Xiaomi 11T Pro 128GB Meteorite Gray

Smartphones im Test: Gute Handys gibt es für weniger als 200 Euro

Xiaomi gehört mittlerweile zu den großen Anbietern – und das weiß das Unternehmen auch. Anders ist der hohe Preis des 11T Pro nicht zu erklären, das zwar gut, aber nicht perfekt ist.

Aufgrund der eher kleiner werdenden Innovationen im Smartphone-Segment und den hohen Leistungsreserven sind lange Updates ein wichtiger Schritt, den Xiaomi eingeschlagen hat.

The Xiaomi 11T Pro is a good-value 5G phone with a top-end processor. It displays a decent spread of abilities across gaming, video streaming and the camera hardware. The photos it captures are a little inconsistent, and the design could be mistaken for that of a much cheaper Xiaomi, but there’s enough substance to make up for it.

It’s a wonder how Xiaomi’s able to hit the prices it does. Aside from wireless charging, there’s nothing we missed after a week of enjoying the Xiaomi 11T’s arsenal of features. It has a powerful 108MP camera, which is bolstered by a great telemacro camera and a competent ultra-wide angle option, delivers flagship power, a sensational screen, and the fastest charging available on a mainstream device right now.

The Xiaomi 11T Pro isn't an upgrade to the Mi 11, more a sideways step at best, and although it has all the performance you need, it struggles to justify its Pro name everywhere else.

Xiaomi aimed high with the 11T Pro, but didn't quite reach its target. The phone has plenty going for it, such as a gorgeous display, top performance, and blazing fast charging, but the cameras are middling and there are several missing features that hurt its overall appeal. An admirable attempt at balancing price and quality, the 11T Pro tips slightly in the wrong direction when stacked against tough competition.

The Xiaomi 11T Pro comes at a very competitive price, with a camera array, chipset and charging speed that are impressive for a mid-range phone, and it would be easy to recommend if it wasn’t for a few minor issues. The device gets hot easily, is quite big, picks up fingerprints readily on the rear, has a few too many software bugs. It’s still a worthy addition to the Mi 11 lineup, though the standard 11T is more.
