If you\u2019re considering buying a new flagship phone, but don\u2019t want to go with the Apple and Samsung duopoly, should you consider the Mi 11 Ultra? It\u2019s a step in the right direction for Xiaomi, though it\u2019s clear there\u2019s more work to do, as the flagship is still plagued by the same \u201cdiseases\u201d that have plagued Xiaomi flagships for what seems like forever. The Mi 11 Ultra has a great display, great performance, a versatile camera, but the image quality isn&#8217;t that impressive,<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.batteriesfast.co.uk\/smartphone-battery\/Xiaomi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Xiaomi&nbsp;Mi 11 Ultra battery&nbsp;<\/a><\/strong>life is middling, and the design is clunky. It&#8217;s an impressive piece of hardware and a viable alternative to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, but not necessarily a better device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The front is a huge 6.8-inch quad-curved display. As a result, using gesture navigation feels particularly smooth: swiping from the sides, top, or bottom of the phone won&#8217;t be interrupted by sharp edges or anything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mi 11 Ultra has a large 6.81-inch display that&#8217;s a joy to look at and use. It&#8217;s an OLED panel that uses some software tricks to achieve 10-bit color depth, but what&#8217;s more impressive is its excellent display. Viewing angles, color reproduction, and especially maximum brightness are all praiseworthy, although it&#8217;s worth noting that the color temperature of the default screen mode is close to 7500K, which is a bit cold. That said, Xiaomi claims the Mi 11 Ultra can hit a maximum brightness of 1,700 nits in a dedicated \u201cSunlight Mode,\u201d but we managed to hit over 800 nits in everyday scenarios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The display supports a smooth 120Hz refresh rate as well as a traditional 60Hz mode, but more impressively, the Mi 11 Ultra supports high refresh rates at up to QHD+ resolution, similar to the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Running QHD+ at 120Hz is an absolute visual feast, though it does take a toll on the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.batteriesfast.co.uk\/smartphone-battery\/Xiaomi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><u>Xiaomi&nbsp;Mi 11 Ultra battery<\/u><\/strong><\/a>life. In terms of overall performance, this phone is as fast as any other flagship available today. Everything on the Mi 11 Ultra runs incredibly fast, and I find it hard to believe anyone would experience lag or slowness in apps, games, or the interface itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find the best Xiaomi Smartphone Battery price!
