Redmi Note 11
Xiaomi launched its Redmi Note 11 and Redmi Note 11S in India yesterday, which comes equipped with multiple features and specifications. Redmi Note 11 was launched at an introductory price tag of Rs 13,499 for 4GB RAM + 64GB storage variant (which is likely to change and update in the coming time) and Rs 15,999 for 6 GB + 128GB storage variant.
We got a chance to get our hands-on Redmi Note 11 (6 GB + 128GB storage), and here we bring to you the first look of the smartphone, for your understanding and judgement over the looks and feel of the smartphone.
IN THE BOX
The handset comes in a compact box with product images- both front and back. In the box, the handset is accompanied by a product manual, transparent silicon back covers, a pin to eject sim, a C-Type charging wire along and a 33 watts charging adaptor.
TOUCH AND FEEL
The front panel looks like any other smartphone’s screen- black and tall. But when you flip the handset, it is just glittery, sparkly and beautiful. The phone is sturdy and classy at the same time, and indeed now I understood the idea of having a transparent back cover- which will not hide the back panel of the Note 11.
Talking about the rim, the phone comes with volume rockers and a power button, placed on the right side of the panel, and on the left- it has a sim tray. On the top panel, we have a speaker grid along with a jack to connect with headset, speaker, aux cable, mic etc.
On the bottom, again we have a speaker grid, a charging slot in the middle and a mic hole.
Coming on the back panel, I simply cannot resist stating that it looks very pretty indeed. The dual shade which moved, shimmer and glitter on the entire panel and the Redmi logo stated and the left bottom of the device. The handset features a camera panel on the left corner of the Note 11, featuring 4 cameras and one flashlight.
Although we got our hands-on Horizon Blue, Redmi also launched Space Black and Starburst White colour variants for having more options that look attractive enough to grab the attraction of people around you.
The silicon cover just fits perfectly on the device and over the volume and power button too. We don't need any fancy back cover, because the device features an amazing back panel and it looks out of the crowd. Also, just to state, we reviewed Oppo Reno7 which also comes with a unique back panel with starlight design and also comes accompanied by silicon back cover.
