Third-party reviews

Based on ratings from across the web.
Reviews last updated: August 2026 · How we calculate this

What we like about Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 (6GB + 128GB)

  • Excellent 6.43-inch AMOLED display with 90Hz refresh rate, known for crisp colors, deep blacks, and good brightness for outdoor viewing.
  • Great battery life from the 5,000 mAh capacity, easily lasting over a day with moderate to heavy usage.
  • Fast 33W wired charging support (with an in-box charger in most regions) that can charge the phone to full in about an hour.
  • Loud and clear stereo speakers and the retention of a 3.5mm headphone jack are highly appreciated features.
  • Stylish and lightweight design with a durable, matte plastic finish and an IP53 rating for splash protection.
  • The main 50MP camera performs solidly in good daylight conditions, capturing detailed and color-accurate photos.
  • Includes useful extras like a microSD card slot for expandable storage, an IR blaster, and NFC (market dependent).
  • Good value for money, offering a strong feature set (AMOLED, 90Hz, big battery) for a budget-friendly price point.

What we don't like about Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 (6GB + 128GB)

  • Underwhelming performance from the Snapdragon 680 processor, which can feel sluggish with heavy multitasking or demanding games and is a slight downgrade from its predecessor in benchmarks.
  • The camera system struggles in low-light conditions, producing noisy and less detailed images, and the 2MP macro and 8MP ultrawide lenses are considered mediocre or 'filler'.
  • Videos are capped at 1080p resolution at 30fps, lacking 4K recording capabilities found in some previous models or competitors.
  • MIUI software is often criticized for being full of bloatware, pre-installed ads, and having a busy, sometimes inconsistent, user interface.
  • Ships with older Android 11 software (at launch), putting it behind competitors in terms of the latest operating system features.
  • Lack of 5G connectivity on the global version is a major drawback for users who want next-gen network speeds.
  • The auto-brightness feature can be aggressive, sometimes dimming the screen too much, and the display glass is somewhat reflective in direct sunlight.

Verdict

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 (6GB + 128GB) is a budget-friendly 4G smartphone featuring a vibrant 6.43-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate, powered by a Snapdragon 680 processor for smooth everyday performance. Key pros include its long-lasting 5000mAh battery with 33W fast charging, loud stereo speakers, a versatile 50MP quad-camera system, and a modern flat-edge design with an IP53 dust and splash resistance rating. However, it is limited to 4G connectivity, the camera performance can be underwhelming in low-light conditions, and the MIUI software comes with pre-installed bloatware and in-app ads.
