I imported it from China and it's worthy, I'm satisfied with it, and I'm happy that i didn't buy the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 coz of Exynos 👍🏻

Every company in 2021: We won't include a charging brick in the box!
Xiaomi: Hold my 120 Watt super fast charger!😂😂😂😂

Living in China, I went by the Xiaomi store yesterday and saw this in the store. I immediately fell in love with it, sold my Galaxy Fold, and bought the 12g ram, 256gb storage version.

It's an absolute joy so far, and I'm especially enjoying the little touches that Xiaomi has put into the phone. To give an example, I often run a VPN to watch YouTube in China. While the VPN is running, wechat (think Chinese snapchat) often gives server access failure messages. On my Galaxy Fold and Huawei P40 Pro, these would just be generic messages with no indication of which app was causing them. On the Mi 10 Ultra, it actually says which app is causing the error message. It's a small but welcome touch.

Other things of note on this phone are the fantastic cameras, excellent haptic motor, beautiful design aesthetic, etc.

All in all, I'm very happy with the phone. It's actually been a long time since I've used a Xiaomi phone and I'm really quite surprised that this is a Xiaomi phone and not a Samsung or Huawei, the difference in quality between this phone and the phones Xiaomi used to make is just unbelievable.

If you charge it without checking the screen it'll charge in 23 mins.

What a perfect looking phone of 2020 ♥️ but i wonder why its not coming in global market ? Even its price is perfect as well 🙄

I was waiting for this! I want to buy a new phone, I was going for a OnePlus but after seeing that they are now trying to follow Samsung’s trends, it was a turn off for me... but then I found this amazing phone and it got me hyped again!

[morjithmattapalli]

Waiting for this review...
My favourite phone of year..
Love from india..

[Corkoth]

it really sucks that the display isn't 1440p. i like to watch videos in that quality when available. but that looks like the only possible complaint from me. amazing looking device.

[lozanzana]

I wish I could have this Ultra version!

[Raison_d-etre]

There'd be so much more competition and innovation if the U.S. weren't killing off Chinese companies that try to sell here.

I can see that you are using the Rubik/Rubik-Regular font on your phone. That is my go-to font as well on my Xiaomi phones.

[ThompYT]

how did you switch the software to global? Got any tips?

[kodaph]

For only 700USD, this is the "beast" flagship. Only for China though.

[Jemolian]

Waiting for the 10T Pro for comparison before buying one

Left my note 7 redmi for now 20 ultra. I miss the phone's feel and performance was a monster big the photos were awful. Kinda intrigued by the brand as its probably the most sturdy phone I've ever owned. Bravo. Great built phones

[asgardgoauld]

I imported this phone to Singapore. Worth my money as the phone is extremely fast and charges quickly under 25 minutes. Where else can you find 16GB RAM + 512MB storage phone in other phones?

That's monster charging byfar🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
