With the Xiaomi Mi Note 10, Xiaomi has become the first manufacturer to launch a 108-megapixel camera phone. But this is not its only claim to being one of the best camera phones around; it also sets a new record by having five rear cameras, too. Even the battery is an over-the-top affair that is likely to power you through the longest days with juice to spare.

In terms of imaging, the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 excites us on two fronts: its zoom and pixel-count. It features two telephoto cameras, one with a 2x optical zoom and a 12MP resolution, and another with a 5x optical zoom and a 5MP resolution, the latter loaded up with OIS.
