For those unaware, DxOMark is a known firm that tests and reviews cameras and smartphones cameras, being a known benchmarking platform as well in the industry. Looking at scores, the Xiaomi 11T scored 108 points in total, with the Photo category scoring 111 points while the Zoom and Video segments scores 42 and 105 points respectively. Despite the base 11T and 11T Pro featuring the same camera hardware, the Pro performed noticeably higher scoring 117 points.

So, the difference is likely the processor, with the former featuring a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 SoC while the latter sports a Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 SoC. According to DxOMark, the difference “goes to show that chipset and tuning have a big impact on image quality.” Coming back to the review, the firm praised the device for its accurate autofocus in outdoors and indoors environments. Furthermore, it even offered low noise in photos in videos as well. It was also touted for its color rendering in videos, which even retained great detail.

However, DxOMark found a loss of fine detail in photo mode and images also had unnatural skin tones in some images. The autofocus also fails and is unstable in low light scenarios. While zooming the smartphone unfortunately offered low levels of detail and night shots were often underexposed, which again goes to show how big an impact a chipset and tuning has on image quality.
