Late last month, Xiaomi launched its latest flagship, the Mi 10 Pro, globally. The device was originally planned to be unveiled at MWC 2020, but plans obviously changed. XDA TV's Max Weinbach got his hands on the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro and shared his first impressions of the device.

Perhaps not surprising considering it's the company's most recent device, Max says the Mi 10 Pro is the best Xiaomi phone ever made. Everything about it from the specifications to the fit and finish is very premium. However, all of that comes at a price. The Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro is the company's most expensive device ever as well.

All things considered, Max says the phone is "fantastic." The price is the only problem. There are plenty of flagship phones in 2020 with $1,000+ price tags. When you're putting that much money down for a phone, the decision becomes even harder. Max will explore that more in his full review, but in the meantime, you can check out his unboxing and hands-on below.
