Xiaomi presented the arrival in Italy of the new ones Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G e Redmi Note 11S 5G. The two smartphones were the focus of a launch event that the company showed today in live streaming through its YouTube channel. Surprisingly, Xiaomi has also unveiled the arrival of a new smartphone we knew nothing about. Let’s find out all the details together.
Redmi Note 11 Pro + 5G and Redmi Note 11S 5G: price and features
Let’s start with the best performing model of the line. Following the launch in China, the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G it is one of the most expensive smartphones in the Redmi Note line but based on its specifications, it might be worth it for two reasons: his ability to take pictures and his charging speed.
The phone comes with a 108MP primary camera. The smartphone also features a sensor Samsung ISOCELL HM2 – it is not the first time that Xiaomi makes use of it, and it also owns a double Native ISO. In the auxiliary sensor department, he offers us a 8MP ultra-wide with a field of view of 120 degrees and one 2MP macro camera.
In terms of battery capacity, we have a cell from 4.500 mAh, which isn’t the best as we’ve seen phones in this price range with larger batteries. However, Xiaomi offers us a 120W battery charger. This is the first Redmi phone with this one ultra-fast charging technology, as it had only made its way into Xiaomi’s flagship range until now. According to the company, the phone’s battery can be fully charged in 15 minutes. In comparison, the standard Redmi Note 11 Pro gets 67W of maximum charging, so this is it almost twice as fast.
As for the other specs, the phone is powered by a SoC MediaTek Dimensity 920 with up to 8GB in RAM e 256GB di storage. In the display department, we have one 6.67 inch AMOLED screen a 120Hz 2400×1080 Full HD+ with a touch sampling rate of 360Hz.
The display can also get quite bright, with a peak brightness of 1,200 nitsand is protected by Gorilla Glass 5. He also has a headphone jack – all three devices announced today have one. You might think it’s pretty common in this range but that’s not the case. Many Xiaomi models – and mid-range models – they are completely abandoning the jack for headphones so we are happy that this feature is part of these new models.
Finally, the phone is shipped with Android 11 e MIUI 12.5. As announced, the device will be available in three different colors: Graphite Gray, Star Blue e Forest Green.
Redmi Note 11S 5G
If you don’t need something as powerful as the Note 11 Pro + 5G, maybe the Note 11S 5G is the best option for you.
If you’ve been keeping an eye on Xiaomi’s recent announcements, this specific phone might seem a little familiar to you. It is essentially a Little M4 Pro 5G renamed. In China it was launched as the standard Redmi Note 11.
The Redmi Note 11S 5G is powered by a processor MediaTek Dimensity 810 and comes with up to 6GB in RAM e 128GB di storage. There is a display 6.6 inch IPS LCD with an adaptive refresh rate of 90Hza touch sample rate of 240Hz and a resolution Full HD+ di 2400×1080. Unlike the Note 11 Pro + 5G, this one is actually powered by the newest MIUI 13although it is still based on Android 11.
This phone is not as powerful as the top-end model in terms of charging speeds and cameras. The phone has 33W fast chargingwhich should allow you to charge the battery from 0% to 100% in less than an hour. However it has a larger battery – a cell from 5.000 mAh which provides a lot of power.
The photographic sector is characterized by a 50MP main sensorflanked by a 8MP ultrawide it’s a 2MP macro: there is also one 13MP front camera. The device will be available in three different colors: Midnight Black, Twilight Blue e Star Blue.
A surprise for the public: Redmi 10 5G
Finally, we come to the lowest-end device in today’s announcements – the Redmi 10 5G. This is the cheapest 5G smartphone unveiled today by Xiaomi. This is possible thanks to the chipset MediaTek Dimensity 700 and his display IPS LCD. It features an adaptive refresh rate of 90Hz and offers a resolution of 2408×1080.
It boasts up to 6GB in RAM e 128GB di storage and is the only one of the three phones to run Android 12.
Its cameras are definitely not as versatile as those on other phones. Its main sensor is still of 50MP and should be able to produce great images for its price range but we have neither an ultra-wide nor a macro lens this time around.
The smarpthone has a 5.000 mAh which should provide a lot of energy for the whole day and for recharging, it gets to 18W – not the best or the fastest, but it should charge your phone in no time.
The device is available in three different color options: Graphite Gray, Chrome Silver e Aurora Green.
