Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Full Review: Ultimate of Android? By gizmochina

If you watched the big Xiaomi launch last week. You'll know that the company is calling the m11 ultra the ultimate of android. That's a pretty big title. So far, no one has dared to exalt themselves like that, including Samsung. So how good is the mi 11 ultra? That Xiaomi has called it the ultimate of android? Let's take a look at the mi 11 ultra and see if it can live up to its title as the most powerful android phone to be the most powerful, android phone looks and design are important, so does the mi 11 ultra have a good-looking design from my perspective? Yes, it looks good. Its camera module is unlike anyone else's.

The large module takes up almost a third of the entire phone on the left. Half of the module are the super size, 3 lenses and on the right is a small display. Although the module sticks out very much, the phone doesn't wobble because it's big and centered the top heaviness is definitely there, but it's actually not as big of an issue as one might expect, because the backplate is ceramic. It is only available in black white and textured marble white. All three colors are very subdued and elegant, but you also have to bear the weight of 234 grams as a result, although it is heavy, it is not thick.8.3 millimeters thick is even thinner than the vegan leather version of the 11. So it doesn't look bulky.

The glass trim strip on the top, the chambered camera module and the placement of the bottom speaker to the right also show that Xiaomi is starting to pay attention to the details of the design. If there are two words to describe its appearance, they are refined and dominant premium phone with an unforgettable and distinctive look is a design success. I think the mi11 ultra does that the screen is the first gate to human machine. Interaction is the screen of the mi 11 perfect enough. The screen of the m11 ultra is actually the same as the mi 11s.

There is a 2k 120, hertz refresh rate as well as corning's latest Vitus glass. The quad curve screen also enhances the experience of full screen gesture. You can pause for a closer look at the other parameters. There are some subtle differences that come from the software. For example, the peak brightness has increased by 300 nit and Dolby Vision is supported.

If there is a downside, it would be the lack of LPO and true tone display support, but other than that you won't find any other drawbacks, and it's still one of the best screens of the year. If you're going to be at the top of the android phone list, the performance has to be very powerful. So how is the performance of the mi 11 ultra honestly, not that great on a t2? It scores around 770 000, which is lower than the 800 000 points of its me11 sibling, but 3d, Mark's, 5545, geek bench, 5, single core test of 1105 and multi-score of 3497 brings it to par with other flagships. Xiaomi claims that the m11 uses a new phase change thermal conductivity material. The thermal conductivity has improved by 100, but the gaming experience is not improved from a practical point of view.

Games like PUBG are certainly not a problem for flagships averaging at 89, fps ken shin impact. Also has an average of 54 fps, because Xiaomi has targeted optimizations. The temperature didn't surpass 50 degrees Celsius either, but when it came to games that are heavy on performance and are not optimized for the device like bright ridge, the gaming experience was very bad. The average frame rate is not bad at all, but even though Xiaomi says it has used new cooling materials, the temperature still breaks 50 degrees Celsius because the metal frame of the m11 conducts heat better. The frame feels very hot when playing games, and it prompts an overheating warning after exiting the game.

This results in your phone limiting the screen, refresh rate camera, etc. So we would recommend getting a cooling back clip if you want to play these kinds of games. Here comes the most important question with such a large camera module. The mi 11 must be good at taking photos right. The main camera of the mi 11 ultra is a g2n sensor from Samsung, with a humongous sensor, size of one and a half 12 inches.

It's the largest CMO size of any recently released phone, both the ultra-wide lens and the telephoto lens are Sony's mix 586, a sensor that was used in the main camera in most phones the year before. But now the m11 is using this popular sensor for its wide-angle lens and periscope telephoto lens, which is a very extravagant act. The mi, 11 ultras color tones are biased towards reproducing realistic scenes without being too vibrant. Color accuracy is also much improved over the previous generation. It performs consistently in most scenes.

The both from the larger CIO size is also more pronounced. The background light spot is larger. The more evenly spotted light also indicates an improvement in the quality of the lenses. Performance in dark conditions is excellent. With good detail retention, however, the sharpening is a little heavy.

It doesn't look very natural, Xiaomi developed a new night mode algorithm. It is automatically activated in auto mode. According to the light intensity. In the current version, this algorithm doesn't seem to be very different from the normal night mode other than that it is difficult for me to pick out any other faults at first. I thought the mi 11 wide angle lenses would be the biggest improvement over its predecessor, the mites ultra, but that wasn't the case.

The ultra-wide lens improvement is barely noticeable in most daytime scenes. Only at night in auto mode, you can see more noise in the dark areas, but the difference is reduced again when you turn on night mode. So although the mix 586 is also used for the ultra-wide angle, the improvement is not as much pronounced as you might expect. The lens also has an integrated macro mode, but the closest focusing distance is the same in macro mode and normal mode. So you can ignore this mode.

