Xiaomi Mi 10T 6GB

OhoPrice editorial review

The Xiaomi Mi 10T 6GB at 62,999 PKR is a 2020 flagship that still delivers remarkable performance per rupee. The Snapdragon 865 is old but powerful, outpacing the Helio G99-class chips in newer midrange phones for gaming and heavy multitasking, and the 64MP main with a 13MP ultrawide and 5MP macro makes a versatile camera system, while the 20MP front camera is solid. The 6.67-inch 1080x2400 display at about 395 PPI is sharp and bright enough at 650 nits peak, though the listing does not state a refresh rate, so check the actual panel before assuming high refresh. The 5000mAh battery is dependable and the phone is built solidly, but it is also thick at 9.3mm and its 6GB RAM with 128GB storage feel dated. This is a niche buy for performance hunters comfortable with a used 2020 flagship and willing to accept age and bulk. The Samsung Galaxy A17 at 67,499 PKR is 4,500 PKR more and a much newer, more practical device. The A17 offers an AMOLED 90Hz display, a far more efficient Helio G99, a 2025 release with years of support, and a 13MP selfie camera. The Mi 10T answers with the faster Snapdragon 865, a higher-resolution 64MP main, a genuinely useful 13MP ultrawide versus the A17's 5MP, a 20MP front camera and a lower price. If you want maximum raw performance and camera flexibility for less money and do not mind a bulky 2020 device, the Mi 10T is a strong deal; if efficiency, AMOLED quality and a fresh phone matter more, the A17 is the safer choice. Confirm the Mi 10T's IMEI on PTA's DIRBS and check battery health, since a 2020 flagship battery may show significant wear.
