagerly waiting for your review after finish watching the launch event and congratulations bro for 1 Million Sub
Xiaomi is such a high quality brand, i just bought their ultrabook with 16gb of ram and this phone for 1000£.
Perfect phone! I’ve wanted a smartphone with 108 Mpix camera since Xiaomi released the first one but it and all the other brands too have been too expensive. Now the price is right so I can finally buy one!
Nice to see you are a fan of Mat Watson and Carwow :)
s21ultra and s21 use M5 OLED which is samsungs highest quality. the note ten uses E4 Oled which is the highest grade OLED they provide to other companies
Oh thanks for the clarification. I'll update the pinned comment
Its still a very good display.
Where you can get this kind of info?
@@harryvlogs7833 that's some great and reassuring information. Can you mention the source please
@@aunreza no as I said I forgot which UA-camr it was
Precise, thorough and beautifully done. I was told about Redmi yesterday and I yours was the first video in my research about it. I need not look further. Thank you for such a well done video, you've saved me a lot of time. Bonus: beautiful pics and pleasant tone.
Nice review!!!
Pretty compact and neat.
Loved that sliding the device into pocket thing XD
Really impressive! It will be my top consideration while deciding about a new phone all thanks to it's incredible display! 😍
Thanks, Tom. I think Xiaomi nailed it this time. Should be a great deal for the money.
Hey, Chap, you do really make a lot of good and excellent videos. For the budget phone, the cheapest I had seen till now the iPhone SE, but now this is the one.
bought this at launch during March 2021, been using it daily since then. still works perfectly, surprising since a lot of people had issues with Xiaomi/Redmi phones. and I'm not even using custom ROM or anything. peak Redmi phone if you ask me
Love that I can watch your videos in crispy 4k 60fps.
I ordered my Redmi note 10 pro seeing the review. I have used the Redmi Note 8 Pro and kind of like the MIUI platform (apart from bloatware and odd niggles). In between I used the Pixel 3a but decided to go for the Redmi as upgrade.
I upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy J3 to Redmi Note 10 just this week after seeing a Greek friends phone and watching your video. I am over the moon with the features and speed of Redmi. Thanks for the info, it really has been an upgrade to remember. HRP.
Love Redmi phones. Almost 2 years using Redmi Note 7....this will be my next phone. Best value for money.
I just purchased this phone at the BLACK FRIDAY SALE for only 179 Euros. Best buy of my Smartphone lifetime. Better than my old iPhone and SAMSUNG phones... What a great phone. I just love using it every day now !!! In the meantime the price went back up to 255 Euros.
Thanks for a great review. I've just bought the 6GB 128GB variant direct from Xiaomi UK for £239!
Tom,
Ur a great tech reviewer.
Great at Ur job.
You tell everyone what they really want to know.
Ur passion, knowledge, enthusiasm shine through.
Great job m8 👍
Using for 2+ years now,no complaints.
Same mine is 6GB Ram variant
I was really confused which budget phone to get and you made me wanna get this one..I made my choice , thanks to you 😍
You are late with the embargo! Unsubscribing! But wow such a great video! Subscribed again!
Haha what a rollercoaster of emotions 😅
Linus,will you be checking the Redmi Note 10 pro soon
Insert “oh no, anyways” meme😂
@@montygill2835 he's a joke, he never took Xiaomi phones seriously, i prefer small UA-camrs who review the phone like they're going to use it, not like Linus
Hahahaha
Until now I'm using my Redmi Note 10 Pro and has not issues with it. Great phone!
Nowadays Flagship phones are removing features, I love Xiaomi bringing those features for far more less!
Certainly, I find IR and 3.5 jack more useful that wireless charging, reverse charging, facial recog and thumbprint stealer.
of those features I have on my phone I use none of them.
And reverse charging?? Really?
So I'm goo g to take the device that never has enough charge already and sap its power to charge something else? ? 🤯
I just can't figure that one out.
Why not add something useful, like a laser level, laser distance measuring or touchless thermometer feature.
THAT could be useful.
