Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G is a new midrange, with a great value proposition. It packs a very fast MediaTek Dimensity 810 5G chipset, a huge 6.6-inch LCD 90Hz screen, a great 50MP camera, a huge 5000 mAh battery, 33W fast charging and a side mounted finger print scanner. At its price, it’s truly a great bargain.

Design

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G comes with a 6.6-inch 90Hz LCD screen with a center punch hole design for the selfie camera. It’s a beautiful device, with a screen to body ratio of 83.4%. It has a refresh rate of 90Hz refresh rate, an aspect ratio of 20:9 and supports HD10+ which makes it an absolute delight to consume media with. It has a plastic frame and back, and a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 front panel. It is quite bright and vivid, peaking at 450 nits. Its rated for IP53 dust and splash protection, which means it’s not waterproof. Like many Xiaomi Redmi phones, it comes with an IR blaster and, fortunately, a headphone jack. It has a physical fast fingerprint sensor, conveniently placed on its side, integrated into the power button. It supports stereo speakers, which are great for playing media.

Performance

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G brings in the heat with the midrange MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset, making it very fast and great for gaming. It has a Cortex Octa-core CPU paired with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU, with storage options of 6/8 GB for RAM & 64/128 GB for ROM. It comes with a hybrid expandable memory option, which it shares with the sim slot. Paired with the 90Hz screen, running the latest Android 11 with a MIUI 13 skin on top, the performance feels very fast and premium. No lags or slow transitions on this one. Everything feels fast, fluid and rich in colour.

Cameras

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G has a quad camera arrangement on the back. It comes with a generous 50 MP primary sensor, for those excellent daylight photos. The ultra-wide is an 8MP lens, with a 120˚field of view, giving it great immersion for those landscape or group photos. There is an extra 2MP macro telephoto lens for those nice, close up photos. It also has a 2MP depth sensor. The video can support up to 4K video at 30 fps, with HDR support & gyro-EIS stability assistance. It can also record 1080p video at 30/60 fps. The selfie camera is a decent 13MP wide sensor, capable of 1080p video at 30fps. The selfies are great and well lit.

Other features

We can’t fail to mention the charging speeds in the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11S 5G. At 33W fast charging, the phone can get to fully charged in about 59 mins. That in addition to the fact that it also comes with a Li-Po 5000mAh non-removable battery, which is rather generous. Even with the high refresh rate screen, this should be more than enough. The main concession would be that there is no wireless charging here. It also supports NFC for contactless paying. It comes in Midnight Black, Star Blue and Twilight Blue.

Similarly, priced phones would include Samsung Galaxy F42, Oneplus 6, the Infinix Note 11 Pro and Oppo A74. the main distinctions at this price point is often a choice of better camera or more memory. The sizes are usually standard and the batteries are often huge. It’s unlikely there are wireless charging options as the price is around the lower midranges.

The design is great, in addition to the high end cameras installed. The OS will feel right at home, especially if you have used a Xiaomi phone before.
