Android version and market relevance

Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra is smartphone of 2021, which was officially announced in March the world′s electronics manufacturer — the company Xiaomi. In addition, this smartphone supports the work of two SIM cards, here you are, and please, the first reason for buying this model (or any other dual-smartphone from the catalog).

In 2021 this new model works out of the box running the Android operating system 11. But in the market of android-smartphones an important factor when buying a new device is the possibility of updating it to a fresh version of the OS. So Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra has not received any software updates, which is very sad, so we advise you to look at other DROID-smartphones in our catalog.

There is another feature of this model — it works in the fifth generation networks (5G). This means that you can watch online video in 4K or even 8K quality without loading delay, you can play online games without freezing the interface. All 5G smartphones save battery power and can run longer than on 3G\LTE networks.

Screen, body and battery

Very capacious Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra battery received a volume of 5 000 mAh. In this case, the smartphone has huge touchscreen AMOLED with diagonal 6.81″ and with refresh rate 120 Hz. As it is now fashionable in smartphone design, this model also received a punch-shaped cutout above the screen. And besides, the front panel is more than 90% occupied by the touchscreen. This model has a built-in additional 1.1-inch AMOLED selfie display-screen. This is such a chip, because of which you can buy this smartphone.

The thickness of this frameless body is 8.4 mm. This is a very thick case, we advise you to look in our catalog smartphones with thin cases, which fit comfortably in your hand.

The case Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra has a dust and water protection. Today this feature has already become the standard. Since 2017, more and more smartphones are manufactured with the protection of the enclosure in accordance with IP67, IP68, etc.

Main camera and selfie camera

The smartphone Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra got the main camera with multiple modules (triple camera smartphones): 50 MP Wide + 48 MP Periscope telephoto + 48 MP UltraWide. And there is also a front camera that has one module: 20 MP Wide. If you judge only by the number of megapixels, then the main camera is super-camera, which is installed in smartphones. But the frontcamera very good, which will surprise you with its high quality shooting of selfie. It seems that we have already written many times that before buying you need to see a smartphone and hold it in your hands. And speaking about cameras, I would like to repeat the same idea once again — look at the reviews about this model, see examples of photos taken by this smartphone. It often happens that in search of a low price, you buy a model with a camera of tens of megapixels, but the photos and videos will not be of high quality.

Processor and Internal Memory

After a lot of leaks, we now know all characteristics of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra. The smartphone received 8-core processor on the chipset Snapdragon 888 (5 nm). RAM is built-in 8 GB and there is a version of 12 GB.

But the most interesting is the built-in memory of 256 GB and plus another option for 512 GB. But memory cards, unfortunately, with this smartphone, you can not use, because the manufacturer did not provide for them a slot.

Evaluation of the characteristics, probably, you have already folded, and if not, here is our result. Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra is a very smart smartphone with a huge screen and the coolest main camera for today, and the front camera at it turned out simply smart. And to all this we add that the battery here deserves special attention, because it received a very powerful with increased capacity.

Is it worth buying now this model of the smartphone, we are talking about our status “Droid-or-Junk”. Of course, at the beginning of sales, almost every smartphone becomes a Droid, and we advise buying such models. But over time, the situation is changing, no one updates the Android version in the smartphone, and in six months or a year this smartphone can already become a Junk.
