Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G smartphone review: The cheapest entry into the Mi 11 series

Budget edition. Xiaomi gathers its top smartphones in the Mi 11 series and also charges quite a bit of money for them. In terms of price, the situation is exactly the opposite with the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G. The 6.55-inch mid-range smartphone starts at 300 Euros (~$354) and is therefore clearly the cheapest representative of the Mi 11 series. Nevertheless, its features and performance are good as our review will show.

After launching the Mi 11 and the Mi 11 Ultra top models, Xiaomi followed up with the mid-range Mi 11 Lite 5G. With the Mi 11 Lite 4G, the second Lite model enters the race now, and it's even cheaper than its 5G counterpart, which is already quite affordable in terms of features and performance.

The Mi 11 Lite 4G also adopts the same design language as the Mi 11 top models. However, there's slightly less features compared with the 5G version like the Snapdragon 732G instead of the Snapdragon 780G, for example, as well as only Wi-Fi 5 instead of Wi-Fi 6. Apart from that, the distance to the Mi 11 Lite 5G is very short overall, though.

The 6.55-inch Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite scores points with a 2400x1080 resolution AMOLED panel that runs at up to 90 Hz and supports HDR10. In addition, there's up to 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage, a 64 MP triple-camera setup, and a 4,250 mAh battery.

Our review shows how the device can hold its own with these hardware components in the highly competitive mid-range and how it compares with the Mi 11 Lite 5G.

Case - Very slim, very light, glossy look

At just 6.81 millimeters (measured without the camera bump), the slim and high-quality case of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is not only very thin, but it's also very light at 157 grams, which is even 2 grams lighter than the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G. Among the comparison devices, only the Google Pixel 4a weighs even less, but it's also a good deal smaller at 5.8 inches.

Except for small details, the chassis doesn't differ from the one of the Mi 11 Lite 5G. Xiaomi offers the Mi 11 Lite 4G in Boba Black, Bubblegum Blue, and Peach Pink, while the 5G version is available in Mint Green, Citrus Yellow, and Truffle Black. Both variants have a glass back. The latter is matte on the Mi 11 Lite 5G, while it's reflective on the Mi 11 Lite 4G. The highly glossy finish looks stylish, but it also attracts fingerprints almost magically.

The front of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is protected by Gorilla Glass 5 (Gorilla Glass 6 on the 5G version). Both smartphones have an IP53 rating that protects them against dust and splashing water.

Connectivity - 8 GB memory variant hard to get

Xiaomi offers the Mi 11 Lite 4G in three storage variants. However, only two of them are currently available in its web store: The version with 6 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 64 GB of UFS 2.2 storage costs 300 Euros (~$354), and the version with 128 GB of RAM costs 350 Euros (~$413).

Our review sample is the third version with 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128 GB UFS 2.2 storage (product number M2101K9AG), which isn't available in Xiaomi's store or on German price comparison portals yet. At the time of testing, it's still unclear if and when Xiaomi will officially announce the 8 GB variant for the European market. Aside from the additional 2 GB of RAM, however, the rest of the configuration is identical to the 6 GB version.

Features include a fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button, an OTG-capable USB-C port with USB 2.0 speeds, dual SIM, and an IR blaster. Instead of two SIM cards, the SIM slot can also hold a single SIM card and a microSD card of up to 512 GB. An always-on setting for the AMOLED panel is available, but the display duration is limited to 10 seconds in MIUI 12.

Software - Android 11 and MIUI 12 for the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G

Xiaomi equips the Mi 11 Lite 4G with Android 11 and its in-house user interface MIUI 12. At the time of testing (end of June), the Android security patches are still at the level of April 1 and consequently no longer quite up to date. However, since Xiaomi provides its current smartphones with security updates every three months, an update can be expected in July.

MIUI is a well-organized system interface, but it displays advertisements after installing apps, the so-called MSA (MIUI System Ads). They can become annoying over time, but they can be deactivated quite easily with built-in settings. There are numerous guides online like this one, for example.

The Xiaomi phone supports DRM Widevine L1 and can therefore stream content in HD as well.

Communication and GNSS - NFC, Bluetooth 5.1, and Wi-Fi 5

The Mi 11 Lite 4G's wireless communication features include 4G with all important frequencies for the EU region, NFC, Bluetooth 5.1, and Wi-Fi 5. Although it delivers very constant transfer rates on Wi-Fi, it's not particularly fast due to the lack of MIMO technology.

Connected to our reference router, the Netgear Nighthawk AX12, the smartphone only achieves 332 Mb/s for receiving data and even only 283 Mb/s for sending data. Equipped with Wi-Fi 6 and multi-user MIMO, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G manages a data throughput that is more than twice as high on Wi-Fi. The 5G variant is also equipped with a more up-to-date Bluetooth version than the Mi 11 Lite 4G (Bluetooth 5.2 versus 5.1).

The Mi 11 Lite 4G determines its position using the GPS and GLONASS satellite navigation systems (L1 in each case), as well as Galileo (E1) and BeiDou (B1). In the test, the device manages this quickly and with an accuracy of up to 3 meters both indoors and outdoors.

