Xiaomi Mi 11 launched in China and it looks very impressive. They didn't launch a Pro or a Max model, its just the vanilla Mi 11. The phone has a stunning 6.81 inch QHD+ variable refresh rate 120hz display, it a 5,000,000:1 contrast ratio, 480hz touch sampling rate, 1500nits of peak brightness and is made of E4 OLED material. The screen itself is gorgeous to look at. 

Mi 11 has the latest Snapdragon 888 with 8 or 12 Gb of LPDDR5 ram and performance is not an issue with this phone. It runs on the latest MiUI 12.5 based on Android 11 out of the box. The phone is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus and metal rails in the sides. It has an under display fingerprint scanner which is capable of heart rate monitoring, the first time in a phone.

The phone has a 4600mah cell which supports 55W fast charging and 50W wireless charging with 10W reverse wireless charging. Even though Xiaomi has removed the charger from the box, they will provide a GaN 65W charger free of cost if you don't have one, unlike Apple who chose to remove the charger and forced everyone to buy them separately.