@@rberinger7647 bluetooth stuff is nice, but just getting to use normal headphones is so much better for me. Less delay and stuff. IK that bluetooth is getting better but I kinda wish they being some stuff back (flagship phones)
Xiaomi really out done themselves with the 120hz amoled display...
The 120hz is nice to have, but seriously I'll probably just set mine to 60hz to conserve precious battery power in everyday use. It might come in handy occasionally.
But I play games on playstation and Xbox, not on my phone.
I watch movies and sports on my huge TV, not on my phone.
So I'm actually a bit dubious about the value of the 120 capability on such a small screen.
I'd actually rather pay less and get 60hz but I do recognize the benefit of the AMOLED panel, just not the increased scan rate.
@@rberinger7647 Have you tried 120hz? It' so much smoother navigating around your phone. Scrolling and animations are much smoother, feels like you have a much more premium phone. For movies it's not of any use. For gaming, it's nice when playing FPS I guess, but I don't game on phone either. For me at least, it's absolutely worth some less battery life for the premium smooth phone feeling with 120hz.
@@rberinger7647 trust me, 120hz is way way way smoother than 60hz, you would want to just scroll all day just to feel the smoothness
Once you do high refresh rate, you'll never go back.
ITS A SHAME THEY DO NOT "OUT DO THEMSEVES" WITH SUPPORT! TERRIBLE COMPANY
Year 2021 definitely belongs to Xiaomi. Still waiting for mi 11 ultra 😀
Great review as always. Thanks
Is out now.
@@Emperorelnino tables turned
honestly I was a bit worried about which phone to buy. This video sorted it all out. Thanks mate. imma sub for that.
A great review plus a great view of the house.. love it! 😋😊
Bought the note 10 pro and I have to say I'm very impressed with the phone
I just bought this phone after this video, the best budget phone ever, love the 120 hertz and amoled display. thanks tech cap
Laggy phone Im sure with 120hz and poor processor
The audio recording of this phone is very good. And I would most prefer 1080p video recording because of how balance it is, compared to 4K video recording. Nice video by the way 👍🏼
surprisingly great upgrade from last year's note9pro. Thanks for the insight.
To be completely honest,
Your Reviews of the Midrange decices are by the far the best ones I've ever seen.
Excellent Job Man!
I kind of hope they have 256 gb options, but with dedicated slot card, it's really acceptable. 🥰
Nice video. Thumb up!
One question: does it come with pre-installed anti scratch on the screen?
Thanks for the review! I really like the spec! What about amoled display color accuracy? are the all colors accurate looks/feels to your eye? Did you feel any color too much bright like, Red / green/ blue is too much or something like that? Thank you
Not to forget FM Radio :) Love it
It's really incredible how their phone are getting cheaper every year and features packed while other company are pushing out little to no innovation devices and dare charge us $1000.
iPhone that is why I don't follow the crowd many people understand apple jack prices just because of the name
Absolutely well done and definitely keep it up!!! 👍👍👍👍👍 Additionally, can you please tell me the name of your colourful wallpaper??? Thank you.
Am really impressed by your way of explaining n demonstrating the features of Redmi Note 10 Pro Max...👌👌👏👏
Very nice n informative video 👌👍
this phone just got a price cut in Germany to €180 (128gb/6gb variant) just a few days ago and its still probably the best phone under €200 even today almost 2 years later.
Definitely worth for upgrading😍
Great review “Tech champ” (a compliment, not sarcasm...😀).
Friends, just to reiterate, this is the first time we have a (120 HTz + Amoled) in the mid range segment....wow...!!
Xiaomi / Redmi is really a mid range king 🤴
You've sold it to me. I've just ordered one. Who really needs 5G? I'm an old fart so it's absence isn't going to impact on me. Battery life, fast charging, bright AMOLED 1080 x 2400 resolution screen, the external memory card option, high res main camera, close focussing/macro, decent video stabilisation at 1080p (that's all I need) and the headphone jack ... I'm more than happy. Thanks for your very helpful review.
Exactly. and its amazing build and look plus the cheap price.
