The smartphone is protected to IP53 standard. It is shockproof and is protected against dust and dirt getting inside its casing.

Display

The Redmi Note 11 Pro features a satisfyingly large AMOLED display. Its diagonal is 6.67 inches, which is becoming a preferred size by quite a few manufacturers lately. One of the plus points of its predecessor has been retained - namely the picture refresh rate of 120 Hz.

The resolution of the display is FullHD+, you will like the level of brightness and contrast. For durability and protection against accidental breakage, it's protected by Gorilla Glass 5.

Performance

Technically speaking, the Redmi Note 11 Pro has everything it takes to be competitive in the market. Underneath its hull lies a Mediatek Dimensity 920 processor, which comprises 8 cores - two of them are Cortex-A78 clocked at 2.5 GHz and the remaining 6 are Cortex-A55 clocked at 2.0 GHz. The processor is complemented by a Mali-G68 MC4 graphics core and 6 or 8 GB of RAM depending on the modification. The amount of internal storage can be 128 or 256 GB.

As a result, the Redmi Note 11 Pro handles resource-intensive applications well. It can tempt even gamers. Many games run smoothly even at maximum graphics performance. The device also has support for 5G networks.

Factory Redmi Note 11 Pro runs on Android 11 operating system and Miui 12.5 interface.

It is complemented by an 8-megapixel wide-angle camera with a 120-degree viewing angle. To these we must add a 2-megapixel camera, tasked with letting you take exciting macro shots.

While the main camera doesn't have optical stabilization, you can create quality photos. The night ones, on the other hand, will surprise you with a good level of detail.

As for the selfie camera, it is a single camera. It is represented by a 16-megapixel module that is wide-angle. The improved algorithms and the set of exciting filters and features in the camera app will inspire you to capture even the most ordinary moments of your daily life in an interesting way.

Redmi Note 11 Pro is up to the task. Its main camera records in 4K at 30 frames per second.
