Apple doesn't publish an end date, but iPhones have a consistent ~4-year update track record — on that basis the Mi 10 Pro should be supported until around February 2024. Buying it today still gets you about -2.3 years of safe use (Apple's written legal minimum is 5 years).

Frequently asked questions

How long will the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro get updates?

Support has ended. The Mi 10 Pro received roughly three Android upgrades and about four years of security patches, all of which lapsed by 2024. No further updates arrive.

What cameras does the Mi 10 Pro have?

It uses a quad rear array: a 108MP main, a 20MP ultra-wide, a 12MP 2x portrait/telephoto, and an 8MP periscope-style zoom lens, making it more versatile than the standard Mi 10.

Is the Mi 10 Pro water resistant?

No. Like most of the Mi 10 lineup it carries no official IP rating, so avoid exposing it to water beyond light splashes.
