Xiaomi 11T Pro review

Design

Visually, the Xiaomi 11T Pro impresses. The body design is unique. It comes in three colors - dark grey, white and sky blue. The device weighs 204 grams at a thickness of 8.8 mm. The back panel resembles metallic glass. It feels like plastic to the touch. According to the manufacturer, the glossy back panel has a coating that does not leave fingerprints.

If you're wondering where the fingerprint scanner is positioned, it's built into the Xiaomi 11T Pro's start button. The sensor is responsive and will unlock the device with ease.

Display

On the front panel, we see the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protective glass. As of 2021, this is one of the strongest protective glasses the smartphone industry knows. Underneath is a 6.67-inch AMOLED display with a 120 Hz frame rate.

The screen has received HDR10+ certification. The picture resolution is 2400 x 1080 pixels. The maximum brightness reaches 1000 cd/m².

In addition, we should point out that the Xiaomi 11T Pro supports Dolby Vision. Thanks to this technology, the content is clearer, brighter and with more saturated colors. The quality visualization is complemented by quality sound. Thus, the smartphone will definitely win users to its side.

Performance

Xiaomi 11T Pro runs on Android 11 operating system and MIUI 12.5 proprietary interface. Three modifications are available in the market - with 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of storage. Since no memory card slot is supported, you need to determine how much memory you need right from the start.

The device supports 5G networks and work with 2 SIM cards. NFC module, Google Pay, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 are present.

Looking at the rest of the specs, we see a Snapdragon 888 processor whose power is ample for editing videos, editing photos, using advanced apps, playing games, etc.

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 consists of 8 Kryo 680 cores, four of which are power efficient. Adreno 660 is responsible for the graphics.

Cameras

The development of the Xiaomi 11T Pro's camera capabilities was inspired by cinema. This became known to all fans of the brand who watched the presentation of the smartphone. Its camera is designed to help every user to be able to create masterpieces from the usual moments of everyday life.

On the rear panel of Xiaomi 11T Pro, you will find a triple main camera that consists of 108 MP, 8 MP ultra-wide angle lens and 5 MP telephoto camera. The device is capable of taking quality and exciting photos with enviable detail.

In order to take good pictures in the late hours of the day, we recommend using the specially designed night mode. Post-processing is done by neural networks.

The portrait mode with artificial blurring in the background works successfully, although the Xiaomi 11T Pro is not equipped with a depth sensor. Various beautification filters, lighting effects etc are available for the user.

Video capture is 8K at 30 frames per second. Various cinematic modes and sound correction function are available. The latter allows you to increase or decrease it as you wish at a given point in the video. For example, waves, crackling of a lit fireplace, etc.

Autonomous operation

Xiaomi 11T Pro comes bundled with the new Xiaomi HyperCharge charger, which has a power of up to 120W. The battery fully recharges in just 17 minutes. It has a capacity of 5000 mAh. Are you going to leave your smartphone recharging all night from now on? It doesn't make sense when you have such advanced technology.

The battery capacity lasts for a day to two of autonomous operation. In just 10 minutes of recharging, you'll have a new one for up to 7 hours of continuous video viewing.

Conclusion

Xiaomi 11T Pro is an interesting smartphone belonging to the Mi 11 series. It impresses strongly with its looks. Among its positives, we have to highlight the good performance, professional camera and super fast battery recharge.

The Chinese company has positioned it on the market as a mid-range flagship.
