Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi unveiled the Redmi Note 11T Pro and Note 11T Pro+ in May in China. Both smartphones were made available in black, silver, and blue colors. Now, the company has introduced the white variant of the Redmi Note 11T Pro.

The Redmi Note 11T Pro’s white model is dubbed the “Milk Salt White.” The company is yet to confirm its sale date. Also, it is unclear whether the Note 11T Pro+ will also be made available in white.

The Note 11T Pro comes in three variants, such as 8 GB RAM + 128 GB storage for 1,599 Yuan (~$237), 8 GB RAM + 256 GB storage for 1,899 Yuan (~$282), and 8 GB RAM + 512 GB storage for 2,099 Yuan (~$311).  The Note 11T Pro+ also comes in the same three configurations, which are priced at 1,999 Yuan (~$296), 2,199 Yuan (~$326), and 2,399 Yuan (~$356), respectively.

Redmi Note 11T Pro specifications

The Redmi Note 11T Pro has a 6.6-inch IPS LCD display that offers a Full HD+ resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The device comes preinstalled with the MIUI 13-based Android 12 OS. It comes equipped with a side-facing fingerprint scanner.

The Dimensity 8100 chipset is present under the hood of the device. It features LPPDR4x RAM and UFS 3.1 storage. The device houses a 5,080mAh battery with 67W fast charging support. The Note 11T Pro has a 16-megapixel front-facing camera and a 64-megapixel (main) + 8-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit.

The Note 11T Pro+ packs the same specs as the Note 11T Pro, but offers a smaller battery of 4,400mAh. It carries support for 120W fast charging.

The post Redmi Note 11T Pro’s new white variant launched appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi will be launching the Redmi K50i, its latest mid-ranger in the Indian market this week Wednesday at 12 PM New Delhi Time.

The brand has been teasing the launch of the Redmi K50i on its official social media accounts for a while, and currently, with what is available online so far, we have rounded up all the details that you should know about the Redmi K50i before its official launch.

Redmi K50i Specifications

The Redmi K50i is essentially a rebranded Poco X4 GT (that is available globally) or a rebadged Redmi Note 11T Pro (that is sold exclusively in China) which both we saw launched earlier in the year 2022.

Rebranding aside, the Redmi K50i is a very solid handset powered by MediaTek’s popular Dimensity 8100 SoC, found on competing devices, like the Realme GT Neo 3. Performance-wise, the SoC has proven to be competitive, as in early benchmarks with the Redmi K50i, it scored higher than both the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 devices, and the Apple A15 Bionic equipped smartphones in Antutu benchmark.

Powering the Redmi K50i is a 5080 mAh battery cell, with support for Xiaomi’s 67W fast wired charging solution, in which the 67W charger is included with the package. It will sport a 6.6-inch FHD+ IPS LCD screen with up to 144Hz refresh rate, up to 650 nits of peak brightness, and support for Dolby Vision content.

Cameras-wise, the Redmi K50i goes the conventional route with a triple camera setup at the rear and a selfie camera housed within the top centre punch hole in front of the display. The rear camera setup consists of a 64MP main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide unit, and a 2MP macro snapper, while the front facing camera has a high resolution 20MP camera for selfies and video calls.

Buyers will also be glad to hear that the Redmi K50i still retains the 3.5mm headphone jack, whilst still featuring a dual stereo speaker setup with support for Dolby Atmos. The Redmi K50i is also expected to feature great haptics as well with its linear x-axis vibration motor. The device comes equipped with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor and runs MIUI 13 based on Android 12 out of the box.

Redmi K50i Pricing, Colors and Storage Options

The Redmi K50i will be available in 3 show-stopping colour variants: Phantom Blue, Stealth Black, and Quick Silver.

And as for memory configurations, the device can be configured with up to 8GB of LPDDR5 RAM and up to 256GB of fast UFS 3.1 storage.

Pricing-wise, we have earlier reported on a leak that mentions that the base 6GB + 128GB variant will be priced between 24,000 INR and 28,000 INR (roughly 303 to 353 US Dollars), while the highest end 8GB + 256GB model will reportedly cost around 29,000 to 33,000 INR (roughly 367 to 417 US Dollars). The report also shared some availability details, like the Chinese tech giant partnering up with HDFC for instant discount offers for its customers.