My A52 5G is much better than your crappy rd note 10 pro...yeah enjoy thay crappy thing
@@danialputra9298 your A52 is trash, you were robbed in daylight. embarrassing, you don't even have half the features that I have and you still paid way more, hilarious. you got f**CKed literally.
Congrats on your 1 Mil1💙
But mate, Xiaomi really needs do some work with their software and then this phone would be absolute killer!
thanks man!
If you haven't heard Xiaomi india head manu kumar jain said that miui 12.5 would help you remove almost all bloatware from Xiaomi phones excluding the camera gallery dialer messages etc
@@farzeenahmed7246 Dude, do u know what Bloatware is?
AMOLED screen with 120Hz?? such a game changer 🙌🏻
Welcome to 2019
@@mikimuzika In 2019 that would be more like Sci-fi spec for over $1k
@@krystianstepien5835 wrong, biggest issue with 120hz was and is battery consumption
@@mikimuzika that's why Apple wasn't that courage as they claim to be so far ;)
It depends if it flickers like all the shitty Samsung.
Well nice review - Was hoping it would option 60/90/120hz, but seeing the battery drain difference is not so dramatic, it's all good.
It looks way better than my current HTC U11. I feel like you convinced me to go for this one.
I have to say I think it's a great midrange phone. Great specs and just a few things left out which, in my opinion, are just the right things left out.
@Zack King if this was my video I would have spelled them all out but this is @thetechchap s video and he mentions the points that are missing throughout (which I agree with) so I would say, watch the video and find out 😊👍🏼
Great upgrade. Planing on getting one as I'm still sitting on my Redmi Note 5 Pro.
But... what I would like to see instead of a clutter of useless zoom, ultrawide or macro lenses is one good main shooter with OIS.
Yes... The phone I was waiting for... Many features yet not expensive... Will definitely buy soon
What a GREAT review! I'm subscribed!
Has most of what we need and we know for sure we won’t be overpaying for nothing or what we don’t need..
Great review! You have so beautiful room!
Excellent review with nice visuals we felt very real just like it's with in my hands and good information i like very much yr review what exactly i want you gave thank you
I ordered this phone and today i can pick it up and after watching this video I CAN'T WAIT!! 😍😍😍😍
Those cameras look superb!
I see still says that super irritating "zoom to fill" message box when you zoom.
What wide lens do you guys recommend with this phone for livestreaming?
You're amazing! Enjoyed watching every second of your review :)) thanks, man
Honestly, when he tested the recording, looks better than a Gopro.
But this one shakes when u walk around with it.
Great video! Xiaomi had a perfect timing, I was going to buy Nord this weekend but now I must wait for this gold.
Are you in a hurry? Why don't you wait for the next gen NORD?
@@VihangaDananjaya1214 Next gen NORD still Expensive than this
@@hangnavorn5416 Yeah exactly, it's a cheap deal. And I have a 5 year old Huawei that's breaking down. I don't know if I have enough patience, but we will see.
@@blueish2 My MiMax2 have battery and DND pop out issues
It's 5.5 YO. Luckily found an online store overseas that just restock. On the spot, I ordered one.This phone is hot. Sold out everywhere !
i was kinda waiting for 60fps video samples as well but yeah ... thats life
Your studio flat is really kool...Love it!!
Weird thing is when I saw the poco x3 which cost around £180 in the UK, I thought to myself I wish they had made a couple of upgrades and I'd be willing to pay a little extra. For example swap the 120Hz LCD display for an amoled one, bump up the chipset a little and improve the camera slightly and they probably could've kept the phone below the £300 mark. This redmi note 10 pro is basically that upgraded poco x3 I wanted (doesn't have an improved chipset though :( )
Seems that the 10 Pro is just 1 or 1.5 gens Behind the $1200 Samsung flagship. Not sure how that's an issue at this price. You should obviously just buy the Samsung flagship rather than complain about lack of features in a $300 phone, right?
