Design
At first glance, a lot of people may prefer the Redmi Note 11T 5G due to its punch-hole design, while the Vivo V23e 5G has a less modern waterdrop notch on the display. But if you dig deeper, you will discover that the Vivo V23e 5G is one of the thinnest and most lightweight mid-range phones from the last generation. For this reason, the Vivo V23e 5G attracts a lot of consumers who want a good phone to use with one hand and to keep in a pocket. Besides being thinner and lighter, it is even more compact than Redmi Note 11T 5G thanks to the presence of a smaller display.
Display
The Vivo V23e 5G has a better display than the Redmi Note 11T 5G for a simple reason: it comes with an AMOLED panel, while the latest Xiaomi budget phone has a classic IPS display with inferior image quality. Unlike the Vivo V23e 5G, you get a 90 Hz refresh rate with the Redmi Note 11T 5G, but the V23e 5G has richer colors and it even offers an in-display fingerprint reader for authentication (the Note 11T 5G has a less comfortable side-mounted fingerprint scanner).
Hardware/Software
The differences between the hardware of the Vivo V23e 5G and the Redmi Note 11T 5G are just marginal: both the phones are equipped with a Mediatek Dimensity 810 5G mobile platform built at 6 nm with a max frequency of 2.4 GHz. The highest-end memory configurations offer 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage. The handsets run Android 11 out of the box, customized by Funtouch OS and MIUI, respectively. They will both receive the update to Android 12 for sure.
Camera
The Vivo V23e 5G is definitely the best camera phone of this comparison. On the rear side, both the phones have a 50 MP main camera and an 8 MP ultrawide sensor, but the Vivo V23e 5G has an additional 2 MP camera for macros. Further, the V23e 5G has one of the best selfie cameras ever seen in the smartphone market, with a 44 MP resolution, an f/2.0 focal aperture, and 4K video recording with HDR. The selfie camera of the Redmi Note 11T 5G is just average with its 16 MP resolution.
Battery
The battery is the weakest point of the Vivo V23e 5G: with a capacity of just 4050 mAh, it does not shine in terms of battery life, but it features 44W fast charging thanks to which it reaches 100 percent in a low amount of time. On the other hand, the Redmi Note 11T 5G is a great battery phone with a 5000 mAh battery and 33W fast charging. It is able to last up to two working days of moderate usage, while you can use the Vivo V23e 5G for one day or so without charging it.