It's also a step backwards compared to its predecessor, the mi 11 ultra is still using a 12 millimeter lens, with more distortion around the photo, which needs to be noted five times. Telephoto lens has not changed in terms of hardware, but there are software improvements. This lens can now be used in night mode, but it doesn't really matter because of the dynamic range of the telephoto lens is much better on the mi 11 ultra as compared to the mi 10 ultra, even without the night mode on. I think, since it's a flagship phone, the periscope telephoto lens is still important because it can help you take very good photos in cluttered environments. You should also notice zooming between the main camera and the five times.

Telephoto is only possible through the frame rate crop of the main camera. When you use one times to five times, zoom the m11 turns off the main camera pixels four in one mode, the 50mp crop frame is automatically invoked to zoom in because the individual pixels of the main camera are large enough. You don't have to worry about excessive loss of image quality. You don't have to worry about the mi 11 ultras performance in video shooting either it performs very well all three lenses support, 8k and 4k 60fps, and you can switch lenses in 4k 30fps. Recording too, notably.

The mites ultra can only do that in 1080p, 30fps video, the m11 ultra, is really impeccable when it plays well, but there is a problem with Xiaomi's new phones. It's that the firmware can be very problematic at first. The most common problem is the very high shutter leg and the particularly slow HDR compositing, there's also the old Xiaomi problem of wavering white balance, but it is much better than the previous Xiaomi phones in this video. The telephoto strategy is also a bit strange. The meteor ultra zoomed in to five times and the same scene calls for a periscope five times.

Telephoto shoot, while the mi 11 ultra zoomed into five times is a cropped version from the main camera sensor. So you need to be careful when you shoot, even if you were fine with the previous bugs, this one will be hard to ignore, sometimes at the end of a photo shoot you'll find that the photo you've taken has been zoomed in multiple times for no apparent reason making it completely unusable. The problem has occurred twice in the last few days of taking photos. Hopefully, Xiaomi will fix this issue in the next version. Soon, as with the mi 11 and mi 10s, the charger and charging cable are not included in the box.

They are packaged separately. This time the battery of the m11 ultra uses a new negative material. It allows the battery to increase its power storage capacity. That's why you can see that there is actually a 5 000 milliampere hour battery crammed into an 8.38 millimeter body. The charging power isn't as aggressive as the 120 watts of last year's me 10 ultra, but 67 watt of wire charging plus 67 watt of wireless charging is top-notch, especially wireless charging in testing wire charging, the phone to 22 in five minutes, 90 and 30 minutes, and it takes only 36 minutes to fully charge to 100 wireless charging up the phone to 14 in five minutes, 78 percent in half an hour, and it took 43 minutes to fill up to 100 percent for supporting such a powerful wireless charging.

Phone Xiaomi has also launched an 80 watt wireless charging. Dock styling is very cool. It can charge horizontally and vertically and is able to control whether the cooling fan is on or not. As for why the charging dock is 80 watt instead of 67 watt, I guess Xiaomi's new mobile phones launched in the near future, will continue to break the record of the fastest wireless charging technology in mass-produced phones because of its huge battery is battery. Life should be great right.

Half an hour of ticktock and 1080p video playback uses five percent 20 minutes of pub g uses, 12 percent ginger impact for 30 minutes uses 17 and bright ridge for 20 minutes drains 15 of the battery. It seems to be pretty well optimized for light use and about the same as any other phone for heavy use. V11 ultra brings the best hardware of 2021, but does it have any other highlights? Remember that little screen on the back of the phone it allows you to check the time, but also messages charging animations and more, but the best thing about it is that it can be used for selfies and the rear lens doesn't have beauty effect, keeping your selfies realistic. Unfortunately, the screen doesn't support. Video recording yet- but I guess Xiaomi will update this feature soon.

There's no shortage of infrared transmitters in NFC, but the USB is still 2.0. I have to criticize Xiaomi on this point. However, the phone does support ip68 water resistance, making it the first Xiaomi phone to have ip68 water resistance in 11 years. Another highlight is Harman Kardon's stereo, dual speakers. Sound quality is a step-up from the mi 11.

Let's hear the actual sound quality haven't seen this video. Have you come up with an answer to whether the mi 11 ultra is the ultimate of android? It does have the potential to be the most powerful android phone, because its hardware is really very good, but it's not ready yet because it's not the best in terms of software wait a few months for Xiaomi to make up for its software shortcomings. Maybe it will really become the ultimate of android, but by then the competition will be even stronger. Let's wait and see who will release the best android phone of this year, I'm Kieran from gizmo china, thanks for watching, and we'll see you next time.
