Redmi Note 11 is the cheapest variant of the three Redmi Note 11 series released Xiaomi in Indonesia. What’s the performance like?
With Redmi Note 11, Xiaomi released Redmi Note 11 Pro and Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G. Well, this Redmi Note 11 is the cheapest variant, priced at IDR 2.5 million (4GB/128GB) and IDR 2.8 million (6GB/128GB).
Design
Redmi Note 11 comes with a (almost) new design. The camera module is still similar to the Redmi Note 10 series, but now comes with a slightly flat back body and only curved at the edges.

Meanwhile, the sides are also almost flat, with a slight bend at the edges. The body is made of plastic with a matte finish, which stays clean even when held with greasy fingers — at least in the blue variant we tested.
Even though the material is plastic, the Redmi Note 11 doesn’t look cheap. The body also feels solid, quite thin and light (179 grams) for a phone with a 5,000 mAh battery.

Problem buttons, relatively the same as the previous series. On the right there is the power button which is integrated with the fingerprint sensor and volume buttons. The fingerprint sensor is quite fast in recognizing fingerprints.
On the left are the SIM and microSD card slots, there are two nano SIM slots and a separate microSD slot. So you don’t have to choose to use two SIMs or one SIM with a microSD.

While at the top there is a 3.5mm audio port, speakers, microphone, and IR blaster. Then below there are holes for speakers, microphones, and a USB-C port. This speaker produces a fairly loud volume for a cellphone in its class.
Screen
Redmi Note 11 uses a 6.43-inch AMOLED FHD + screen that has a refresh rate of 90Hz, up from the Redmi Note 10 which is only 60Hz. Even though it’s not 120Hz, the 90Hz refresh rate is quite different from 60Hz. That is smoother animation, but not as much power consumption as a 120Hz screen.
Like other AMOLED screens, the Redmi Note 11 screen can display a very dark black color. As a default (and recommended) setting, the color profile is Vivid. But for me, the colors displayed are too bright in this setting, and make me more comfortable in Standard mode.

Unfortunately, there is no HDR support on this screen. In fact, according to specifications, the screen is quite capable with an average brightness level of 700 nits, and a maximum of 1000 nits.
But luckily the Redmi Note 11 has Widevine L1 DRM certification, which allows it to play videos at full resolution from services like Netflix.
Battery, performance, and conclusions are on the next page.
