Everybody loves a good deal. As a user, we look to get the best value for our money. The original ‘flagship killer’ didn’t just call itself that. OnePlus earned that moniker by offering flagship-level specifications at a very reasonable price. With the brand new OnePlus 11R 5G, the company looks all set to continue that trend.
The OnePlus 11R 5G is quite interesting as the smartphone has a lot to offer for its relatively affordable asking price. Let us take a quick look at how the new device aims to push the boundaries of what a smartphone can offer to those with a tight budget.
Inspired design
The design of a smartphone is very important when it comes to value. When you pay a premium for something, it needs to show. Thankfully, the OnePlus 11R 5G lives up to this. It features a sleek, laser-cut silhouette complete with a glossy finish. OnePlus notes that when designing the OnePlus 11R 5G, it took inspiration from high-performance sports cars and spacecraft. And as we can see, the results are pretty evident in both variants, namely the Galactic Silver and Sonic Black.
The Galactic Silver variant is said to have been inspired by the beauty and majesty of interstellar light. It features a silver hue with very subtle hints of ice blue. The Sonic Black variant is more straightforward and to the point. With a name that takes inspiration from the speed of sound and a matte finish, it oozes understated elegance. Both variants feature a laser-sculpted curvature for sleek and classy looks!
Immersive display
If you are on the hunt for a big-screen experience, then the OnePlus 11R 5G should be right up your valley. It packs a massive 6.7-inch display with a 2772x1240p resolution. This should excite video watchers and gamers as the large screen will ensure a greater immersive experience. The display also supports HDR10+ and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 colour gamut. This means that you will get to enjoy more natural-looking colours on the screen. This is a big boost to those who love watching movies on their phone.
Speaking of gamers, the 120Hz Super Fluid Display should offer super smooth motions needed to give you the edge when playing fast-paced multiplayer games. It also ensures pleasingly smooth scrolling and transition animations. On top of all this, you get a peak brightness of 1450nits. This should ensure excellent legibility, even under bright light. Further, you also get SGC Low Blue Light Ex certification, which means that your eyes are protected from long hours looking into the display.
Power to the max
At the heart of the OnePlus 11R 5G is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, a flagship-grade SoC that offers a peak clock speed of 3.0GHz. This is then paired with a Qualcomm Adreno 730 GPU. This means that the phone can smoothly play pretty much all the games currently available on the Android platform. So it does not matter if you are a hardcore online gamer or someone who just wants to pass the time with casual games. The OnePlus 11R 5G should be able to handle it all.
Aiding performance is the fact that the phone comes with up to 16GB LPDDR5X RAM. This ensures everything runs smoothly, even with multiple apps running in the background. This is further helped by the advanced RAM management system. This server-level memory management system allows the phone to prioritise apps based on needs and requirements. With this in place, the OnePlus 11R 5G can have as many as 44 apps active in the background.
A terrific trio of cameras
Of course, we cannot talk about smartphones and not bring up the camera. The OnePlus 11R 5G packs a triple-rear camera setup that offers users immense flexibility when taking photos. This includes a massive 50MP primary camera with Optical Image Stabilisation. OIS is very important as it reduces the chances of blurry photos caused by movement. It also helps when taking low-light images by dampening any micro-movements caused by the hand. This lets the shutter stay open for longer, which lets you take brighter and crisper images in low-light conditions. Aside from this, you also get an 8MP ultra-wide camera with a 120-degree field of view and a 2MP macro camera. These two very situation-specific camera options ensure excellent flexibility.
But it’s not all that. The Image Clarity Engine 2.0 lets you quickly take photos with impressive clarity. It does this by using smart algorithms to quickly process images and present the best result to the user. So you can always capture those fleeting moments as they pass by in amazing clarity.
Supercharged battery
The OnePlus 11R 5G packs a massive 5000mAh battery. This ensures that the phone can easily last for a day with average use. This is very important as even the most cutting-edge smartphones will be pointless if it does not offer the battery life needed to last at least an entire day without charging.
But that’s not the entire story. After all, who wants to wait hours waiting for the enormous battery to charge? This is why the smartphone comes with the 100W SUPERVOOC fast charging technology. With this tech in place, the smartphone will take just 5 minutes and 17 seconds to get its battery to 30%. By the time the 10-minute mark rolls around, the battery will be 52% charged. In fact, to charge the phone to 100%, you will need to plug it in for just 25 minutes. It should also be noted that the device uses GaN tech to achieve better charging efficiency while ensuring improved heat control.
Thank you for joining us as we took a look at the brand-new OnePlus 11R 5G. It should be pretty evident that the phone is packed to the brim with flagship-grade features and specifications. But the overall cost of the phone is quite low with prices starting at Rs 39,999. Who wouldn’t like to buy that?
