With a tele score of 133, the Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra is also our number one pick for tele-zoom enthusiasts. Dual tele-lenses ensure that the Mi 10 Pro performs well at any zoom distance. Image quality in general is outstanding, and detail is very good across the zoom range.
Compared to the output of most of the competition, the Mi 10 Ultra zoom images are impressive, with lots of detail, especially at close, long, and very long zoom distances. At medium zoom factors (around 4x) the Xiaomi images have very good detail towards the center of the frame, but there is fall-off in sharpness towards the edges, caused by image fusion.
Strong luminance noise is also visible in some images and the testers also observed an occasional loss of texture on small surfaces, but those minor quibbles aside, the tele-lens is a key strength on the Mi 10 Ultra.
Also consider:
With 129 points, the Huawei Mate 40 Pro+ is the current number 2 for tele-zoom, and getting very close to the Xiaomi. Like its main rival in this category, it offers dual tele-lenses for consistent image quality across the tele range. Detail and noise levels on tele shots are very good, especially at close and medium range. Autofocus on the long tele module can be a little slow but if you give it the time it needs, results are accurate.
If you’re specifically looking for good long-tele capabilities the Oppo Find X2 Pro and Vivo X50 Pro+ are also worth a closer look.
