Pixel 4a versus Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite camera comparison: unsurprising results

I think by now we can agree that a good smartphone camera isn’t determined solely by the number of sensors on a phone or how many megapixels those sensors have. In our latest smartphone camera comparison, we’re pitting the new Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite against the Pixel 4a. While both of these are considered to be budget-friendly smartphones, the Xiaomi device has a significant advantage over the Pixel 4a when you look at the phone’s specs sheets, especially in the camera department.

The Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite has a 64MP main camera sensor, an ultrawide camera, a dedicated depth sensor and a macro camera on the back while the Pixel 4a simply has a 12MP sensor from three years ago. On paper, the Pixel 4a doesn’t stand a chance in this matchup, but I think the results of this camera comparison may surprise you.
