The detailed camera review of the Redmi Note10 Pro. The camera module on this Redmi Note 10 Pro looks exactly like the one on the Note 10 Pro Max.
The only change is it has a 64-megapixel primary camera as opposed to the 108 megapixels one on the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max. Other than the silver ring around the main camera on the Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, the Camera modules on both of them look exactly the same.
Since the only difference between this and the Note 10 Pro Max is the main camera, many people want to know if the 64-megapixel camera on this phone is any good, or should they spend the extra Rs.3000 and get the Max.
So I will look at close to images and video samples from all the cameras on this Note 10 Pro, and see if they are any good.
Camera specs Note 10 Pro
some of the key new features added to the camera app on this phone. This increases the interface by adding features. The primary camera gets a 64-megapixel SamsungGW3 sensor with an F/1.9 aperture and 26mm lens.
The next camera gets an 8-megapixel sensor with F/2.2 aperture and 118-degree ultra-wide field of view. Then there is a 5-megapixel camera with F/2.4aperture and a Super macro lens. And the fourth camera is a 2-megapixel sensor again with an F/2.4 aperture and this is used for sensing depth information for portrait shots.
With the help of a primary camera, you can shoot 4k un-stabilized videos at 30fps, 1080p videos at 30/60, and 120fps. And 720p videos at 30/120/240 and 960fps. 1080p 30fps videos get electronic stabilisation. At the front, we get a 16-megapixel camera with an F/2.45 aperture. It can take 1080p videos at 30 fps, and 720p videos at 30 and 120fps.
Camera App Interface in Note 10 Pro
I found the interface of the camera app to be a bit confusing. I mean like with most other phones, you can swipe left or right to switch between various modes.
But if you want to take a 64MP image or a slow-motion video or the new clone option, you have to now slide to the more menu and then select the desired mode.
I found it much easier to use these modes when there were laid out and where a swipe or 2 away. Now because they are hidden away, many people will forget to use them.
This is how the camera app is set out of the box, but, you can edit the layout from camera settings, and add the modes that you use the most to the featured swiping.
you should take some time to set this up according to your preferences. You might want to add the new clone or dual video mode to your featured list so you are reminded that they are there if you ever need to use them.
This is how I like my camera modes, especially when I am taking images for camera reviews and comparisons. What you can’t add to the featured listings this new Super Macro mode.
There is a dedicated camera for this, but this mode is hidden in the secondary menu. I had someone ask me in the comments that they got this phone on the launch day, and their unit doesn’t have the Super Macro mode. Then I had to guide them to where it is hidden in the camera app.
a feature this important should be laid out in plain sight. Pro mode on this phone lets you dial in all settings according to your liking for videos, as you could do with images.
The range for shutter speed in this mode is from 1/4000th of a second, all the way up to 30 seconds. And the range for ISO is from 50 to 6400.
Image & Video Samples in Note 10 Pro
Now move to the image and video samples, I start with daytime images, but for this video let us change things a bit and start with video first. 4K 30fps is the largest resolution that you can shoot in.
There is no electronic stabilization at this resolution, but you can open the videos in the google photos app, hit the edit button, and stabilize it from there. If you want to stabilize videos out of the camera, you will have to lower the resolution down to 1080p and shoot at 30fps.
You lose out on some of the sharpness and details, but look how much better the handheld video looks. You can’t take 4K videos with the wide lens. This lens can only take 720p and 1080p videos at 30fps.
If you are shooting them in well-lit situations, videos from this phone can look good. There is an option to shoot dual videos with this phone. What this means is it can capture videos with the front and the rear cameras. While doing so, you can see a few stutters or dropped frames in the video from the rear camera.
