Now, though, we’ll be talking about its 6.67-inch AMOLED display, which doesn’t just have a refresh rate 90 Hz, but also a sampling rate 180 Hz.

The display is distinctive at first glance

Unlike previous Xiaomi smartphone generations, the Mi 10 screen differs not only with the punch-hole for the front camera or its curvature. It’s also about a higher-quality display and better touch resolution.

The sampling rate works on a similar principle to the display’s refresh rate. Mi 10 is the first Xiaomi smartphone to use an AMOLED display type with an improved refresh rate of 90 Hz. In practice, that means the image is refreshed 90 times per second.

With a sampling rate of 180 Hz, it’s similar. The figure suggests that the display — its touch surface — can read new changes up to 180 times per second.

So Xiaomi Mi 10 reads a surface that the user touches up to 180-times per second. This not only increases the accuracy of touch positioning, but also the speed of touches and the speed of tracking finger movement across the display.

Naturally, the higher the sampling rate, the more accuracy and reading speed increase proportionally. If a user moves a finger from point A to point B across the touch surface in one second, the terminal will evaluate up to 180 different points.

What is this technology useful for?

One of the biggest advantages of a high sampling rate is its close link to mobile games. The higher the frequency of your device, the more accurate and faster the user’s reactions will be.

Undoubtedly a very useful feature, for example in action games like Fortnite or Call of Duty Mobile, where the speed and accuracy of reactions can mean the difference between virtual hero life and death.

In addition, a high sampling rate is also great for writing with strokes or drawing, where the strokes across the display are not only faster, but above all more precise.

Even before you buy, we’ll just point out that we link to the German version of the Edwaybuy website. This is so that payment goes through in euros—because through the English version you can only buy in dollars, and given the exchange rate, the prices aren’t as advantageous.

If you don’t know German, just like us, you can use Google Translate to translate the website.

1. First, register your account using this link. If you already have an account, you just need to sign in.
2. Add the product to your cart using the “IN DEN WARENKORB” button (add to cart).
3. In the cart under the RABATTCODES section, you can apply a discount coupon:

 The same applies to high-speed scrolling between menus in the mobile interface— the higher the frequency, the more precise and faster the repositioning will be.
