Summary
- The Samsung Galaxy A10 features a larger 6.2-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1520 pixels, while the Xiaomi Mi 4i has a smaller 5.0-inch display with a higher resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels, resulting in a significantly higher pixel density.
- In terms of performance, the Galaxy A10 is powered by the Exynos 7884 chipset, offering decent multitasking with up to 4GB of RAM, whereas the Mi 4i uses the Snapdragon 615 chipset with a maximum of 2GB RAM, which may limit performance in demanding tasks.
- Both devices have a 13 MP rear camera capable of 1080p video recording, but the A10 has a slightly wider aperture at f/1.9 compared to the f/2.0 of the Mi 4i.
- The Galaxy A10 has a larger 3400 mAh battery compared to the 3120 mAh battery of the Mi 4i, although the latter supports faster 10W charging.
- Build quality for both includes a glass front and plastic back, but the Mi 4i benefits from Gorilla Glass protection.
- Finally, the Galaxy A10 runs on a more recent version of Android (9.0, upgradable to 11) with One UI, while the Mi 4i operates on an older Android 5.0.2 with MIUI 8.2.
