Awesome honest review 👍
I'll take Samsung any day over Xiaomi phone's
Overpriced hardware ok but the miui totally destroys the user experience

How does the 10× zoom is bad? You can clearly see everything in the photo

[admiral_xfactor]

Is it supposed to be a review... Cos I don't understand this guy it feels like he has problems with xiaomi

[shethsa]

So here are my thoughts on your review . Frankly it does seem a bit biased against the mi11u. First on your zoom comparisons I couldn’t really make out why the s21u is better at 3x or 10x zoom in your pics . They look pretty similar . Second on the build quality you should’ve mentioned the ceramic back which is a superior material to Samsung’s glass back . Third on the battery performance you don’t mention screen on time -how did it fare ? Was it 6 plus hours? And finally on the charger you show charging time at nearly an hour when most other reviews have got it at 35-40 mins . Would appreciate your responses . Cheers !

4:47 good point no one of the viewers talk about it , good video

You mentioned the screen dimming was happening because of the heat....How much minutes of video can we take before the dimming occurs? Both rear and front cameras?

[DanielEluvathingal]

You should also make a video on Miui 12.5 update on mi11 ultra...

[giovannirusso]

Thank you for your review. For a real comparison you need to wait MIUI 12.5, after update you can use the second display for all the camera features and video. The update will also fix exposure and HDR issues. The update will include better ram management and battery .

Does phone get warm while charging or watching streaming videos?

[cktrading]

I like your review with this, Honest and straightforward . Thanks

[iambrainpur]

you should do review again after miui 12.5

[shethsa]

Thank you . Please do an update review once the 12.5 software is out

12:06 what the fuck is up with xiami 🤣🤣🤣
thanks for pointing out such tiny but important details!

[tsunarun]

Thanks for this nice review 👍
I have the Mi 11 ultra 😜

[denali.]

ممكن نعرف متى يصل الدؤل العربيه🤔
هل سيصل بنسخة ال 512 ultra اتمنه حد يرد علية/وايهم افضل هل ال mi 11 ultra/او S21 ultra"

[ioanliviu]

I prefer Mi 11 Ultra over S21’s exynos with which it is marketed in Europe. It’s Samsung’s fault.

[HighFLYER-]

This feels like you have something against Xiaomi. Xiaomi & Every other reviewer claims a battery charge time of under 40mins (about 36 mins) how did urs go up to about an hour?

[hafizyaakob]

Hi, wow memang padu camera Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra ni 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
