Xiaomi yesterday launched the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G as the Redmi Note 11E Pro in China as the fifth addition to the lineup in the country. But that didn’t appear to be enough for the company as it today announced a vanilla variant of the model. Called the Redmi Note 11E 5G, the phone has been revealed to go on sale starting March 18.
The announcement also teases some of the specifications of the device. For photography, you get a dual-camera setup comprised of a 50MP primary camera and a 2MP depth sensor. Selfies are handled by a 5MP shooter at the front, housed within a waterdrop notch.
The phone supports 5G, made possible by the Dimensity 700 processor, and its display is a 90Hz 6.58″ FHD+ panel. The battery is sized 5,000mAh.
But perhaps the most interesting bit is the rear of the Redmi Note 11E 5G, which can easily be mistaken for being an OPPO offering from afar. The camera island looks quite similar to the one from the OPPO Reno7 so it’s obvious where Redmi has picked design cues from.
Anyway, you’ll need to spend about 1,199 Yuan (around $190) for the 4GB+128GB variant while the 6GB+128GB will set you back by 1,299 Yuan (around $205). Both are considerably cheaper than its Pro variant’s price of 1,699 Yuan (around $270).
