The Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra was officially released last week with a starting price of 5299 yuan (650 €). The smartphone immediately sold out within 10 minutes of being put on sale, with an income of 400 million yuan, about 48 million euros.
Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra: Let's find out how the super flagship is made!
Well, this afternoon, the Chinese brand has published the official teardown of the device. Let's find out (literally) the device!
The teardown begins, as always, by removing the rear back cover. The first thing we see is the NFC antenna and the wireless charging coil, which is the famous coil that supports a 50W wireless fast charge and that allows us to recharge a 4500 mAh battery to 100% in just 40 minutes.
Once the coil is removed, we notice a 4500 mAh double butterfly cell battery, which occupies a third of the internal space and which as we know supports 120W wired fast charging. In this case the device can be recharged from 0 to 100% in 23 minutes.
Moving on to the camera module which also occupies a good part of the internal space. We find, from top to bottom: the 48MP periscope lens (Sony IMX586 sensor and 120X zoom), followed by the 12MP telephoto lens (focal aperture f / 2.0 and size of 1 / 2.55 inches), main camera from 48MP (48 / 1 inch Omnivision OV1.32C sensor) and finally a 20MP ultra wide angle lens (focal aperture f / 2.2 and focal length of 12 mm equivalent to 128 °).
The front camera is instead a 5MP Samsung S3K2T20 sensor.
While next to it we find a combined speaker and headset.
In the two photos above we see the linear motor for vibrations and the lower speaker.
This image instead shows us the motherboard with a layer of graphene and a layer of copper for heat dissipation
On the motherboard we also find LPDDR5 RAM, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 as CPU, a Qualcomm X55 5G modem, UFS3.1 internal memory and WCD9380 audio decoder.
The Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra supports Wi-Fi 6, using a Qualcomm QCA6391 chip and as we can see in the image below, there is another large layer of thermally conductive graphite, as well as a large plate for a VC liquid cooling.
Finally, we have the under-screen fingerprint module manufactured by Goodix.