For official pricing and availability of the Redmi K50i, stay tuned to our coverage of the July 20th launch here at Gizmochina, where we report the latest news on Chinese technology and gadgets!

Some of you may know that June 18 is the Chinese version of Black Friday. In order to sell as many phones as possible on this day, many brands choose to launch new budget phones to increase sales. For example, OnePlus launched the Ace Racing edition, HONOR launched the honor 70 series. And we also have a new model in our hands — the Redmi Note 11T Pro.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Design

The Note 11T Pro we’ve bought is the blue color model. You can also see a bit of red in the reflection of the light. Although the whole back panel and frame are made of plastic, the frosted material of the back panel makes it really feel quite like glass. The camera module is different from any previous Redmi phone, but it looks a bit like another brand’s phone. In addition to NFC, X-axis linear motor, and an infrared emitter, which everyone has, there is also a very interesting addition this time: the headphone jack, which many flagship phones do not have anymore.

You can’t expect a mid-range phone to have a great design. But as long as it can be fully functional and give us features like a headphone jack, I think it’s a good phone.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Display

Nowadays, there are more and more phones with OLED displays, and it’s getting harder to find a good LCD display phone. It just so happens that the Note 11T Pro uses a very good LCD screen for its price point. The screen on the 11T Pro+ is the only LCD screen on DisplayMate that received an A+. The Pro version uses the same screen, so the display is just as good. Ghosting control is also excellent, and it is barely noticeable to the human eye. The color accuracy is also factory calibrated and Redmi has even customized this LCD with a low blue light backlight. It supports Smart AdaptiveSync, which automatically drops the refresh rate to 50Hz when you’re not touching the screen. There are still many people who prefer LCD screen to OLEDs right? That’s because LCD is not only clearer at the same size and resolution, but also has full-scene DC dimming, which OLEDs can’t do. Lifespan is also longer than an OLED.

It is a pity that this excellent LCD is a bit poor in touch sampling rate. 

The highest 270Hz sampling rate can only be achieved when the refresh rate is less than 90Hz. LCD screen’s common problem is also present on the 11T Pro, which is a shadow around the hole punch area. Anyway, if you can’t accept the flicker or other drawbacks of OLED, then the Note 11 Pro is one of the few good options you have.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Processor & Gaming

The most powerful processor in the budget phone this year should be the Dimensity 8100. The Benchmark score is a little worse than the Redmi K50. But it is also the normal level for 8100. Gaming performance is significantly different from the K50. When the K50 first came out, it performed very well. Although the game frame rate of the K50 dropped a little after the system update, it could be due to the hot weather in summer, and Redmi had to consider the temperature factor. However, the gaming performance of the latest system version on the K50 is also very good. But the Note 11T Pro doesn’t seem to perform quite like a normal Dimensity 8100 phone. It looks like it’s trying to lock the game frame rate at the 50 or 45fps line, but the lag is keeping it from staying on a straight line. I know the lag has increased for the K50 in the latter half of the game, but at least the K50 performs very well in the first half. We’re not sure if this was intentional or unintentional on Redmi’s part – after all, there’s a $45 price difference between the K50 and the Note 11T Pro.

But we still recommend spending an extra $45 for the K50 instead of the Note 11T Pro o those who like to play Genshin Impact. Of course, if you’re just playing PUBG, then it’s definitely a breeze for the Note 11T Pro. However, it should be noted that the extreme frame rate is currently only enabled in Smooth Graphics.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Camera Performance

As you should know, Redmi’s photography has never been its strong point. But the Note 11T Pro still can take good pictures. The main camera is GW1, the same one as the Mi 11 Lite. But algorithm advancements have made the 11T Pro a better performer than the 11 Lite. The images are clear, with excellent dynamic range and vivid colors. The highlight control is particularly good for night scenes, which is an excellent level in the same class of phones. However, there is no OIS, so there is a possibility that the photos will be blurred in low light.

