Xiaomi 11T Pro Finally Receives Android 12 MIUI 13 Update

The Xiaomi 11T Pro is one of the more premium offerings from Xiaomi with its Snapdragon 888 flagship chipset and 108MP Samsung HM2 flagship sensor. However, Xiaomi had already pushed out the Android 12 updates to its more budget offerings first like the Redmi 10, Redmi Note 10, Redmi Note 10 Pro while the Xiaomi 11T Pro had not yet received any news of its Android 12 update.

Well, the good news is that from today, Xiaomi is officially pushing out the Android 12 based stable MIUI 13 update to Xiaomi 11T Pro users worldwide!

Since the Xiaomi 11T Pro has just received the Android 12-based MIUI 13 update, here are the new features and system optimisations Xiaomi made that you need to know.

For new features, there are 3 things to note:

Xiaomi has added a new widget ecosystem with app support.
A new super wallpapers lineup is added to MIUI 13 called “Crystallization”.
Apps can be opened as floating windows directly from the sidebar.

For system optimisations, there are 3 things to note as well:

Improved overall system stability in MIUI 13.
Enhanced accessibility support for Phone, Clock, and Weather system apps.
MIUI Mind map nodes are more convenient and intuitive now.

The changelog is quite short. However, Xiaomi does indeed provide more features for its MIUI over time and considering that MIUI 13 is still in its toddler stages, more features and optimisations can be added over the year 2022.

The Xiaomi 11T Pro was originally launched globally 5 months ago on September 15, 2021. The device came preinstalled with MIUI 12.5 based on Android 11. During the launch, Xiaomi brought great news for Xiaomi 11T and 11T Pro buyers that their phones would be guaranteed for 3 major Android OS updates and 4 years of security updates. To elaborate, the Xiaomi 11T Pro will not only receive the Android 12 update, but also the Android 13 and Android 14 update as well in the upcoming years.

This was a first from Xiaomi to guarantee long term software updates for their flagships and it also benefits the environment as well, since users won’t be as eager to upgrade their phones if their phones still run on perfectly capable hardware running on supported software by the phone manufacturer.

New renders of the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 11T series have just surfaced. The new leak arrives just a few days prior to the launch date, and also reveal list of products that the company will be launching in about a week.

The new renders were shared by known tipster Ishan Agarwal and PriceBaba ahead of the series September 15 launch event.

Furthermore, Ishan Agarwal also claimed that the Mi Pad 5 tablet and the Mi 11 Lite 5G NE will also be announced at the same event, while also revealing a key detail regarding the upcoming launch of the tablet.

Looking at the Mi 11 Lite 5G NE render first, it seems that the Chinese tech giant will be releasing the device in color options similar to the Mi 11 Lite 4G but with a new white color variant as well. The Mi 11 Lite 5G NE can be spotted in Vinyl Black, Tuscany Coral, and Jazz Blue. The NE in the model name stands for New Edition, with this model featuring a Snapdragon 778 SoC over the Snapdragon 780 chip on the regular Mi 11 Lite 5G. Although, rest of the specifications are expected to be mostly the same.

Arriving at the Mi 11T series, the base and Pro variant of the smartphones can be spotted in white, blue, and grey colors. Furthermore, these are similar to a previous listing which found that the color options are called Meteorite Gray, Celestial Blue, and Moonlight White. The renders also reveal the positioning of the volume rockers and the recessed power button, which is likely the embedded fingerprint scanner.

Notably, the tipster also revealed the European pricing of the upcoming Mi Pad 5 as well. The tablet will be available in global markets in a single storage variant with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage and carry a price tag of 399 Euros (roughly 472 US Dollars).

Earlier today (23rd August 2021), Xiaomi announced that it will be hosting a new product launch event on 15th September 2021. While the company has yet to reveal which product it plans on unveiling next month, it is expected to launch the Mi Pad 5 tablet series and the Mi 11T smartphone for the global market.

The Chinese tech giant shared the news through its official Twitter handle stating that “We promise this will be an exciting moment for all of you!” Unfortunately, the company did not reveal any finer details regarding the September 15 global launch event. Although, it is likely that the brand will officially announce the Mi Pad 5 series of tablets in the global market. Furthermore, the company could also launch the Mi 11T along with the new tablet lineup as well.

Previously, we had exclusively reported on Xiaomi planning on launching the Mi Pad 5 series in Europe next month. At that time, there was no word on the official date for announcement, but it now seems that we can expect a global release on September 15. Similarly, we had also reported on the company gearing up to launch the Mi 11T next month as well. However, unlike the Mi Pad 5, our sources had revealed that the brand would launch the new smartphone on September 23.

So, Xiaomi might have possibly moved up the date to launch both the tablet and handset together. Or, the device could arrive a few days later. Keep in mind that this is still speculation as of right now, so take this report with a pinch of salt and stay tuned as we will be covering the global product launch event and any other updates that surface regarding this matter as well.

Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro flagship smartphone’s alleged specs leaks ahead of launch next month

Jeet — Fri, 20 Aug 2021 05:33:43 +0000

Xiaomi has launched several smartphone models under its flagship Mi 11 lineup this year and now the Chinese tech giant is preparing to launch yet another model — Mi 11T Pro.

There have been a few leaks related to the upcoming smartphone from Xiaomi and now, in the latest development, a Vietnamese Youtube channel has shed more light on what we can expect from the upcoming Mi 11T Pro flagship smartphone.

In terms of build, the report says that the phone will come with a glass back panel but the frame will have a metal build to make the phone sturdy. As for housing the front-facing camera, there will be a punch-hole cutout on the display.

Talking about the display, Digital Chat Station recently claimed that compared to its predecessor, Xiaomi will be reducing the screen refresh rate from 144Hz to 120Hz but will offer an AMOLED screen instead of the LCD panel on the Mi 11T series.

Underneath, the smartphone will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 or the Snapdragon 888+ chipset. Recently, a Xiaomi smartphone with model number 2108111RG, powered by MediaTek Dimensity processor was certified and is believed to be the upcoming Mi 11T and the chipset is likely to be the Dimensity 1200 SoC.

Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro

There’s nothing much known about the camera configuration for the Mi 11T Pro. However, for the standard Mi 11T, the company is expected to continue offering the same camera configuration as the Mi 11 Lite. This means that the phone could have a triple-camera setup consisting of a 64-megapixel primary sensor, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, and a 5-megapixel tele-macro lens. On the front side, the device could have a 16-megapixel snapper for taking selfies and video calling.

The smartphone is expected to be running the Android 11 operating system with the company’s own MIUI 12.5 custom user interface. The device is said to be powered by a 5,000mAh battery and has support for 120W fast charging technology. As for the launch date, we exclusively reported that the Mi 11T series could go official on 23rd September.

Note: The article has been updated to reflect that information related to display and camera configuration mentioned in the video is more of a wishlist. Instead of relying only on this video, we have cited other reports about those claims.

Exclusive: Xiaomi Mi 11T global launch could be in September on this date

Habeeb Onawole — Thu, 19 Aug 2021 13:37:09 +0000

Just like OnePlus, Xiaomi has made it a tradition to launch a T-variant of its flagship phones in the second half. This year will be no different as details of the Mi 11T series have been floating around. Now, we have gotten info on when the launch will happen.

Xiaomi Mi 10T 5G series

According to our source, the Mi 11T is scheduled to be announced on September 23 at a global launch event. The Mi 10T series launched on September 30 last year, so there isn’t a wide gap in the dates. While our source says the date is pretty much certain, we won’t rule out the possibility of a change happening due to unforeseen circumstances.

The global launch should be followed by individual announcements in countries such as India, Indonesia, and Nigeria. These are all markets that the Mi 10T series was announced, so we expect the Mi 11T series will also get unveiled there. They may also launch in China under different names.

Leaked specs have revealed that the Mi 11T will have a 120Hz display which is lower than the 144Hz refresh rate of its predecessor. However, the display is said to be OLED this time around and not LCD. It has also been reported that it will have 64MP triple rear cameras and a MediaTek processor. There is also going to be a Mi 11T Pro but its specifications are currently unknown.

Xiaomi Mi 11T key specifications leaked, reveals 120Hz display, 64MP triple cameras, and more

Last year in October, Xiaomi announced the Xiaomi Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro flagship phones powered by the Snapdragon 865 chip. Recent reports have revealed that the company could be working on Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro as their successor models. A fresh leak by Xiaomiui Twitter handle has revealed the key specs of the Mi 11T.

The leak reveals that the Xiaomi Mi 11T arriving in the global and Indian market is codenamed as Amber. It will be sporting a 20:9 display that offers a refresh rate of 120Hz. It will be powered by a MediaTek chip. For photography, it will feature a triple camera unit comprising a 64-megapixel OmniVision OV64B primary camera, a Sony IMX355 wide lens, and a telemacro camera that offers 3x zoom.

Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro 5G and Mi 10T 5G

A variant of the same device will be releasing in China with the Redmi K40 Ultra moniker. Codenamed as Agate, the device will feature a 20:9 aspect ratio screen that offers a 120Hz refresh rate. It will be a MediaTek chip-powered device featuring a triple camera setup that features a 108-megapixel Samsung HM2 primary camera, a Sony IMX355 wide-angle lens, and a telemacro camera with 3x zoom.

The model number of Xiaomi Mi 11T’s global variant (21081111RG) was recently spotted at an Indonesian certification site. Since it is expected to rival the OnePlus Nord 2, it is likely to feature the Dimensity 1200 chipset.

The Mi 10T series were equipped with 144Hz LCD panels. A recent leak revealed that the upcoming Mi 11T models will be flaunting 120Hz OLED panels. There is no word on the launch date of the device. Probably, the Redmi model will go official first in China, whereas the Mi 11T series may hit the global/Indian market by October.

Xiaomi Mi 11T powered by MediaTek Dimensity processor gets certified

Jeet — Tue, 10 Aug 2021 02:54:38 +0000

Xiaomi is all set to announce its new devices at a launch event tomorrow in China. The company will be launching the Mi MIX 4, Mi Pad 5, a stylus, next-generation OLED Smart TV, a high-end smart speaker, and more.

