Xiaomi's devices are becoming increasingly popular, with handsets such as the Xiaomi 12 proving to be fierce competitors for global behemoths such as Samsung, Apple, and OnePlus. However, not everyone is willing to spend a lot of money on one of the best phones money can buy.

Redmi is Xiaomi's response to this, offering a range of smartphones with a similar look and feel to their flagships but at a much lower price.

Especially given its low price. So, how does the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G stack up? To make a long story short, it isn't all that different, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Continue reading to learn more about it.

XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 11 PRO 5G REVIEW: DESIGN AND DISPLAY

(Image credit: Mi)

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is sharp and angular, with completely flat surfaces on both sides, making it stand out from the crowd of cheap phones on the market right now. In fact, it resembles some recently released flagships, such as the Samsung Galaxy S22.

It is available in three colours: graphite grey, polar white, and star blue. I tried out the first one, and it looks great, though I'd call it black rather than grey. It's smooth and completely matte; even in direct sunlight, it doesn't listen

The first thing I noticed when I took the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G out of the box was how light it was (202g) despite having a similar-sized screen to the Oppo Find X5 Pro (218g) or the Huawei Mate 40 Pro (202g) (212g). While it may not appear to be a significant difference, in terms of comfort and ease of use, the lighter the better.

It is a fairly standard size for a smartphone with a 6.67-inch screen, measuring 164.19 x 76.1 x 8.12mm. It's a little wide for my small hands, but it shouldn't be a big deal for most people.

Things are exactly as you would expect them to be around the frame. There is a volume rocker, a USB-C port, and a power button that also serves as a fingerprint sensor for unlocking the phone. Such side-mounted sensors are fine and relatively accurate, but they require a bit more of a stretch for your thumb than one located within the display.

Do you still use wired headphones? Because the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G lacks a 3.5mm headphone jack, you'll either need to use Bluetooth or purchase a USB-C adaptor.

With an IP53 rating, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G has limited water and dust resistance, so it will withstand light rain but not a dunk in the sea, for example. The phone's body appears to be relatively durable despite being made of plastic. It may be prone to a few scratches here and there, but it comes with a protective case in the box.

The flat 6.67-inch display has a resolution of 2400 x 1080p (FHD) and a peak brightness of around 1,200 nits. While it cannot compete with the most expensive flagships in terms of colour vibrancy or clarity, it is one of the better screens available among the low-cost phone crowd. The screen also feels silky smooth to use, thanks to its 120Hz refresh rate, whether you're flicking through menus or playing mobile games.

It's difficult to distinguish the display from last year's handset because they've reused and recycled it, but I don't blame them because it looks really good for the price. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is ideal for watching videos or doing online shopping.

XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 11 PRO 5G REVIEW: CAMERA SYSTEM 

(Image credit: Mi)

Given how inexpensive this phone is, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G's camera system is surprisingly effective. That's not to say it can compete with devices that cost twice as much, but when compared to other low-cost phones, Redmi is on to something.

A 108MP wide camera, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro camera are among the three rear lenses. A 16MP front camera is available for taking selfies. Take a look at some examples of smartphone photography below.

Photos taken with the default point-and-shoot settings looked quite good, especially on a sunny day. The colours are accurate, and there is a good amount of balance between light and dark areas of the shot for the most part, though not always.

If you look closely, you'll notice that the photos aren't as detailed as you'd find elsewhere, and they lack the punch that you'd find on a more expensive piece of equipment. When the lighting is right, however, whether you're photographing cityscapes, people, or getting up close to your subject, the shots look great.

XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 11 PRO 5G REVIEW: PERFORMANCE AND BATTERY 

.

(Image credit: Mi)

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G, which is powered by the mid-range Snapdragon 695 chipset, promises to be a'smooth and reliable smartphone.'

The processor is accompanied by a Qualcomm Adreno 619 GPU, 6GB or 8GB of RAM, and up to 128GB of storage, which can be expanded with a MicroSD card.

You also get 5G support, which means you'll be able to take advantage of the fastest connection speeds possible when you're out and about, assuming your area is prepared for it.

The phone feels perfectly fine to use; it won't deliver outstanding performance, but it will suffice for most tasks. I just wouldn't use it for larger mobile games like Call of Duty Mobile because it will struggle to load them and may begin to heat up.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G scored 691 in single-core and 1,749 in multi-core on the Geekbench 5 benchmarking test, placing it at a similar level of performance to handsets like the Vivo V21 5G but far behind some of our favourite low-cost phones like the OnePlus Nord CE 2.

A 5,000mAh battery will keep you going all day - it worked well for me. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G still had some battery life left after watching a few videos, answering messages, and opening apps throughout the day.

Over the course of two hours, I downloaded and watched an HD video. During that time, the battery level dropped by 12%, implying that it would have lasted nearly 17 hours in total. That's about as good as a smartphone gets.

Charging it again took about an hour and a half, which isn't too long to wait but isn't as quick as some devices' 30-minute charging times.

MIUI 13 is in charge, and it is based on Android 11. Despite being brand new for 2022, the phone still does not ship with the most recent Android 12, though it will receive OS updates for the next three years.

The operating system itself is simple to use, though it does come pre-installed with a slew of useless apps, such as random games and shopping apps, so when you boot it up for the first time, you may find that you have to spend some time removing the ones you don't want.

XIAOMI REDMI NOTE 11 PRO 5G REVIEW: VERDICT 

(Image credit: Mi)

As far as low-cost smartphones go, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is unquestionably one of the best. Even though it isn't all that different from last year's handset, it represents excellent value for money.

The performance may not be up to par, and the operating system may have flaws, but those are the only significant complaints I have about it.

Aside from that, the 6.67-inch screen is large and bright, the battery lasts a long time, and the camera system can take some really nice shots when the lighting is just right.
