Xiaomi Mi 11 - The Affordable Flagship
HWM Singapore|June 2021
The Xiaomi Mi 11 has all the core features of what Xiaomi wants to offer in a 2021 flagship, without some of its over-the-top features from the Mi 11 Ultra. For instance, Mi 11 doesn’t have the secondary AMOLED display, multi-point direct ToF laser focusing, or IP-rated water resistance, all of which is available on the Mi 11 Ultra.

Xiaomi Mi 11 - The Affordable Flagship

Outside of those, the Mi 11 does offer everything one would expect from a 5G-capable, flagship-grade phone. We’re looking at a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 chipset and a HDR10+, 6.81-inch, 1440p resolution, 120Hz refresh rate AMOLED display. It also has an in-display fingerprint sensor and dual HiRes Audio-certified speakers tuned by Harman Kardon. It supports the latest Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 wireless profiles and even NFC (oddly not mentioned in its official specs). It even takes two physical Nano-SIM cards with its dual SIM configuration.

The triple rear camera setup on the Xiaomi Mi 11 packs a 108MP primary lens with a 1/1.33inch sensor size, 0.8m pixel size,f/1.85 aperture, and OIS. 4-in-1 Super Pixel is a pixel-binning technique that helps the main camera utilise and combine pixel and light data from neighbouring pixels.

Its accompanying shooters are a 13MP ultra-wide-angle camera with a generous 123° FOV and a 5MP telemacro camera with an autofocus distance of 3 to 10cm. As the name implies, the telemacro lens is responsible for both long-distance shots and extreme closeups. Other perks on the Mi 11 include Night Mode 2.0 shooting via both its main and ultra-wide cameras.
