Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Review : Shook The Smartphone Industry

However much it would have you accept that it settles on its item decisions carefully, it's turning out to be progressively certain that Xiaomi additionally has a thrill seeker streak to it. It's similar to the Hulk from the Avengers. Generally it's in charge, however every so often it would release the monster inside. Back in 2017, it decided to dispatch the eccentric Mi Mix 2 in India over the somewhat average Mi 6. In 2021, it has avoided the Mi 11 and brought the Mi 11 Ultra all things being equal.

Yet, while the Mix 2 was a bet that didn't pay off, with CEO Lei Jun later letting it be known was not an ideal choice for the Indian market, the Mi 11 Ultra has its work cut out marginally. It is coming when the overall mindfulness about the Mi brand is at an unsurpassed high with Xiaomi taking most of 2020 and early this year, cautiously coordinating the portfolio with a huge number of dispatches going from the passage level Mi 10i and Mi 11 Lite to the worth lead Mi 11X Pro. The Mi 11 Ultra is its last curtain call. 

Plan and cameras 

In contrast to most telephones, the Mi 11 Ultra is made of fired. This makes it the most tough telephone in the market today, from a certain point of view. Furthermore, one of the heaviest. The external edge is made of metal. The telephone's marquee include is its camera island, rather, a mainland maybe, coasting on top of all that artistic. There is only no getting away from it.

The knock is so conspicuous, it makes the telephone unbalanced. By a sizeable edge. This is a telephone that unquestionably will burden you. Becoming acclimated to it will require some investment. The main silver lining is that it doesn't wobble on a surface. A case is fundamental. 

With all due respect, there is such a lot of tech inside this telephone, it more than makes up for its monstrous measurements. There is no deficiency of contrivances all things considered. For example, the camera(s). Not exclusively does the Mi 11 Ultra pack the absolute most thrilling arrangement of cameras we've seen on a cell phone to date, you can likewise utilize them to take selfies utilizing the packaged 1.1-inch back AMOLED show. It's a workaround okay, and restricted in usefulness, as for example, you can't record recordings in this mode, yet it functions admirably enough. 

The back show furthermore serves twofold obligation as a consistently on board for showing time, date, battery details and notices in spite of the fact that I am not completely persuaded the number of individuals will actually want to keep their telephones forward looking down to utilize this component. What's more, for some inquisitive explanation, it isn't actually consistently on essentially in light of the fact that Xiaomi restricts it to 30 seconds max.

In spite of all the tech — and a sizeable 5,000mAh battery — the Mi 11 Ultra is as yet slimmer than the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra and iPhone 12 Pro Max which is an amazing accomplishment of designing. This is a telephone that bends on every one of the four sides and keeping in mind that it removes the grasp — and makes it tricky — the weight helps make things simpler. The top notch fabricate materials further improve close by feel. The white colourway I have for audit doesn't draw in a great deal of smear and fingerprints. Bottomline is, there's a technique to the Mi 11 Ultra's frenzy in the event that you don't get snatched up by its paper specs–8.38mm, 234g. Notwithstanding, it will require the consideration of both your hands consistently. For setting, the S21 Ultra is a superior planned telephone. 

However, where those specs do bode well is in the camera office. The Mi 11 Ultra has a sum of three cameras on the back. There is a 50MP essential camera with a huge 1/1.12-inch Samsung GN2 sensor (a first for this structure factor) sitting behind an optically settled f/1.95 opening focal point. This is matched with two 48MP cameras (Sony IMX598 sensor), one with a f/2.2 super wide-point focal point (128-degree field-of-see) and one more with a periscope-style zooming focal point for a sum of 120x zoom (5x optical). 

Xiaomi claims the Mi 11 Ultra is the world's first telephone with Dual Pixel Pro innovation for quick auto concentration and the primary Mi telephone with multi-point direct Time-of-Flight intense attention framework for higher precision. Every one of the three cameras in the Mi 11 Ultra help night mode and can shoot in 8K (at 24fps). The incredible equipment inside the telephone makes it conceivable to switch between the cameras on the fly while recording. Furthermore, not at all like the OnePlus 9 Pro, the Mi 11 Ultra's cameras stay usable in any event, when the telephone gets hot or when you're shooting in a warm climate. 

Coming to picture quality, it's extraordinary to see the Mi 11 Ultra set out to really utilize all that great equipment. It is effectively among the best — if not awesome — camera telephones on the lookout and it does this "reliably" across a wide range of lighting situations. The cameras are enjoyable to utilize and photographs come out with loads of detail and incredible powerful reach. It's the best camera telephone that Xiaomi has at any time ever. One that can give rivals, particularly OnePlus, a run for their cash. 

Where it faulters, it's not on the grounds that it needs something, this is Xiaomi's very own result naiveté in adjusting its camera equipment, something that Samsung and Apple have been accomplishing throughout recent years. I will not venture to such an extreme as to say the Mi 11 Ultra needs clean however I will say this, Xiaomi needs to chip away at its shading science. Shadings shouldn't look so oversaturated. In pursuing those unreasonable, eye-popping tones, the Mi 11 Ultra frequently will in general clasp features and misses out on fine subtleties particularly in the shadows. For a telephone that is attempting to contend with the S21 Ultra and iPhone 12 Pro Max, each ounce of detail counts. 


