* "19:9 Full Screen Display" as a term is meant to indicate that the display is larger than they the screen-to-body ratio is larger than a typical 16:9 Xiaomi phone;
* AI detection of 12 scene categories is a feature installed as part of the front camera Portrait mode. When using this feature the AI adjusts the camera effects according to its subjective perception.
* "1.8μm large pixels" refers to the process of 4-in-1 pixel binning that occurs when the camera's light sensor detects a low light environment. The binning process forms large pixels 1.8μm in size to brighten the picture.
* As the AI recognizes 27 categories of objects, it adjusts the camera effects according its subjective perception.
* Phones sold in the initial batch may not come pre-installed with MIUI10, which will be installed later via OTA update. Refer to the official MIUI webpage (www.miui.com) for releases.
