Please be aware that this is a downgraded version of globally launched Mi 11 and Mi 11 pro.

Reason for low rating -

1. Ordinary display. This is not the 2K display as featured on global versions of Mi 11 series

2. No gorilla glass victus unlike global version.

3. Band tests shows poor build quality which may result in breakage of phone due to bending

4. Such a cheap tactic of selling a phone with the promise of fast charging and not providing charger with a adequate charging capacity.

5. No curved display unlike global version.

6. Took almost 20 days to get my hands on the phone post order.

7. Reported heating issues in SD 888 while playing intensive games

In short, xiaomi has attempted to sell big story by first launching Mi 11 globally and then putting "X" and selling subpar product in India through illusion.

I guess, Xiaomi should not have cut the corners and compromise the quality in Indian versions. Indians are willing to pay premium and success of oneplus is the testament to that. Any cunning move to undercut the value proposition will hurt xiaomi in long run.

(note that I currently use redmi note 20 pro and have used so many phones of xiaomi ever since it launched first ever phone in India and hence hold a adequate credentials to voice my criticism as a fan)

I love gaming and have been waiting for a SDM 888 under 40k which does not compromise on any aspect, and now i finally have it in my hands and its a Gaming Beast.

The 360 Hz touch sampling rate makes up for buttery smooth game control. For all mobile gamers, pls have a look at the touch sampling rate as that determines more your response times, even more than screen refresh rate (not that Mi 11X pro lacks there with its vibrant 120 Hz OLED Panel).

Camera Again, since I love making travel videos, and have been using an iPhone 11 for the past one year, this has been a welcome change, with its saturated and punchy images and videos that are a treat to the eye. For vlogs in outdoor scenarios, audio used to become an issue, however audio zoom feature really helps reduce background noise and focus on the subject. No need to carry a separate mic!

I have always liked soft bright colors on my gadgets and so chose the celestial silver one. Considering the hardware it packs the phone is surprisingly light and slim.

As for the user interface which is MIUI, this phone has the cleanest version of MIUI yet. However being a nerd, I never shy away from the plethora of custom ROMs that popular Xiaomi devices get over at XDA, and this I am sure is going to be a blockbuster one, just like the K20 Pro from the past!! SO that's something up to try in the future!!

Definitely not the top tier phone yet impressed.

Love the design. Snapdragon 888 has loads of raw processing power. Wifi 6 support is what I loved. 108mp camera shots are way below average.

Cons:

-Hate the slow data transfer usb 2.0 port

-Slow 55 minute charging.(33w Sonic charger)

-Miui Bloatware (getapps, Xiaomi ads, Tencent trackers) are a hassle can be removed using debloater tool from PC.

-NightMode is horrible.

-Overheating issue, hopefully should be fixed with MIUI 12.5 update in coming months.

-if camera is your priority, choose a better device.

Post MIUI 12.5.1 : pretty useless update, buggy as usual. Bloatware still exists. Not at all impressed. Not at all recommended to anyone.

6 months later update (October 2021)

This is clearly the worst device I have used. Presently given this phone to my watchman for his daily use. I got my OnePlus 7 pro broken screen repaired & instantly got that fluidic wow feel. Oxygen OS is lightyears ahead of MIUI.

This phone is clearly made for MIUI users who doesn't have any clear knowledge about other UIs wanting to upgrade there phone.
