Xiaomi 11 Lite NE 5G review: One fine experience

Published

Xiaomi 11 Lite NE has not changed the core design provided by its 4G counterparts. Therefore, apart from the Diamond Dazzle color and the 5G small logo, there is no difference between the two phones.

The weight of 158 grams brings it closer to the weight category of the iPhone 13, making it one of the lightest smartphones you can buy today. Lightness does not affect build quality. The rear is glass instead of plastic, and the matte paint helps to hide stains. The back of the Diamond Dazzle variant is shiny and looks beautiful, but the pink variant compliments the design better.

The cute round camera hump and the almost borderless display give Xiaomi 11 Lite NE a unique identity among its boring-looking competitors. Despite the slim body, you can get stereo speaker setup and USB-C port. There is no headphone jack, but Xiaomi has a dongle bundled in the box. A flexible plastic case and charger are also part of the box. The rights that Xiaomi brags about here come from its support for Netflix’s Dolby Vision format.

Unfortunately, due to no subscription, I can’t witness this, but overall the display quality is the best in its class. You will get a typical high-contrast AMOLED appearance and eye-popping colors, on the 6.5-inch display, it brings a pleasant viewing experience. The slim bezel and tiny camera cutout also contribute to the sense of immersion. Similar to the 4G version, the refresh rate of Mi 11 Lite NE 5G is limited to 90Hz.

It looks pretty smooth, but competitors offer a faster 120Hz display, which is perceptible. Despite the Gorilla Glass 5 protection, a plastic screen protector is pre-installed; considering that rival brands are reducing boxed items, this is a good choice. With the helm of the Snapdragon 778G chip, Xiaomi 11 Lite NE is definitely a fast mobile phone.

Despite the thick skin of MIUI 12.5, this phone has never been out of breath even in the most demanding circumstances. Whether I browse Instagram for a few hours or browse emails while playing music in the background, my phone can handle it all happily. Compared with the old version, the performance improvement of MIUI 12.5 is obvious; smooth animations, eager application loading, and keeping applications well in memory-the optimization is impressive.
