The Redmi Note 11S 5G will retail for PHP13,499. It will be available in a 6GB|128GB configuration. The phone will also feature a 6.6in FHD+ screen with a 90Hz refresh rate. Like the recent trends with triple cameras, the phone will have 50MP + 8MP + 2MP camera with a 13MP front camera.
Powering the whole unit will be a 500mAh battery with 33W fast charging.
This phone borrows the same design and hardware concepts just like that of the POCO M4 Pro 5G.
The phone’s predecessor, Redmi Note 11S, was just released March 4 of this year in the Philippines and was equipped with a Mediatek Helio G96, currently the fastest gaming chipset offered in the Helio G90 series. The Mediatek Dimensity 810 is definitely an upgrade, and if you’re willing to spend an extra PHP1500, you’ll be getting the better version.
The bad news is that the Redmi Note 11S 5G will not have the 108MP main camera that its non-5G counterpart has. The Redmi Note 11S was equipped with a triple camera setup, using a Samsung HM2 sensor that allowed for multiple crop sizes.
The phone is now available in the Philippines at the time this writing was published.
