Today Xiaomi is saying three new units – the 11T, the 11T Pro and the 11 Lite 5G NE. We’ve had the primary two in for evaluation for a bit now and are in a position to give some first-hand experiences with the telephones immediately.
The Xiaomi 11T sequence – which by the best way isn’t referred to as anymore “Mi” within the identify, it’s actually simply “Xiaomi 11T” now, are purported to be additions to the corporate’s flagship line-up, however coming in at cheaper price factors. We had reviewed the Mi 11 again in March and the massive brother, the Mi 11 Ultra in July, so be certain to learn these items because the 11T sequence suits into the line-up, albeit being totally different.
What defines the 11T sequence is the truth that they’re barely decrease priced and extra price range than the unique Mi 11, notably on the show facet which has now been diminished to a 1080p panel. Build high quality can also be totally different, and at last, we’re seeing a distinct set of SoC choices relying on whether or not you get the common 11T or the higher-end 11T Pro.

Starting off with the SoCs, the 2 11T units are completely attention-grabbing telephones as in addition to the standard Samsung Galaxy units annually who’re powered by Snapdragon and Exynos SoCs, Xiaomi is using an analogous technique right here with the 11T sequence in dual-sourcing each from Qualcomm and from MediaTek.
The common 11T is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 “Ultra” – we’re unsure what the Ultra right here stands for however it appears it’s associated to a excessive clocked NPU – there aren’t any variations on the CPU clocks. The SoC includes a Cortex-A78 at as much as 3.00GHz, three A78’s at 2.60GHz, and 4 A55’s at 2.00GHz. The GPU is a MaliG77MP9, though we are able to’t verify the frequency. This is MediaTek’s highest finish chip at this second in time, so it’s fairly attention-grabbing. What additionally makes it particular is that it’s on TSMC’s 6nm course of node, and it’s the primary chip we’ve had in our palms on this node.
The Snapdragon 888 wants no introduction, and that’s what’s powering the 11T Pro. There are a number of oddities with the chip although, which we’ll cowl within the system efficiency part, however the best way Xiaomi is configuring the chip isn’t fairly flagship degree when it comes to behaviour.
What’s very thrilling concerning the two units with differing SoCs is that each telephones are in any other case completely similar in specs. It’s basically the identical telephone, simply with a distinct SoC, and totally different charging capabilities. For apples-to-apples chipset…
