Seems like Xiaomi Mi 11 is the killer of Galaxy S21

The company of Xiaomi currently is making no secret about who should buy the new Mi 11. “The Mi 11 is for movie lovers,” said by Xiaomi boldly on its website. Whether you are enjoying movies on the luscious display or shooting your own movies with the pixel-rich camera, Xiaomi Mi 11 is all about the cinematic experience. But the phone is so much more than that. Is a phone such as the Xiaomi Mi 11 able to convince Samsung and Apple owners to jump ship?

Something you need to know about the Xiaomi Mi 11!

The Mi 11 is Xiaomi’s first flagship of 2021 and it contends with the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S series, as well as the best from Apple, Google, Oppo, and other brands. The company went all out. Not only does the phone boast a stunning design, but it also packs an impressive spec sheet. It’s a high-end phone for everyday creators, those who capture their world in all its forms as they walk through it.

Xiaomi has checked off all the boxes as it designed the Mi 11. It boasts a thinner, lighter build than last year’s Mi 10 and it comes in attractive frosted glass colorways. If you want sleek, the Mi 11 has you covered.

As for the phone, it is a metal and glass sandwich. Contoured glass slabs are fitted to the aluminum frame snugly. I particularly like the way the glass tapers near the side edges, which makes the phone more comfortable to carry around whether in your hand or your pocket. The metal frame is slim along the side rails and forms end caps on the top and bottom edges. The materials, fit, and finish are all top-notch. I tested the Horizon Blue model and I found its color-shifting look to be very attractive.

Big display actually makes for a large phone. You can’t have one without the other. The Mi 11 stands tall, but the slim aspect ratio of the display makes for a narrow-waisted phone. This helps with usability.Weight is really balanced. I found the phone comfortable to hold and use in all manner of positions; it never felt awkward.

Controls and ports are standard for a modern flagship. The screen lock button and volume toggle are on the right edge of the phone. They have good profiles and excellent action. The SIM tray is tucked into the bottom edge of the phone. It supports up to two SIM cards, but not memory cards. Along the bottom, you’ll also find the USB-C port, a microphone, and a speaker. A second speaker is located on the top edge, as are more microphones. I’ll take this opportunity to point out that the phone supports stereo sound that’s been tuned by Harmon. The brightness and clarity are excellent, as is bass response all things considered. The speakers can easily fill a typical room with sound.

Last, the phone’s fingerprint reader is built into the display. It’s a breeze to set up and use, and I found it consistently quick and accurate.

Regarding the screen, the 6.81-inch AMOLED screen is set to Full HD+ resolution and 60Hz refresh rate. You can ramp the resolution up to WQHD+ and the refresh rate up to 120Hz if you wish. Unlike some devices (ahem, Samsung), the Mi 11 allows you to set the high resolution and high refresh rate at the same time. In this setting, the refresh rate will jump around from as low as 30Hz to as high as 120Hz depending on what you’re doing. With these settings turned up, the screen looks fantastic.
