Like the Mi 10 Lite, the Mi 10 Youth Edition for the Chinese market is equipped with an AMOLED screen, that features a water drop on the front and a rectangular camera cluster on the back. The phone comes with a glass back, that is slightly curved on the sides in order to bring the most comfortable grip for users.

The Mi 10 Youth Edition is only 7.88mm thick and weighs 192 grams, which is quite respectable with a 4,160mAh battery inside. The phone comes with 5 different color options, including White, Pink, Blue, Black, and Mint.

Inside, the phone is powered by a mid-range Snapdragon 765G processor, paired with an Adreno 620 GPU, up to 8GB LPDDR4x RAM, and up to 256GB UFS 2.1 storage.

The biggest difference between the Mi 10 Youth Edition for the Chinese market and the Mi 10 Lite for the international market is the camera.

• 48MP main sensor, f / 1.8 aperture

In addition, Xiaomi also said that the phone is integrated with all the high-end camera features offered on the Mi 10 flagship. Meanwhile, the selfie camera on the front of the device remains the same and has a resolution of 16MP.

Under the hood, the phone comes with a 4,160mAh battery, that supports 22.5W fast charging technology. Other notable features include in-display fingerprint sensor, dual-mode 5G network (SA & NSA), dual SIM, NFC connectivity, 3.5mm headphone jack, infrared, dual-frequency GPS, Hi-Res Audio, and 0.91cc speakers.
