Xiaomi showcases Mi 10 camera samples as it confirms MWC 2020 attendance
Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun has been peppering Weibo in the last few days with details about the Mi 10 series. While we have already seen some informal shots taken with what was probably the Mi 10 Pro, Jun has now published a more official set of images. The images, which we have included below, showcase the Mi 10 series' four rear-facing cameras. As predicted, the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro will feature a 108 MP and 1/1.33-inch main sensor, along with what look like examples of ultra-wide-angle and macro lenses.
Additionally, Frederic Van Strydonck has uploaded a video highlighting the video capabilities of the Mi 10, which you can watch here. Incidentally, the Mi 10 series will also support High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIF), which offers a 2.39x higher compression rate than JPEG without any perceived loss in image quality.
Separately, Xiaomi has confirmed that it will be attending MWC 2020 in Barcelona at the end of the month. While other companies have withdrawn from the conference because of the ongoing coronavirus epidemic, Xiaomi still plans to launch its latest smartphones and other hardware. However, it will take precautions to prevent the spread of the virus. The full statement can be read below.
