Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro’s price at the time of launch was Rs 39,999 for the 8GB+128GB model and Rs 41,999 for the 12GB+256GB version. However, one can get the phone for as low as Rs 29,999 for the base model on Amazon.

Mi 11X Pro: Should you buy it?

The Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro at Rs 28,999 is a pretty good deal for what it brings to the table. Though the specifications may seem a bit outdated for 2022 standards, they are the best one could get at this price point. The Snapdragon 888 is still a good performer and it should handle most day-to-day tasks without any hiccups. The 4520mAh battery is decent for the price but we are used to seeing 5000mAh models in the segment. Then there’s the 120Hz AMOLED E4 display and a large 108MP primary camera.

On the flip side, the phone is yet to get an Android 12 update and it has just 33W fast charging support, which is slow compared to 65W, 80W, and 150W options in the segment. So if these downsides don’t really matter to you, we suggest you go with the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro.

Mi 11X Pro specifications

The Mi 11X Pro sports a 6.67-inch E4 AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, punch-hole cutout for the selfie snapper, and 1300 nits peak brightness. The handset is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G chipset paired with Adreno 660 GPU for gaming. It packs up to 12GB RAM and 256GB storage that should be further expandable via a microSD card. The Xiaomi phone runs on Android 11-based MIUI 12 custom skin on top.

Connectivity features include 5G, 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS, and a USB Type-C port. There is a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for security and a 4,520mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging.

Moving to optics, the Mi 11X Pro has a triple camera setup at the back with a 108MP Samsung HM2 primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wid-angle lens, and a 5MP macro sensor. There is a 20MP snapper on the front for selfies and video chats.