1 of 7

The ultra-wide camera, like other budget phones, takes very blurry pictures at night. The good thing is that the improvement in night mode is very obvious, as the noise control and clarity have become much better.

1 of 6

The video recording doesn’t give us much surprise, the main camera records up to 4k 30fps and the ultra-wide camera records up to 1080P 30fps. The dynamic range is average, and the main camera 4k 30fps does not support EIS. So the Note 11T Pro is not a very good video recording phone.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Battery & Charging Performance

Why we didn’t buy the Note 11T Pro+ over the Pro version was because we think you should be more interested in the Pro. The Pro+ has 120w charging power but only a 4400mAh battery. The Pro has only 67w charging power but comes with a larger 5080mAh battery. If you’ve watched our K50 review, you know how awesome the Dimensity 8100 with 5500mAh really is. Although we didn’t perform the battery drain test of Note 11T Pro, but referring to the battery drain test result of k50, it should easily last a whole day without charging, no matter how you use it.

The Redmi Note 11T Pro starts at 1699 RMB, which is roughly $255. If you compare its specs with those of the K50, you can think of the 11T Pro as the LCD version of the K50. So Redmi is clearly telling us: if you want a top-of-the-line 2K OLED screen, or a better gaming experience, choose the K50. If you want a more eye-friendly screen, want to save some money, or if you simply want a phone with a headphone jack, go with the Note 11T Pro.

The post Redmi Note 11T Pro Review: The K50 LCD version appeared first on Gizmochina.

Recently, Redmi launched the Redmi Note 11T Pro series in China. The lineup consists of two models — Redmi Note 11T Pro and Redmi Note 11T Pro Plus. 

Both the phones are almost identical. They only differ in terms of battery capacity, charging speed, and memory configurations.

However, today, we are not here to talk about their dissimilarities. Instead, we want to focus on their displays.

Why the Redmi Note 11T Pro series features an LCD panel?

The Redmi Note 11T Pro series sports an LCD screen. The handsets sacrifice an OLED display for a better processor – the Mediatek Dimensity 8100 SoC, which is found in phones more expensive than its price segment.

This is not the first time Redmi has used a similar strategy. The Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G (China) also lacked an OLED panel for the sake of a Mediatek Dimensity 1300 SoC.

Whereas, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G series (China) flaunts an OLED display. However, they are powered by a less powerful, mid-range Mediatek Dimensity 920 chip.

This is part of the new strategy laid out by Redmi last year, which involves releasing two Redmi Note lineups each year. One of them focuses on experience and the other on performance.

Going by the specs, one can clearly see that the Redmi Note 11T Pro series is all about performance. But there’s more to this phone than sheer performance. It also comes with one of the best LCD panels on a smartphone, at least on paper.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Series Display Specifications

The Redmi Note 11T Pro and the Redmi Note 11T Pro Plus arrive with a 6.6-inch LCD panel. The screen has a centered punch hole and a 20:5:9 aspect ratio with a resolution of 2460 x 1080 pixels (FHD+) and up to a 144Hz refresh rate. 

The display’s refresh rate automatically switches between 30Hz, 48Hz, 50Hz, and 60Hz during video playback. While gaming, it switches between 60Hz, 90Hz, 120Hz, and 144Hz.

Further, the panel features 2047 dimming levels and supports DC dimming as well as the DCI-P3 color gamut. Redmi even claims a color accuracy of ΔE≈0.44 in professional mode and JNCD≈0.36 in standard mode. For the unaware, even the 2K OLED display on the Redmi K50 series has the same color accuracy.

If that’s not enough, this smartphone display is one of the few to have support for Dolby Vision (in addition to HDR10) and hardware level low blue light mode, as well as auto color temperature mode. Most importantly, it is the only LCD panel to get an A+ rating from DisplayMate.

Going by the on-paper specs, we could only find three drawbacks of this screen. The screen only supports up to a 270Hz touch sampling rate and being an LCD panel, its contrast ratio and peak brightness are low at 1400:1 and 650 nits respectively.

Is the Redmi Note 11T Pro series’ display as good as the brand claims?

Unfortunately, we don’t have the answer for it right now. But you can expect our opinion once our review goes live in the coming days.

