I got the F3 around 4 months ago.. then i got the 11 lite 5G NE for my wife.. both are awesome we both love them and we both chose White color

[walalant]

Damnn, it's already December and still, Poco F3 still remains the king on these comparison videos!

[LoofiX]

I'm user of both Mi 11x(Poco F3) and Lite ne 5g,
I'm using F3 just for gaming, and as daily driver lite ne 5g, especially main camera in F3 is underrated and seems like a cheap device, were Lite Ne shines here.I replaced my F3 once due to Tint issues and black crush and got new, but still tint issues exists in certain scenarios.
4250mah in lite ne 5g is not a deal breaker, were I'm getting 8hrs SOT(well optimised miui and 778G), were getting 7hrs 35mins in F3(ofcourse its more fluid with its 120hz).But overall display quality is better in Lite Ne 5g.
Next thing i noticed is its build quality.Both phones are looking premium, but inhand feels better in Lite ne 5g, and i felt a cheap quality in Poco f3 volume rockers.
If you are a power user or not caring bout futuristic 5g, go for F3
If you need an all rounder descent, slim, sleek, premium phone with better camera(samsungGW3 sensor), Lite ne 5g is the best.

i think 90hz is perfect when you choose between battery usage and faster resfreshrate

I ordered the F3 a few days before the Mi 11 lite 5g NE released and honestly, it depends on how you use your phone.

In my case I take alot of pictures and do casual gaming on the side so a decent camera and SD card support would've been my go-to. But I'm still happy with the F3.

They're both good phones at almost the same price range, I don't think you're missing out too much by choosing either one.

[mccoolitz]

I chose Xiaomi 11 lite 5G NE over poco F3 because it's much lighter, thinner and have sd card slot. By the way when you did the speaker test remember poco F3 speakers are from both on top and Xiaomi 11 lite 5G NE are from bottom and from top and your dB meter's mic is positioned on top while measuring.

[ezrapardede]

I'm a gamer, but no doubt to picking the 11 lite 5G, bcs it's more than poweful enough to play Pubg at smooth extreme, yet it doesn't miss on the camera capabilities, better video, more consistent, better colour, especially better shadows actually at photography, best compromises imo

[daqdebob]

With the latest update ive got 12.5.7 on 11 Lite 5G i get around 7:30hours SOT with around 20-15% battery life, which is excellent considered 12.5.2 gave no more than 5:30-6h SOT. Great job Xiaomi. Both phones are great, no matter which one you choose.

[laraz-F]

I'm looking at both of these phones so great video helped me out cheers, sound to me on my phone the f3 had more mid range then the NE and from your pics the f3 looked better not blown out in the highlights need to see more videos before I make a chocie. what I'm looking for is a camera, screen quilty, wifi 6 the main things then sound, size not a problem as I have very big hands like JCB buckets lol, gaming I don't play games at all so don't matter to me. Nice video by the way Adam 😁

[LogenthiranManogaran]

Hi adam.great comparison. Coincidentally, i am comparing both models for my next purchase as my current LG G7 doesn't support volte. Thanks for the comparison!

[Maziahistic]

Watching this again after ordering mi 11 lie 5g NE on shopee😍❤ Thankyouuu for this review

[coqui]

I chose the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE becuase I like the system launcher vs the POCO launcher.

[mllys]

13:19 miui 12.5.6? when did you get the update? mine is still 12.5.4 global version

[kivenramz]

Just got my Poco F3 two days ago! I actually wanted the Mi 11 Lite 5G NE for its smaller form factor, but I couldn't pass up on all the other advantages of the Poco F3 and man this phone is beautiful ✨ although I'm not yet used to having a really tall display haha. Thank you man for your video, definitely helped me decide!

[BlueWhiteWiper]

It feels really nice knowing the phone I bought 5 months ago still beats every phone in its price segment. Great video Adam Lobo Tv. I've been watching your channel since past couple of months and I must say you are one of the best tech reviewers out there, Cheers!

[WriterandPhotographer]

Nice had just bought the Poco F3 earlier today, but I wish I had watched this video. As a long-time photographer, who usually uses a professional camera, I wanted to have a phone that took good images along with video. I thought the images from the 11 Lite looked better. And, although I bought one with plenty of storage, the expandability is a nice feature of the 11 Lite.

[MrSensible]

Hi Adam, thanks for a great comparison of the two phones on my shortlist. I chose the F3. It arrives today. One question if I may? Your F3 looks like it's been updated to MIUI 12.5 Enhanced. I have read that this can drop the Widevine support from Level 1 to Level 3. Can you confirm this wasn't a problem for your phone? Cheers...

[christophery]

Man seems like you work out a lot! These phones must feel super light!

[cloaca]

Great review! I was to choose between these two but the lesser weight of the Mi 11 Lite 5G got me. It's a great phone! I was tired of my last phone (Redmi Note 8). It weight around 190 grams and I know that almost all modern phones are made around this weight.

[noble_lime]

Well using mi 11 lite ne 5g and yes for custom rom f3 is better but mi 11 lite actually capture more details if raw photos is turned on. Also I used mi 11 lite ne 5g does give me full day battery life and the 38 grams do make difference since I have gone in mi showroom and saw both phones and saw mi 11 lite was lite
