The company has unveiled its latest performance flagship phone, the Mi 11i, which features the latest Snapdragon 888 mobile platform, a Samsung E4 AMOLED display, a 120Hz refresh rate, Dolby Atmos and dual speakers, and a 4,520 mAh supersized battery — all in an elegant and lightweight design. The China version of the phone is the Redmi K40 Pro+, we have learned.
The Mi 11i comes in three colors: Sky Silver, Frosty White and Cosmic Black.
The Mi 11i comes in two storage versions: 8GB+128GB and 8GB+256GB, priced at 649 euros and 699 euros, respectively. The Mi 11i will soon be available for pre-ordering through all official Mi channels.
The Mi 11i is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 mobile platform. The flagship chipset features advanced 5nm process technology that delivers higher performance while reducing power consumption to deliver an ultra-fast and reliable user experience. The mobile platform is also the first to use the ARM Cortex-X1 super-large core, which greatly improves peak performance. At the same time, it is equipped with LPDDR5 storage and UFS 3.1 flash memory, which improves the flagship performance configuration of the Mi 11i.
The Mi 11i supports the latest generation of Wi-Fi 6. The phone’s Wi-Fi capability has been further improved, bringing the bandwidth up to 160MHz, while the 4096-QAM encoding provides higher information density and significantly boosts the peak speed to a maximum of 2.89Gbps. The Mi 11i can maintain a high-speed, low-latency, stable Wi-Fi connection even in a complex network environment with multiple devices.
In contrast to the Mi 11 and Mi 11 Ultra, the Mi 11i features a straight-panel display, while its premium glass body, 7.8mm thickness and redesigned side-mounted fingerprint scan provide a more comfortable grip and feel. With a 6.67-inch keyhole display, the Mi 11i offers an uninterrupted edge-to-edge viewing experience. The new Samsung E4 AMOLED display can achieve a peak brightness of 1300nits while consuming very little power. The display offers a stunning array of vibrant colors, supporting DCI-P3 gamut and HDR10+. Thanks to careful calibration, the device’s color accuracy reached JNCD 0.36, 0.35 and Δ E material material color expressive force. As a result, it received an A + rating from DisplayMate, A well-known display testing company, for excellent display performance.
With a 120Hz refresh rate, Mi 11i delivers a super-smooth and satisfying viewing experience from everyday swiping to playing high-frame-rate games and videos. Touch sampling rates up to 360Hz ensure extremely fast touch response times and excellent control in fast-paced games.
The Mi 11i supports 360° light sensing technology thanks to light sensors on the front and back of the device. The sensor’s role is to effectively improve the accuracy of automatic brightness, providing 8192 levels of brightness for a smoother, more accurate transition. The Mi 11i also has a special built-in ambient light sensor that adjusts the color temperature according to the light intensity of the external environment.
With Dolby Atmos and dual speakers, the Mi 11i creates a truly immersive audio experience. Dolby Atmos delivers incredible audio quality for headphone and speaker audio with unparalleled detail and depth. This professionally tuned sound will take users on an epic life journey while enjoying their favorite movies, TV shows and mobile games.
The Mi 11i is equipped with a 108-megapixel high-definition rear tri-camera array, which has the ability to take professional photos. The array consists of a 108 megapixel HD main camera, a 119° ultra-wide-angle camera and a 50mm equivalent focal length telephoto camera.
The 108-megapixel main camera offers excellent low-light shooting thanks to the support of 9 and 1, 2.1μm super pixels. In addition, dual-native ISO technology allows it to capture excellent detail in dark areas of the image, even when shot in bright light conditions, avoiding overexposure of bright areas. Accompanying the main camera is the 119° ultra-wide-angle camera, which is perfectly adapted to capture images of landscapes, buildings and people. Finally, the 5-megapixel telephia camera has an equivalent focal length of 50mm, which is twice the standard macro lens on the market today, allowing for higher magnification and a sharper focus on detail over the same distance.
The Mi 11i is designed with a series of features to improve the quality of shooting. First, unlike the standard two-microphone design of most smartphones, the Mi 11i uses a three-microphone setup for an audio zoom. When photographing a distant scene, the camera simply zooms in on the subject to capture clear audio. It can shoot video in 8K format and maintain high performance at night through Super Night View video mode. A range of additional AI and video editing features allow users to quickly and easily improve the quality of their images and complete their videos without having to buy expensive editing software.
At 7.8mm thick, the Mi 11i feels super light and comfortable in the hand, and has a stylish design without compromising battery life. Powering a typical 4,520 mAh battery, the smartphone can run all day without needing to be recharged. In addition, 33W quick charging technology allows it to go from low charge to 100% charge in just 52 minutes.
