The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro+ was announced in early March for the Indian market. It is now getting a global launch and will be available from the 6th of April.

However, the global variant has a couple of significant changes compared to the Indian variant.

The global model is launching with 120W Xiaomi HyperCharge which is a significant upgrade from the 67W on the Indian model. However, this has also resulted in Xiaomi using a smaller battery, 4500mAh vs 5000mAh.

The phone is being launched with the MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset, instead of the Snapdragon 695 5G used on the Indian model.

They are both similar chipsets, but benchmarks indicate that the MediaTek Dimensity 920 provides superior performance.

It is worth noting that the Xiaomi Poco X4 Pro is essentially identical to the Indian Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro+. Which is not confusing at all.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro+ vs Realme 9 Pro+

The MediaTek Dimensity 920 is also used on the excellent Realme 9 Pro+ and it looks like these two phones will be going head to head as two of the best options for mid-range phones with the outstanding camera performance.

The Realme uses the superb 50MP Sony IMX766 whereas the Redmi uses the Samsung 108MP sensor. Both phones then have generic 8MP ultrawide and 2MP macro sensors.

The Redmi has a couple of advantages over the Realme. As well as the faster charging, it has a larger 6.67-inch display and a faster 120Hz screen refresh rate.

It then also has a microSD slot (assuming it is not removed for the global model). Oddly, the Indian model lacks WiFi 6 and also uses the older Bluetooth 5.1, but this might change with the chipset.

The Realme 9 Pro Plus is available to buy for £349 with 8GB+256GB the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro+ doesn’t have an official GBP price yet but is stated as being from $369 or $449 for the same memory and storage as the Realme. Which coincidentally works out at about the same price of £345.
