Redmi Note 11T 5G went on sale in India earlier this week. The new Redmi phone is positioned as the successor to the Redmi Note 10T,, launched in India five months ago. Moreover, the Note 11T 5G is a rebadged Redmi Note 11 5G that debuted in China in October. Xiaomi offers dual rear cameras and a 90Hz non-AMOLED display on the Redmi Note 11T 5G. These changes were not impressive. The smartphone comes with the MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset made on the 6nm process. That should mean better energy efficiency.
On this week’s episode of Gadget’s 360 podcast Orbital, host Akhil Arora chats with Senior Reviewer Aditya Shenoy and Reviews Deputy Editor Roydon Cerejo to discuss all things Redmi Note 11T 5G.
Xiaomi released the Redmi Note 11T 5G shortly after the Redmi Note 10T launched in the country. The new phone does offer a slightly updated design and the MediaTek Dimensity 810 SoC. However, it has no noticeable changes representing a significant upgrade over the existing model.
Redmi Note 11T 5G price in India starts at Rs. 16,999 for the base version of 6 GB RAM + 64 GB storage. The phone also has a 6GB+128GB storage model for Rs. 17,999 and a premium option with 8GB RAM + 128GB storage for Rs. 19,999.
Shenoy spent some time with the Redmi Note 11T 5G – and in his review, he noted that it offers a decent display and battery life. However, there are some drawbacks, including the average performance of the dual rear camera.
Redmi Note 11T 5G Review: All About Performance?
One of the main selling points of the Redmi Note 11T 5G is its support for the next-generation mobile network. But of course, 5G connectivity is not yet available in India. We also don’t have a clear timeline on when exactly we’ll get support from the operator.
Xiaomi also seems to have cut costs on the Redmi Note 11T 5G by not giving features like a dedicated depth sensor or a more advanced 120Hz display. Annoyingly, these were available on the earlier Redmi Note models.
We also discuss whether the Redmi Note 11T 5G still justifies its price – and which phones you might want to consider instead.
