In recent days we have read of several speculations that gave rise to the existence of two variants of the Xiaomi CC9 Pro, known outside China as Mi Note 10. Specifically there was talk of a variant with Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G and one with Snapdragon 855 Plus. Well, today the Asian brand has finally put an end to these rumors confirming that there will be only one variant and that this will equip the cheapest Snapdragon 730G .
Xiaomi Mi Note 10: CPU confirmed and new notification animation revealed
For those who are not aware of it, we remind you that the Snapdragon 730G is a medium-high end processor capable of reaching more than 220 thousand points on the AnTuTu benchmark app; while on GeekBench we have a single-core 2552 score and multi-core 7049.
The Qualcomm CPU is composed of eight Kryo 470 cores with a maximum clock of 2,2Ghz, coupled with an Adreno 618 GPU, several DSP (digital signal processing) technologies and a Qualcomm Spectra 350 image signal processor. The latter is the one that will allow the smartphone to take pictures of the resolution of 108MP, or that of the Samsung ISOCELL Bright HMX sensor that we will find aboard the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 / CC9 Pro. In fact, the modern Qualcomm chipset with production process a 8nm supports photo capture up to a maximum resolution of 192MP, so you should have no problems with the Samsung sensor.
According to data published by Xiaomi, the Snapdragon 730G would be about the 35% better performing in terms of computing power and the 25% faster in graphics than the previous generation processors. Finally, as you may already know, the "G" in "730G" stands for Gaming, so the chipset has been optimized to run video games to the fullest for a smoother gaming experience.
In addition to confirming the CPU, Xiaomi also confirmed that the Note 10 will have a very nice feature. In fact, the smartphone supports a light animation on the sides of the screen which, as we already know, will be curved. This means that when we receive a notification with the screen off, two light strips with breath effect will appear on the sides. In addition to being pleasing to the eye, this feature is also useful for those who prefer to keep the smartphone with the screen facing down for privacy reasons as it will always be possible to see the light produced.
Finally, let's remember quickly that the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 is the smartphone that will come with a total of five rear cameras and double optical stabilization, including the main one from 108MP, a secondary one from 20MP with ultra wide angle lens, one from 12MP with telephoto lens, 5MP with 5X optical zoom and one from 2MP with macro lens.