Credit should be given where it's expected and the Mi 11 Ultra shows not all super wide-point cameras should be awful. In addition to the fact that it offers one of the vastest field-of-sees accessible on a business cell phone, it works effectively clutching subtlety and restricting barrel twisting. The Mi 11 Ultra additionally verges on testing Samsung's "zoom" collection. At 5x and 10x, everything except experts the S21 Ultra. It is just when you go for the moon, when Xiaomi's product sort of, kind of, takes somewhat of a rearward sitting arrangement. Samsung has basically done this a great deal. On schedule, Xiaomi will ideally improve as well. 

The most fragile connection of this telephone is maybe the 20MP front camera. It is scarcely workable and for reasons unknown, can't do 4K recordings. 

Show and execution 

The Mi 11 Ultra has a 6.81-inch E4 AMOLED show with a 2K or QHD+ goal and 120Hz invigorate rate (480Hz touch testing). Xiaomi has sourced it from Samsung and it's effectively the greatest feature of this telephone. It has incredible difference and review points and brilliance levels are in abundance. It's additionally quick and liquid and revives progressively. In addition, Xiaomi has tossed in such countless switches inside the settings (counting DC diminishing) you can tune the screen to your particular prerequisite. A particularly level of granular customisation doesn't exist in some other telephone on the lookout. 

The smartphone is worked for content utilization totally and doesn't baffle on any front. It can likewise play Dolby Vision content like the iPhone 12. The board is ensured by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus. For biometrics, it has an optical in-show unique mark scanner which is quick yet there is some opportunity to get better.

A couple of Harmon Kardon sound system speakers adjust the bundle. These get very boisterous and bassy with great sound system division. There is no earphone jack. 

Controlling the telephone is Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 framework on-chip with 12GB LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB UFS3.1 stockpiling. This is non-expandable. Programming inside the telephone is Xiaomi's MIUI 12 which depends on Android 11. I have positively no question in saying the mix is a perfect pair. The Mi 11 Ultra flies, or rather let me put it straightforwardly, MIUI flies like anything on the Mi 11 Ultra — and dissimilar to anything we've seen from Xiaomi up until now. Beside a couple of periodic slacks and butterflies to a great extent, the experience is fulfilling and, all the more significantly, agreeable. I have had loads of fun utilizing this telephone. I have played a great deal of games on it (the telephone tends to run hot yet it doesn't choke). I have made it my day by day driver. Not once have I missed a Samsung Galaxy or an iPhone or pretty much whatever else. It's pinnacle Xiaomi. 

In any case, it isn't awesome, the Mi 11 Ultra. However much I have appreciated utilizing MIUI on this telephone, it's disillusioning that it's actually running a nearly "old" variant, otherwise known as MIUI 12.0.2 with the March security fix, with no word on future updates, all the more exactly MIUI 12.5. A superior telephone like this should not be about the equipment as it were. Programming driving that equipment is similarly significant. Experience isn't just with regards to how thin or light a telephone is, or how well it plays a graphically requesting game, it is concerning how it passages in everyday use and programming has a major impact in that. It is additionally significant from a future-sealing point of view. 

For a "superphone" that expenses as much as what the Mi 11 Ultra does, Xiaomi's product decisions could represent the moment of truth its amazing desires and tentative arrangements. It can't rival Samsung and OnePlus — or Apple — without offering a feeling of safety to purchasers. That is central. For unmistakably, Xiaomi has planned this telephone for the since a long time ago run furnishing it with upwards of 13 5G groups (n1/n3/n5/n7/n8/n20/n28/n38/n40/n41/n77/n78/n79). The OnePlus 9 Pro backings only two. 


Xiaomi additionally proceeded to add quick 67W remote charging and 67W wired charging however it is just packaging a 55W charger in the case (battery life is acceptable yet not class-driving) and IP68 rating to this telephone. That is pretty much everything, for a Xiaomi telephone. 

Mi 11 Ultra last musings 

The Mi 11 Ultra costs Rs 69,999 (12GB/256GB) in India. That is same as the OnePlus 9 Pro while simultaneously, it undermines the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (beginning Rs 1,05,999). 

The cornerstone of this new Xiaomi telephone is its courageous spotlight on taking on, not OnePlus, but rather Samsung in the top of the line cell phone space. It has tantamount equipment. With top of the line specs like high revive rate bended screens and best in class SoCs, huge batteries and quick charging turning into a staple among most premium telephones, it is the means by which these telephones utilize this tech to make your lives simpler that represents the deciding moment a cell phone today. For a telephone that feels so forward thinking, any vulnerability beside general accessibility (the telephone is at long last going on special in India in July, almost three months after dispatch) stands apart up front. 

On account of Xiaomi, there is additionally the stuff of discernment. 

With all that the Mi 11 Ultra packs inside, it was relied upon to be a quick telephone with a brilliant and bright screen, first rate sound, and great battery life. Its featuring highlight, the camera(s), likewise experiences everyone's expectations. Yet, then again, it doesn't actually waste time similarly as the Mi 3 or even the Mix 2. It is extraordinary, conceivably, yet it is more the amount of its parts as opposed to being without a doubt progressive. 

Another star has for sure entered the universe. Question is, would it be able to stay close by. 

Geniuses: Premium fired form, Class driving presentation, Excellent execution, Great cameras (both picture and video), Loud sound system speakers, Fast charging 

Cons: Unwieldy, Cameras need some tuning, Battery life could be better, Slow Android update rollout
