Redmi has launched phones under its “T” series in the past but not in China. For example, Redmi Note 11T 5G was a rebadged Redmi Note 11 5G (China) for India. Similarly, the Redmi Note 10T was a rebadged Redmi Note 10 5G (China) for India. But today, Redmi launched two new Note 11T series phones in the Chinese market. These are named Redmi Note 11T Pro & Redmi Note 11T Pro+. Both these are mid-range devices with almost the same specs & the only difference is in the battery size & charging speed.
They both look identical, so the sides are flat & there is a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. On the back, the camera module has a triple camera setup. There is a flat panel on the front with a hole punch cutout. The 3.5mm headphone jack is present on the top along with the IR Blaster & both phones have stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos. For better haptic feedback, there is an X-axis linear motor.
The chip powering both these phones is the MediaTek Dimensity 8100. This is one of the most powerful mid-range SOCs for android phones in the market. Both the phones have LPDDR5 RAM and UFS 3.1 storage too. For better cooling, there is a VC Liquid cooling system.
On the front, both phones have a 6.6-inch 144Hz LCD with 650 nits brightness. The panel supports Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and has DisplayMate A+ certification. The refresh rate of the panel can go as low as 30Hz when required to save battery.
In terms of cameras, there are three on the rear. The primary camera has a 64MP Samsung GW1 sensor, the ultrawide camera has an 8MP sensor & the macro camera has a 2MP sensor. There is support for 4K video recording, but it is limited to 30fps. For selfies, there is a 16MP camera.
Finally, let us talk about the differences between the two phones. Redmi Note 11T Pro has a 5,080mAh battery and supports 67W fast charging, whereas the Redmi Note 11T Pro+ has a 4,400mAH battery with 120W fast charging. The Pro+ version also has the Surge P1 charging chip. Both phones come equipped with 67W & 120W fast chargers, respectively.
One more difference between the two phones is that the Pro+ variant offers up to 512GB of storage.
There are three color options to choose from. The Redmi Note 11T Pro+ also comes in an Astro Boy Edition variant that has the character art on the back panel. Here is the pricing for both the phones –