Very nice phone and even nicer video. You should review good phones from $100 with your honest thoughts so that we won't make mistakes. This phone seems way better than mid range phones from SAMSUNG and Nord N10, N100 from OnePlus. I hope OnePlus will do better with the upcoming phones of the NORD series.
perfect video. your subtle smile face makes me happy. keep going bro
Just got one as a secondary to my OnePlus 7T. But thinking of making this my primary because damn this device is good. A lot of community developer backing too.
Have used this phone for about 3 monts and the experience has been great to be honest. It's snappy, the screen is amazing and camera is really good for the price. My previous phone was note 8t and this phone is noticably better in all aspects.
How are the pictures when you're outside shooting from a distance?
@@615BlackBarbie i think the pictures are really good considering the price. Post processing isnt on samsung s20 level, but it's really good. The main difference with high end phones is low light performance, mainly videos. For the price, the low light pictures are decent, i was surprised how good this camera is considering the price. Few months have gone by and im still really happy with this phone, this kind of overall performance shouldn't be possible if you consider the price. The speakers are loud and clear also. My next phone is going to be a xiaomi phone for sure, its hard to beat that experience in this price class, I'm amazed that you get so much for that cheap.
@@Doperidexxx Thank you for the response. Well needed. I hope you have a great day
I have been using the Note 8 for about well over 11 months now and I was looking to upgrade but held back because many of the midrange phones which have an OLED display come a bit pricey. I am looking forward to this one it looks great and can't wait to have it.
Wow, you kept your phone an entire 11 months before upgrade?
Can I have your old one please??
@@rberinger7647 well over !
Thank you. I still think this phone hits all the spots. What can I say more?
Thanks for a very realise review.
Definitely going to be checking in regularly on you,
My bb bought me one and will be arriving soon. Thanks for the review. I'm so excited!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic. Love this. Give samsung and apple a run for their money for over charging us

You are a Tech Champ ! Great video, thanks !
Great video man! A lot of my friends have been getting into Xiaomi, maybe I will join them now haha. Gustavo Woltmann
I really hope they optimize Miui. I am using redmi 9 and it's a laggy mess just because of no optimization the specs are really good.
This phone actually has adaptive refresh rate, I've seen it in a video where if you don't use they display, the refresh rate turns to 60hz to save battery
I've been using the phone for the past 2 weeks, never felt that. Can you provide a way(software) to test it?
@@Apurbo_ from what I remember it was adaptive depending on if you actually touched the screen as in if you touched it would turn into 120hz but when there is no touching it drops to 60hz, but i really do not know if it is a 100 percent true.
I'm really loving it so far! Have you used it with the case yet? It does have an annoying USB C flap haha!
How do you change the pixel binning from 9-1 back to full high resolution mode so I can take 108mp photos rather than 12mp? The same question goes for the selfie camera?
Thanx for uploading.. In India youtubers are not uploading the unboxing/review bcoz of embargo 😂😂😂
Still using my Xiaomi Mi Max 3 here and it's brilliant. Big battery, big screen, plenty capable processor. I swear the flagship specs, especially CPU's are overkill for a phone. For UA-cam, email, FB, messaging, music & light gaming this phone is perfect. Anything heavier and I have better suited devices.
Yeah right
Honestly bro,it's still very solid
@@BrownIbitamunoSuoala Yup, still rocking it man. Still going great. The only thing that's missing is wireless charging which is no real biggie and Android updates which would be good but Android 10 is still fairly up to date and all the apps can update so no biggie either. It's just a great phone. :)
Awesome review, thanks to you I placed my order today. What's the name of that sword game you played there? Really want to check that out as well.
That photo of the tv with that amazing orange light is very nice actually (6:17)
Definitely a great phone. Thanks for showing some real time footage and the gaming prowess of the phone. Great review mate and keep up the good work 👍😊
Argos are selling these for £149 now in the UK. If you can live with last year's model and 4G, I'd say that's a bargain. In fact, I've just ordered one!
Was going to get this, but argos put the price up, about 2 weeks ago.
Excellent video. The Tech Chap is easily one of the best tech reviewers on UA-cam.
