I don't play games at all, so there's that. And mostly I'm pretty close to multiple USB C charging cables. I've been working remotely since long before COVID-19. Rare that I'd be out and about for more than half a day.
And, frankly, battery can't be any worse than my Pixel LOL.
More interested in charging speed than battery capacity.

I recommend that you consider how battery-heavy you are with your phone to see if this phone is for you. I recently got a mi 11, and the battery life is worse than this review suggests. On the plus side, the battery charges pretty quick but that can lead to faster battery deterioration.

Thanks for this outstanding long term review. Very insightful. You may have just about persuaded me to drop £650+ (current discounted price) direct from Xiaomi UK. Much food for thought. Certainly none of the minus points you so carefully highlight are deal breakers for me, whilst the positives are all top of my list, most notably screen quality, fluidity and general performance.
Thanks again for a great in depth review!

That's it, Mix 4 is rumored to be pricier than Ultra so I'm going for Mi 11! Hunting down good price from today

I can play more than an hour of codm BR without taking a performance hit due to temps. Genshin will toast any phone that doesn't have active cooling, so I wouldn't really fault the snap 888 for that. The biggest issue I have is the extreme battery usage under load, which is the shortcoming of the snap 888 and is especially bad with the mi 11.

I kinda regret my decision to upgrade, as the mi 10T pro's battery lasts significantly longer, and good curved tempered glass is hard to come by. The mi 10T pro is also more stable in gaming, if that's something that matters to you. The only thing the mi 11 does better is the fast charging (76 percent in 30 minutes) and the pretty 1440p panel.

Xiaomi does have the whole weekly beta thing if you really are into needing constant software updates, which is even better after the Xiaomi.eu team gets through with it.

idk about anyone but my Redmi note 9 Pro with 6gb Ram and SD 720G chipset works really smooth and well, no problems and the battery last a whole day even if am playing COD for a 2 hours straight while data is on and background apps running. So this Mi 11 cant be that bad. Well i need android 11 update tho

How do you think Xiaomi became 3rd largest global brand in 2020? Regarding you saying Oppo, Vivo and Oneplus got railed, you left out the fact that phones from those 3 brands are more expensive than equivalent models from Xiaomi so the expectations are of course higher too.

Plenty of retailers will push certain mid rangers with newest Android version over phones which are flagship n every way but might not receive the latest version of Android or the latest security patch due to being older.
Normally I as a retailer don't engage in such practices but I know several others who do.
