Mi 11 Ultra review: Xiaomi unsettles the smartphone segment led by Samsung

Xiaomi’s premium flagship justifies its price tag of Rs 69,999 simply because it is significantly cheaper but in no way inferior to its peers that cost over Rs 100,000

Xiaomi is no newbie in the premium smartphone segment, but in India it is not so well known for its flagship offerings as it wasn’t until recently that this Chinese technology company started bringing such products here. Expanding its premium smartphone portfolio, the company recently launched the Mi 11 Ultra in India. Touted as ‘the Superphone’, this flagship smartphone is brimful with industry-leading features and specifications. That said, the Mi 11 Ultra is capable of beating other premium smartphones on more parameters than one, but the real-life experience shows it wanting in some areas.

Beginning with strengths, the Mi 11 Ultra is a spectacular smartphone with regard to display, audio, imaging, performance, and battery efficiency. The display is sharp, bright, vivid and responsive. It is loaded with value-added features like an adaptive refresh rate, motion smoothing, support for high dynamic range content (HDR10+ and Dolby Vision), etc. That said, the display is full of surprises and does not fail to impress, irrespective of what you throw at it to handle. Complementing the spectacular display are the stereo speakers tuned by Harman Kardon. The speakers are loud, clear and full of depth. They complete the audio experience by taking away the need to use an external speaker or any other audio accessory to amplify the sound.

Coming to the cameras, the Mi 11 Ultra ticks the boxes where it means the most. The smartphone has three camera sensors on the back, and each one has an independent utility. Importantly, each sensor has its own strengths and together they deliver a versatile and dependable imaging experience. The Mi 11 Ultra is equally good for videography too. It can record videos in the 8K resolution…