With all these devices in the pipeline, there’s another device the Chinese company is gearing up to launch. Xiaomi is preparing to launch a new model under its current-generation Mi 11 series flagship lineup, dubbed Xiaomi Mi 11T.

Xiaomi’s Mi 10T Pro 5G

Ahead of its official launch, the Mi 11T smartphone has been certified in Indonesia. The phone, which carries model number 21081111RG, is said to come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity processor.

However, at this time, the exact model of the chipset is not known. Given that it’s a flagship-grade smartphone, we expect the device to come powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 SoC.

It’s noteworthy that this will be the first smartphone from Xiaomi in the Mi 11 lineup to come packed with a MediaTek chipset. All the devices launched so far in this series come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon processor.

Similar to its predecessor, this upcoming smartphone is expected to come in two different models — Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro. Recently, the tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that the Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro will feature a 120Hz OLED display instead of the 144Hz LCD screen found in the Mi 10T series.

As of now, there’s not much known about these new upcoming smartphones but we expect the devices to get launched in the coming weeks. The company is also working on Mi 11 Lite NE model for the Indian market.

Xiaomi is already selling the Mi 11 Lite 4G and Mi 11 Lite 5G in multiple markets. According to a reliable tipster Kacper Skrzypek, the company is working on another Lite monikered device for India called the Mi 11 Lite NE.

Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite NE may debut in September in India

#EXCLUSIVE: "lisa" device is #Mi11LiteNE, at least in India. What does NE mean…? New Era? Who knows? And how will it be called on Global? pic.twitter.com/ebpC4hFAhc

— Kacper Skrzypek (@kacskrz) August 2, 2021

According to the tipster, the Mi 11 Lite NE is codenamed as “lisa” and it is powered by the Snapdragon 778G chipset. The model number of this is 2109119DI. This model has already received certification from the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS). The “2109” model number indicates that this device may debut in India in September. Unfortunately, no other details of the smartphone are known yet.

While India was treated with the Mi 11 Lite 4G, the company is yet to release its 5G sibling in the country. Probably, instead of releasing the Snapdragon 780G chip powered Mi 11 Lite 5G, the company may unveil the Mi 11 Lite NE in India. However, the Lite NE phone may borrow some of its specs from the Mi 11 Lite 5G.

The Mi 11 Lite 5G has a 6.55-inch AMOLED FHD+ display, Snapdragon 780G SoC, up to 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM, up to 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage, and a 4,250mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging. It has a 20-megapixel front camera and a 64-megapixel + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) + 5-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit.

Mi 11T series to ditch LCD panel

The Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro smartphones that debuted last year came with a 144Hz refresh rate supporting LCD screens. The Mi 10T was rebranded as the Redmi K30S handset in China. A recent report revealed that the company is now working on the Mi 11T and Mi 11T Pro (2107113SG model number) smartphones. Tipster Digital Chat Station has claimed that the Mi 11T series will be equipped with a 120Hz OLED screen instead of a 144Hz LCD screen.

Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro moniker spotted, launch could be drawing near

Anvinraj Valiyathara — Mon, 02 Aug 2021 07:44:29 +0000

A new Xiaomi phone with model number 2107113SG has received certification from the Malaysian SIRIM authority. The listing reveals that this device will be released in Malaysia with the Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro moniker.

The SIRIM listing has no information available on the specifications of the Mi 11T Pro. The existence of the Pro model suggests that there could be a vanilla variant called the Mi 11T. Apart from SIRIM, the Mi 11T Pro name and the model number have also appeared in the IMEI database.

Xiaomi Mi 11T Pro receives the SIRIM certification in Malaysia. Moniker confirmed. Plus, the device has already received the FCC certification in the past.
Also, Mi 11T is also likely to launch.

— Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) August 2, 2021

The Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro smartphones from last year were driven by the Snapdragon 865 mobile platform. Hence, it is likely that the Mi 11T series could be equipped with a Snapdragon 8-series flagship chip. It remains to be seen whether the company powers the Mi 11T duo with Snapdragon 870 or Snapdragon 888.

Xiaomi Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro specifications

The Xiaomi Mi 10T has a 6.67-inch IPS LCD 144Hz FHD+ display with Gorilla Glass 5 protection, MIUI 12 based on Android 12 OS, and a side-facing fingerprint scanner.

The rear camera of the Mi 10T Pro has a 64-megapixel primary camera, a 13-megapixel ultrawide lens, and a 5-megapixel macro camera. It has a selfie camera of 20-megapixel.

Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro

The Mi 10T has a 5,000mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging. The Mi 10T Pro has an OIS-enabled 108-megapixel primary camera instead of the 64-megapixel lens found on the Mi 10T. The rest of the specs are identical on both phones.

The MI 10T was rebadged as the Redmi K30S phone in China. Hence, it is likely that the Mi 10T could be heading to China as a Redmi K40 series phone or Redmi K40S branding.