But for now, we can say that LCD panels on smartphones are not bad as most people would like you to believe. Recently, we reviewed the Oneplus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G, whose LCD screen turned out to be much better than we had anticipated.

Similarly, we did not have any issue with the LCD screen on the Redmi Note 10 Pro 5G. You won’t get deep blacks and more brightness in HDR videos. But that’s about it when it comes to the drawbacks, as other parameters are mostly comparable with an OLED display.

Redmi Note 11T Pro and Note 11T Pro+ was just announced in the Chinese market yesterday. But now, a new report has suggested that these smartphones might be rebranded under the POCO family for their global release.

The news arrives from tipster Kacper Skrzypek who stated that the Note 11T Pro series will be rebranded to the POCO X4 GT lineup. In other words, the Redmi Note 11T Pro will be rebadged to the POCO X4 GT while the Note 11T Pro+ will be the POCO X4 GT Pro for the global market. The tipster further added that there will also be slight changes as well, with the POCO X4 GT Pro featuring a 108 megapixel primary sensor compared to the Note 11T Pro+’s 64 megapixel sensor.

If this report is true, then we can assume the base POCO X4 GT to sport a 6.6 inch FHD+ display with a 144Hz pixels resolution, Dolby Vision, DC Dimming, and more. Under the hood, a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC will power the device along with a large 5,080mAh battery pack that supports 67W fast charging. On the other hand, the POCO X4 GT Pro will feature a 6.6 inch FHD+ IPS LCD display with a FHD+ pixels resolution, 20.5:9 aspect ratio, DC Dimming, a 144Hz refresh rate, and A+ DisplayMate rating as well.

Redmi has just held a new launch conference for the highly anticipated Note 11T series of smartphones. This includes the Note 11T Pro and Note 11T Pro+ model. So let’s have a look at their specifications, features, and pricing.

Design & Display

The two new smartphones feature the same design. On the rear, both handsets carry a rectangular camera module on the top left corner of the rear panel that houses three image sensors. Redmi has also placed a focus on cooling with the Note 11T series since they pack a powerful chipset. Thus, it houses VC liquid cooling technology to help keep thermals in check during intensive tasks like gaming. Apart from this, the brand even showed a video of the Note 11T Pro series undergoing various physical stress tests. This included drop tests, scratch tests, bend tests, and much more.

The Note 11T Pro+ sports a 6.6 inch IPS LCD panel that has LTPS technology, Full HD+ resolution, 20.5:9 screen aspect ratio, 144Hz refresh rate, DC dimming, and has an A+ rating from DisplayMate. Meanwhile, the Note 11T Pro features an identically sized 6.6 inch IPS LCD panel that also supports 144Hz refresh rate and has an A+ rating from DisplayMate as well as other similar specifications.

Specifications

The Chinese smartphone maker’s Note 11T Pro+ is touted to be a high end smartphone. Under the hood, it is equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 8100 5G chipset, which is based on the 4nm process node from TSMC. This chipset is paired with LPDDR5 RAM and UFS internal storage. A 4,400mAh battery pack powers the device, which supports a whopping 120W fast charging thanks to its Surge P1 chip. With just 19 minutes of charging, the handset can be charged from 0 to 100 percent. Other features include Dolby Atmos and Hi Res Audio certification for its stereo speakers, Bluetooth 5.3, 3.5mm headphone jack, infrared sensors, WiFi 6, and even NFC 3.0 support.

Arriving at the base Pro model, the Note 11T Pro is equipped with the newly announced MediaTek Dimensity 8100 SoC. Interestingly, the device houses a larger 5,080mAh battery pack that supports a slower but still capable 67W fast charging. This model also comes with many of the same features as the higher end variant, including 3.5mm headphone jack, WiFi 6, and others. So basically, the two models are the same phone, with the primary difference being storage configurations, battery size and fast charging rates.

Camera

Talking about the cameras, the Note 11T Pro+ will feature a triple camera setup on the rear. This module consists of a 64 megapixel Samsung ISOCELL GW1 primary sensor that features a 1/1.72 sensor size to let more light in and a 1.6μm pixel size. The primary sensor is paired with an 8 megapixel ultra wide angle lens and another 2 megapixel macro shooter. The Note 11T Pro also features the same image sensor setup.

