The vanilla Note 11 looks similar to its Pro siblings but takes a few notable downgrades. The chipset is Dimensity 810, coupled with four memory options - 4/128GB, 6/128GB, 8/128GB, and 8/256GB. At the front, we’re looking at a 6.6” LCD with Full HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. The back has the same huge island but sadly comes with only two cameras - 50MP main unit and 8MP ultrawide camera. At least the Redmi Note 11 retained the 16MP selfie shooter.
There is a downgrade in the battery
department as well. The vanilla Note 11 has 33W fast charging for the 5,000mAh
battery, which should charge from 0 to 100% in 62 minutes, according to Redmi.
The fingerprint scanner made its way on the side, doubling as a power key.
Here, we also see a 3.5 mm audio jack,
stereo speakers and an IR sensor, as well as Android 11 with MIUI 12.5 on top.
And just like the Pro phones, the Redmi Note 11 does not have a micro SD slot. The
Redmi Note 11 is going to be available in Gradient, Black, and Mint Blue colors
and start from CNY 1,199 (US$ 187). The first flash sale will take place on Monday,
November 1.
Instead the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ will have a
Yibo Design option that is Green with fancy stripes and has a 3D effect of the
Redmi logo, painted on the glass back. It costs CNY 2,699 (US$ 420) and will launch
on November 11, the Chinese shopping holiday known as Singles’ Day.
