Design

These phones are built with premium materials, not the most premium ones, but they still have nice designs. They come with a glass back and the TCL 20 Pro 5G is my favorite one because it has a curved edge-to-edge display like flagships and non-protruding cameras. The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G is the thinnest and most lightweight device of the trio, while the OPPO Find X3 Lite is the most compact one. They all come with good designs including great attention to detail, so it is all about tastes.

 

Display

On the paper, the most advanced display seems to be the one found on the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G. It shows up to one billion colors, it has the HDR10+ certification and a 90 Hz refresh rate. But the TCL 20 Pro might surprise you with its NXTVISION 2 technology: unfortunately, it does not provide a high refresh rate, but TCL is able to deliver a stunning image quality as one of the best TV manufacturers out there. The OPPO Find X3 Lite still has a very good display with its AMOLED panel and 90 Hz refresh rate.

 

Hardware/Software

The most powerful device of this comparison is the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G for a simple reason: it has a better chipset. It is the first phone in Europe powered by the Snapdragon 780G mobile platform, which is actually the best Qualcomm’s mid-range processor. The chip is paired with up to 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of UFS 2.2 internal storage. Right after, we have the OPPO Find X3 Lite with a Snapdragon 765G, 8 GB of RAM, and 128 GB of UFS 2.1 native storage. TCL 20 Pro 5G is still great with its Snapdragon 750G, but it has just 6 GB of RAM. Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G and TCL 20 Pro 5G feature expandable storage, while OPPO Find X3 Lite does not. All are based on Android 11.

 

Camera

If you need the best rear cameras, you should go for the TCL 20 Pro 5G. It is the only one to feature OIS for the main sensor and it even comes with a better 16 MP ultrawide camera. The second place goes to the OPPO Find X3 Lite packing a 64 MP quad-camera and a great 32 MP front snapper.

 

Battery

TCL 20 Pro 5G has a bigger 4500 mAh battery and it should provide a longer battery life. Further, it is the only one with wireless charging. However, the TCL 20 Pro 5G has slower charging speeds: if you need the fastest charging phone, you should go for the OPPO Find X3 Lite featuring 65W fast charging.

 

Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G vs TCL 20 Pro 5G vs OPPO Find X3 Lite: Price

TCL 20 Pro 5G is priced at €549/$660 in the European market, OPPO Find X3 Lite costs €499/$600, and Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G carries a €449/$540 price tag. Overall, on the paper, the most advanced device is actually the TCL 20 Pro 5G with its bigger battery, faster charging, unique design, amazing cameras with OIS. But on the software side, Xiaomi and OPPO are better. With the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G you also get a stronger chipset and amazing display, while OPPO Find X3 Lite has inferior hardware but a faster charging technology and a better camera than Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G.