Pricing & Availability

The Redmi Note 11T Pro+ will be available in three color options, namely Black, Blue, and Silver. On the other hand, the Note 11T Pro arrives in just the Silver and Blue color variants. Furthermore, it will also be released in multiple color options as well, so lets take a look at their pricing:

Note 11T Pro

The Redmi Note 11T series is scheduled to launch on May 24th (Tuesday) this week at 7pm Beijing Time (UTC +8) / 4:30pm Indian Standard Time (UTC +5:30) in China. The Redmi Note 11T will be the official spiritual successor to last year’s popular Redmi Note 10 series which focused on flagship-like level performance on affordable devices.

The company had earlier revealed that the Redmi Note 11T lineup will include two models: the Redmi Note 11T Pro and Redmi Note 11T Pro+. And here is what we know so far about the details of these 2 Redmi Note 11T devices.

Redmi Note 11T Pro Plus

The Redmi Note 11T Pro+ is slated to the be the flagship killer in the 2022 Redmi Note series, as the phone has been confirmed MediaTek’s Dimensity 8100 5G chipset manufactured by TSMC on their power-efficient 4nm nodes. 

The display of the Redmi Note 11T Pro+ is also flagship-level as well, because the device’s display got awarded by DisplayMate with the A+ rating, the highest rating in the display scoring system. What makes this achievement even more astounding is that the display is an LCD, rather than the OLEDs found on its competition.

The Redmi Note 11T Pro+ will be sporting a 6.6-inch 144 Hz FHD+ IPS LCD with industry-leading LTPS technology that allows for seamless variable refresh rates on the LCD display. The display will be in a customized 20.5:9 screen aspect ratio that offers immersive and crisp picture quality. The display panel of the smartphone also has DC dimming technology meaning it can replace the quick flashes on your display(PWM Flickering) with constant illumination(DC Dimming) when you want to turn the brightness down.

Coming to the cameras, the Redmi Note 11T Pro+ will be featuring a triple camera + flash setup at the back, where the main camera is Samsung’s 64MP ISOCELL GW1 sensor that features a 1/1.72 sensor size to let more light in and 1.6μm pixel pitch numbers to improve low-light night shots.

Other notable features of the smartphone are its stereo-speaker certified for Dolby Atmos and Hi-Res Audio compliant, Bluetooth 5.3 support, an enormous 5000mAh battery and insanely fast 120W fast charging with the charger included in the box. Despite being a flagship Redmi Note smartphone, Redmi had officially announced that the Redmi Note 11T Pro+ will be still featuring several legacy features such as the 3.5mm headphone jack, Infrared Sensors and Multifunctional NFC support.

Redmi Note 11T Pro 

As for the standard variant of the Redmi Note 11T Pro, the device will be powered by the newly announced MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC instead. The Dimensity 1300 is an overclocked version of last year’s Dimensity 1200 SoC giving more performance for the end user.

The vanilla Redmi Note 11T will be featuring the same 6.6-inch 144Hz FHD+ IPS LCD as the Plus variant, but the great news here is that the display is still certified A+ by DisplayMate. As for the battery, the Redmi Note 11T Pro has a 4,300mAh battery cell instead with support for slower 67W fast charging than the 120W found on the Plus variant. 

As for the other details such as the cameras of the Redmi Note 11T Pro, we only know that the device has triple rear camera + flash setup at the rear. Redmi has not announced any details of the camera setup yet, so we will have wait for the launch on May 24th for Redmi to reveal more details about the device.

Colours, Storage and Pricing

Both smartphones will come pre-installed with MIUI 13 based on Android 12 out of the box. The devices are confirmed to be at least available in two colourways: Blue and Silver.

As for the storage options for the devices, an earlier TENAA listing reveals that the memory configuratioms  are as follows:

• Redmi Note 11T Pro  6GB RAM + 128GB ROM
• Redmi Note 11T Pro  8GB RAM + 256GB ROM
• Redmi Note 11T Pro+  8GB RAM + 256GB ROM
