We will tell you what its features are, the changes in the design, and whether it is worth buying it or considering buying a mid-range Xiaomi. The device is already official in China and could soon arrive in Europe and Latin America.
New design for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro
New Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro penetrates through the eyes thanks to its design. The company capitalized on the appeal of iPhone-style flat bezels. The Redmi Note 11 Pro has a few flat frames, a flat back, and a flat-screen. Its design is curious and makes a big difference from the rest of the mid-range ranges on the market.
The rear camera module also changes and gets bigger than the Redmi Note 10 Pro. It has fewer sensors (3), but is distributed differently to result in a larger module.
The front is the one that changes the least, even if it also has its dose of the redesign. The Redmi Note 11 Pro continues to bet on a centered screen hole. Now this one is smaller and its side and top visors are thinner as well. It’s not a dramatic change, but it all adds up.
