Reviews for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro (China)

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro is a great all-around mid-range phone. It ticks all the necessary boxes, with display quality, battery life and camera performance in particular shining. Add to this a R6 499 (RRP) price tag and starts to prove quite tempting. Our only issue is what is potentially on the way from Xiaomi. As we noted this first batch of devices from the company do not support 5G, but when a batch that does support lands in SA, the addition of this feature turns the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G into an entirely different prospect. While 5G is not a key consideration at the moment, the fact that a Note 11 Pro with 5G support could be around the corner, places a little spectre of doubt on what is otherwise a great option in the standard Note 11 Pro.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro proved to be a good all-around mid-range smartphone, with a stylish look, great stereo speakers, long-lasting battery performance, quick charging, and decent cameras on both sides. The performance, on the other hand, falls short of the competition in this class. MIUI 13’s launcher is also loved by millions of users throughout the world. However, Xiaomi could have at least delivered Android 12 out of the box and kept the same quad-camera layout as its predecessor. Redmi Note 11 Pro still offer one of the best value in its class when compared to its competitors. To sum up, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro is an excellent smartphone that you should consider if 5G and gaming are not important to you.

The Redmi Note 11 Pro shares very identical features to its upper sibling Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G, the only major difference is the lack of 5G support. It has a 120 Hz AMOLED display, 67W fast charging, 108 MP primary camera, stereo speakers, and an Helio G96 processor that performs fairly good. The 4G variant comes at a lower cost, the price starts at ₹17,999 while the 5G variant is priced at ₹20,999.

At the end of the day, we can't blame Xiaomi for trying to refresh its signature Redmi Note series at times of unprecedented global crisis. The economy is not what it was two years ago, and phones, along with everything else, is going to be more expensive. So, it's not really the maker's fault for what's happening. But we think Xiaomi could have handled better these Redmi Note 11 Pro models, maybe postpone them and rethink their place in the market. Long story short, until we see the Redmi Note 11 Pro at a discount, or until the older Xiaomi models are no longer available, we can't but think of the Redmi Note 11 Pro as unsellable.

For people who want a slightly larger screen and a better-looking back cover compared to the Poco M4 Pro, the Note 11 makes sense for roughly the same price. Additionally, for people in countries where 5G is still not widely available, it makes sense to get the cheaper Note 11 device in my opinion. You basically get great performance, the rest of the features on the more expensive device, and better main camera video. There are some minor tradeoffs with the rest of the cameras, but if you are not big into selfies or night photography, then the regular Note 11 is a great choice for a lower price.

The Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is a great smartphone, this should not be doubted. It has an excellent 120Hz AMOLED screen, powerful speakers, outstanding battery life and charging speed, as well as adequate performance and camera experience. Its design is quite attractive, too. The new Note is a proper member of the Redmi Note series, too, so it's not a failure or a disappointment. It launches with a price which is probably relevant to the market realities in 2022. But unfortunately, there are many cheaper and more powerful smartphones released before the Note 11 Pro 5G, which are still very much relevant and available. Many of them are even Xiaomi-made. And that's what stands in the way of the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G to be a best-seller. That, and the lackluster upgrades, the worsened photo quality and the missing 4K video capturing. Obviously, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is not ideal. While it aces some aspects, it messes up others. And its price tag is not in its favor, not until it gets a sensible price tag later on. Until this happens, we cannot recommend the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G even if it is a good phone.

After being disappointed by the standard Redmi Note 11 due to its performance issues, the Pro model steps up to earn its stripes and, indeed, its very name is far more justified. However, compared to the previous-gen Note 10 Pro model there's not a massive difference, plus there's some minor screen flickering issues at low brightness in the new model (for this review unit anyway), and we've found the battery life less capable than before too. The key takeaway, however, is that performance is of a far better ilk than the standard model. So whether you want 5G browsing, to run multiple apps without fuss, or to game without real limits - there's also a 120Hz refresh rate to take advantage of - the Redmi Note 11 Pro is a very attractively priced handset. That's the real appeal of Redmi: affordability. Because if you want the better software experience of a Moto G200, for example, then you'll need to fork out yet more cash for the pleasure. As such, given the full spectrum of features on offer here, this Redmi gets the thumbs up.

In terms of the mid-range flagship phone, the Redmi Note series has already made its name. The upcoming Redmi Note 11 Pro and Note 11 Pro Plus also look promising as they feature robust performance, long battery life, and decent camera quality. So there’s nothing to do with how you’re getting the best of the best features out of any midrange phone. But if you’re looking for a great overall experience, then yes, there’s no denying that you can choose what you want, because both will be of equal value. Both phones come with the same specs, the only difference is the battery section, so you can definitely go for the Redmi Note 11 Pro smartphone. If you are looking for an alternative option you can definitely check the OnePlus 9RT with a more robust chipset.

After several days of active testing of the Redmi Note 11 Pro device, I was left under a very good impression. The device has indeed received many useful and interesting features at a relatively inexpensive cost. On the positive side, I can highlight the good materials used. That is, the smartphone was made of frosted glass on the back, but from a plastic frame. As for the build quality, I had no particular complaints at all. In addition, the smartphone received a high-quality screen with a size of 6.67 inches with Full HD resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate and a good brightness level. In addition, I liked the performance of the smartphone. Not only its results in various benchmark tests, but also in the results of everyday use and even games. Considering its low cost, the device received a good camera with a 108 megapixel sensor. But the rest of the sensors remained typical, as well as on more budget models of smartphones.
