Hi to the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite, which is the 4G counterpart to the Mi 11 Lite 5G. Before we get to the differences and similarities between the couple, here is a practical and important video starring both devices.
The unboxing experience across the Mi 11 Lite models is identical. You get the phone, a 27W charger, USB cable, headphone dongle, free case and a non-pre-installed plastic screen protector.
As for the differences between the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite and the Mi 11 Lite 5G, they come to two things – the 4G model uses a Snapdragon 732G instead of the Snapdragon 780G, and it has a 16MP selfie camera instead of the 5Gs 20MP.
There is also another physical difference – the Mi 11 Lite comes with a glossy back panel, while the 5G gets a more premium-feeling matte finish.
Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G and 4G
The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite is very light, which together with its razor thin 6.8 mm profile gives a phone that is hardly felt in the hand.
We noticed no difference in the overall performance between the Mi 11 Lite and its 5G-enabled counterpart. Both phones feel fluid, which is enhanced by the 90Hz refresh rate on their screens.
We start our review process and the Mi 11 Lite gets a standalone piece, which will take some time. Stick around!
