There is a huge battle in the smartphone industry and many phone makers are now improving their game. Also, MediaTek with its Dimensity 5G chips seems to be doing a great job. Earlier today, Lu Weibing, the general manager of the Redmi brand revealed that the Redmi 10X will be the world’s first phone with the Dimensity 820 5G chip. He also took to his official Weibo handle to reveal that the AnTuTu score of this smartphone exceeds 410,000 points. Specifically, the Redmi 10X hit 415,672 points on AnTuTu.
With this score, Redmi 10X will obviously be the new mid-range “king” in town. Looking at the global top 10 best performing mid-range phone for April 2020, Huawei nova 7i with Kirin 810 tops the list with 308,853 points. The Dimensity 820 clearly outperforms this chip.

The display will feature a punch-hole on the top left corner for the front selfie camera. We should see a quad-camera module having a 48MP primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide lens, and two 2MP sensors.