The smartphone does quite well on a short bike ride on which the Garmin Edge 500 is taken along for comparison. Although it doesn't perform quite as accurately as the professional navigation device, and it often locates us a few meters off the route, especially in dense urban areas, the overall precision is sufficient for everyday use.

Telephone and call quality - Dual SIM with VoLTE and VoWiFi

The Mi 11 Lite 4G convinces with good call quality in the test. Users can understand each other well, regardless of whether the smartphone is held to the ear or used in hands-free mode.

Wi-Fi calling and VoLTE are supported. 

Cameras - Full-fledged triple-camera setup shoots good photos

Photo taken with the main camera
Photo taken with the main camera

The front-facing camera in the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G has a resolution of 16 MP, which is 4 MP less than in the Mi 11 Lite 5G. Despite that, the picture quality is good in the smaller version as well. The software automatically blurs the background in the standard portrait settings while also adding a softening effect, which ensures pleasing selfies in good ambient light almost all the time. Video calls are possible with a maximum resolution of 1080p at 60 frames per second.

The square camera module at the back consists of three lenses and an LED flash. Its centerpiece is the 64 MP camera surrounded by a silver-colored ring, which delivers daylight photos that score points with vivid colors and good sharpness.

Despite the identical camera specs, the 4G and 5G versions of the Mi 11 Lite probably use different sensors. One indication for this is the white balance, for which you don't necessarily have to use the AI mode in the Mi 11 Lite 4G unlike with its 5G sibling model. The Mi 11 Lite 4G's main camera already captures colors and grayscales quite well in the default settings, so that the photographed subjects don't look oversaturated or washed out.

In poor ambient light, the main camera still extracts many details from the subjects, but the photos aren't really able to impress on the whole. However, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G performs noticeably worse, which is another indication for a different camera sensor. None of the phones has electronic image stabilization or a telephoto lens, which is why a steady hand is required when zooming in particular.

The main camera records videos at up to 4K and 30 frames per second. The 119˚ ultra wide-angle camera, which sits in the camera module to the right of the main lens, can handle a maximum of 1080p at 30 FPS as well. With a resolution of only 8 MP, pictures taken with the ultra wide-angle camera are well illuminated, but they don't provide much detail, they're blurry at the edges, and they are barely of use at night.

The third camera is a 5 MP telemacro camera that can be used to capture decent close-ups with a little practice. Unlike many budget smartphones, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G offers three full-fledged cameras instead of two cameras plus one stopgap solution like a depth sensor or a low-resolution macro camera.

Accessories and warranty - 33-watt power adapter, one-year warranty

Xiaomi equips its smartphone with a 33-watt power adapter, a USB cable (Type-A to C), a transparent protective case, a SIM tool, and a Type-C to 3.5 mm headphone adapter. A user manual and warranty card are also included in the box. Xiaomi doesn't offer any special accessories for its smartphone.

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is backed by a 12-month warranty.

Input devices and handling - Xiaomi phone with 240 Hz touch sampling rate

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G's AMOLED panel features a touch sampling rate of 240 Hz and a refresh rate of up to 90 Hz (alternatively 60 Hz). This allows the smartphone to be operated very smoothly.

The fingerprint sensor isn't located under the display like in the Mi 11 Lite 5G, but it's integrated into the power button instead. It also works when the screen is off and unlocks the Mi 11 Lite 4G quickly and reliably. The same is true for the second biometric authentication method, face recognition using the front-facing camera. Because it's based on a 2D method, however, it's not quite as secure.

PWM flickering at a constant 90 Hz at brightness levels of 53% and above.

The Mi 11 Lite 4G's HDR10-compatible AMOLED panel has a resolution of 2400x1080 pixels, resulting in a high pixel density of 402 PPI. The 6.55-inch display supports a refresh rate of 60 or 90 Hz and has a nominal brightness of up to 800 nits.

The Mi 11 Lite 4G delivers as promised in the test, exceeding the manufacturer's specification with an average of 808.9 cd/m² on a pure white background. If we repeat the measurement with evenly distributed bright and dark areas (APL50), we can even achieve up to 842 cd/m². In contrast, the luminance drops to 462 cd/m² when the brightness sensor is disabled. We still measure 2.88 cd/m² at the lowest brightness level. In line with the HDR10 certification, the display covers 99.7% of the DCI-P3 color space.

The AMOLED panel uses pulse width modulation (PWM) for brightness control. It operates in a fairly high frequency range of 344.8 to 373.1 Hz when the panel brightness is set to 53% or lower. At higher brightness levels, we measure a constant PWM frequency of 90 Hz.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM detected 373.1 Hz ≤ 53 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 373.1 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 53 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 373.1 Hz is relatively high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. However, there are reports that some users are still sensitive to PWM at 500 Hz and above, so be aware.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18071 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Three color schemes are available with "Automatic", "Saturated", and "Original Color". The AMOLED panel delivers the best image quality in the third one. If you switch to "Original Color", colors and grayscales are reproduced in the ideal range (DeltaE < 3). Color temperature and gamma values are almost textbook here as well.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
2.4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 1.2 ms rise
↘ 1.2 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 7 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.6 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
2.8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 1.6 ms rise
↘ 1.2 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 7 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.9 ms).

