Every day there are more and more smartphones with different technical base. Deciding to change our old phone for a newer model, we go to a mobile phone salon, where sales managers will help you choose a smartphone according to your financial capabilities and requests. But as we know, the employees of such salons aim to sell the phone to you more expensive, motivating their choice by the fact that the more expensive, the better. But this is far from true. To do this, we conduct reviews of new products from different manufacturers. Below, we will present you a brief introductory tour of the new Xiaomi Redmi 10x. But first, let's get acquainted with the manufacturer.

It is a Chinese household appliance company. She started her career 10 years ago.It all started with the fact that this organization introduced 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 high technical characteristics and a 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, in addition to this, there are 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 comfort of high quality.
In general, the company has proven itself on the good side. Today, it is recognizable and is in the authority of most consumers. But along with all this, there is one significant drawback - the underdevelopment 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 would not be difficult for anyone to order a phone, but the difficulty is that in this case a guarantee is not given. And all representative stores and departments are located exclusively in China.
The cardboard box is made in an attractive design. Inside it, we meet the smartphone itself, as usual, the instructions for it. Along with this, you will find a charging unit, a USB cable. In addition, the kit comes with a protective case, which, in general, can not always be found in recent novelties. 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 solution, which refers 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 is rectangular with rounded corners. The material from which it is made is tempered glass, and the frame is metal. You don't have to worry about touch marks on your smartphone. Due to the special coating, manufacturers have solved this problem. As for the color design of the case, here the choice was made on three colors, namely:
The last color is classic, and even universal for most models.
Let's analyze the location of the sensors. The fingerprint scanner used to unlock the screen is located on the back. On the front panel is the front camera. It is highlighted by a characteristic cutout in the upper left corner. On the rear panel, the manufacturers removed the 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 chambers is not in the same plane with the lid, but rises above it. This is inconvenient, because The phone must always be placed 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 diagonal impresses with its size, and is 6.53 inches. The smartphone reacts very quickly to the 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 backlight settings.
Due to the frames reduced in thickness, 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 MP. This cannot but please lovers of high-quality photographs of impressive detail.
You can also shoot various panoramas using the 8MP sensor. Well, there are two more sensors with a resolution of 2 megapixels. But despite the low resolution, the sensor takes pictures quite well. The included depth sensor creates photos with the ability to blur the background. The flash is shown here as a double flash.
Let's move on to the possibilities of shooting video
The video shooting capabilities are also impressive with their 4K expansion, while the frequency is 30 frames. Despite these advances, the phone spends a minimal amount of time processing and saving a photo or video that has just been taken.
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 play a role here. Also, when you zoom in on a photo, you won't notice any "grain" or blurry elements. Let's move on to the front sensor.
The rear camera is represented by a resolution of 13 megapixels, while video can be shot at 1080p quality. It also supports HDR. But its possibilities don't end there, you can use the studio light option, the background blur focus option.
The smartphone is equipped with an 8-core processor. When conducting a statistical analysis of this model and the previous one, we find that the performance has increased by one and a half times. The built-in video accelerator increases energy efficiency by 35%, while power - by 20%.
To eliminate the situation with the phone overheating, 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. Built-in is represented by the following parameters: 64 and 128 GB. It is possible to increase the amount of memory at the expense of a memory card up to 256 MB.
The battery capacity is 520 mAh. This indicator ensures operation at an average load without recharging for about 2 days. In addition, you can charge your phone with 22.5W fast charging. Its capabilities provide a full charge of the phone in less than an hour.