Thanks to the high brightness of the AMOLED panel, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G can be used well outdoors. Content is still quite legible on the screen even in direct sunlight.

As is typical for AMOLED panels, the image shifts slightly towards greenish or bluish hues when you look at the screen from the side. However, this doesn't affect legibility.

Performance - 4G version of the Mi 11 Lite with slower SoC

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G and  Mi 11 Lite 5G mostly only differ when it comes to details. However, the processor is quite a big factor. While the 5G version is powered by the Snapdragon 780G, the Mi 11 Lite 4G uses the much slower Snapdragon 732G with its Adreno 618 graphics chip.

As a result, the Mi 11 Lite 4G is no match for its 5G sibling in the synthetic benchmarks and browser tests, and it's also narrowly beaten by the Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite 5G, which is equipped with the Snapdragon 765G. However, this performance difference is hardly noticeable in everyday use, because the Mi 11 Lite 4G loads apps and websites quickly and doesn't seem to have any trouble displaying content smoothly.

Although the Mi 11 Lite 4G and Mi 11 Lite 5G use the same flash storage type (UFS 2.2), the test device's data throughput is clearly behind. The reason for the slower performance is probably the storage controller in the Snapdragon 732G, which simply doesn't allow higher speeds.

Games - Run smoothly but rarely at over 30 FPS

With the Snapdragon 732G and stereo speakers, the Xiaomi Mi 11 provides a decent gaming package. The smartphone runs recent games like PUBG Mobile and Armajet smoothly, and it also manages a constant 30 frames per second in both cases. Actually, the Mi 11 Lite 4G could have used its 90 Hz display to its full advantage in Armajet, also because the game isn't too graphically demanding. But even the frame-rate setting "No Limit" doesn't allow more than 30 FPS.

We determine the frame rates with the Gamebench tool.

Emissions - Only slight throttling under load

Temperature

The Mi 11 Lite 4G is pleasant to the touch at all times during use. The largest heat source, the Snapdragon 732G, is located to the right of the camera module, meaning it's in the upper right corner of the smartphone and consequently in an area that is rarely touched. If you do touch it, it's not a big deal because the Xiaomi phone's surfaces barely get hotter than lukewarm with a maximum temperature of 37.6 °C (~100 °F).

However, internal throttling can still happen. As GFXBench's battery tests show, the frame rates remain quite constant for a long time when running both test scenarios, T-Rex and Manhattan, for the 30th time, but they suddenly drop sharply afterwards. Nevertheless, the performance loss remains within relatively narrow limits. Therefore, you shouldn't notice any throttling in everyday use.

Speakers

The stereo speakers in the Mi 11 Lite 4G deliver decent audio, but it sounds quite thin due to the lack of bass tones. Users who only play music or videos on the smartphone every now and then will still be quite well served with the pair of speakers.

Users will have to do without a 3.5 mm jack on the Mi 11 Lite, but an included adapter can be used to connect audio devices to the USB-C port. Headsets and external speakers can also be connected wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.1.

Battery life

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G lasts 11:32 hours in our Wi-Fi test, which we conduct with a display brightness adjusted to 150 cd/m². When playing an H.264 video in a continuous loop, it lasts 17:22 hours under the same conditions. Both are good, but not outstanding rates. Nevertheless, the Xiaomi smartphone should easily survive a whole day away from the power outlet in everyday use, even during intensive operation.

Verdict on the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G

In review: Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G. Test device provided by Xiaomi Germany.
In review: Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G. Test device provided by Xiaomi Germany.

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G stands out from many other mid-range smartphones with its stylish design and very thin and light case. The "Lite" suffix in the name makes it clear that buyers shouldn't expect top performance and features, but there's plenty of both considering the price.

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is a very thin and well-equipped mid-range smartphone that should appeal to many buyers due to its stylish design in particular.

The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G has a lot in common with the slightly more expensive, but almost identical-looking, Mi 11 Lite 5G version, including the bright 90 Hz AMOLED panel and HDR10 support. The camera performance is even slightly better overall, especially in low-light pictures. However, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is equipped with the slightly slower Snapdragon 732G SoC. Furthermore, it comes with Bluetooth 5.1 instead of 5.2, and the selfie camera has a resolution of 16 MP instead of 20 MP.

Despite its slightly weaker processor, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G is very fast in everyday use. And users who can put up with the remaining compromises compared with the 5G version will be practically just as well off with the Mi 11 Lite 4G, but they'll save some money. However, Xiaomi competes with itself once again like with the Poco F3, for example, which is in the same price range but has a much faster SoC with the Snapdragon 870 and also a 120 Hz AMOLED panel.

Price and availability

At the time of writing, you can find the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 4G with 8 GB of RAM on newegg for $344.99. Alternatively, the version with 128 GB of storage and 6 GB of RAM is available on Amazon for around $339.
