Getting one ?

A little tempted at 2799

If I do get one it’s just to try MIUI 12.5 - they claim it will be cleaner and less bloaty

With this pricing,I think I will wait for the pro/ultra variants

preorder here

https://mi11preorder.3ex.com.my/

I'll wait for the 128GB version

the free gift jangan kena tipu. mana tau only for first 500 only. hahaha

Butterly smooth

Wanna wait for it to hit the same price I got my Mi 10 - RM1999

Can’t believe you already tried it so fast, hahaha...

Does xiaomi still have ads in their phone?

Was once a xiaomi 5 user, then switched to Oneplus.

no AD how to survive?

They can survive just fine, they are just greedy.

Yep, already tried it
Best 2k display so far at Xiaomi range
Best soundstage by Harmon Kardon
Best SD 888 performance
During setup or play light games no heat up just slightly warm
Didn't try high graphic games
🔋 So far so 👍
Signal reception no issue
GPS no issue 😊

Definitely have ads, they counting n earning from ads

Any 1 pre order soon? Tempted to upgrade, luckily havent purchase s21 yet lol

I’m really tempted and poisoned for price but I’m always hear terrible reviews on MiUI so I’m bit skeptical plus no one using Chinese smartphones in our family

Nice bro.. looking forward to trying it at some point

Same here. But kena from Samsung 2 times. So time to change

Just pulled the trigger gg , I saw the review all good , it's just the battery life sux , but the price and specs given really worthwhile than samsung s21

but will they release the Pro/Ultra model outside China when it launches ? am thinking of getting the M11 despite it using the samsung camera lens also

how long u had this for d o?

Few days

Fun fact, any other phone above RM2999 that isn't IP68 certified?

Good phone

price is tempted
but oneplus 9 pro is launching soon

Waiting for telco offer. S21 maxis offer rm2699, will see what the offer for this mi11

The ads are there but can be turned off. Granted MIUI isn’t as clean as Oxygen OS for sure, but MIUI 12 is a huge improvement over previous reiterations of MIUI. I tried both Poco F2 Pro on MIUI 11 and Mi 10 on MIUI 12 last year and the difference is stark. Still had to manually remove the bloatware but overall the experience was good.

samsung galaxy fold 2 5G at rm7999


before sharing your fun fact,

can you tell me how many phones have ip68, apart from flagship samsung and iphone?

Apart from Samsung and iphone,

Huawei - mate 30 Pro, mate 40 Pro, p30 Pro, P40 pro
Oppo Find x2 pro
Oneplus 8 pro
Sony - Xperia 1, 5, 10

All these phones mentioned sells above RM2999, some below. Chill, mi 11 is good. But I'm just having abit of fun because they are obviously leaving the op certification to the ultra model, which is slightly disappointing (similar to every other manufacturers this year)

thanks for sharing this info.


my bad for my negative tone, didnt have any xiaomi before, not planning getting mi11 either.


huawei, its dead.
oppo , come on.
oneplus, too niche for normal buyers.
sony, even oneplus is selling more phones than sony.

so ip68 is belongs to flagship samsung and iphone.



but you are right, ip68 is really cool, i cant imagine using a phone without it.

i can wash my phone anytime under the water tap. or using a phone in a shower.

Most Sony flagships too.

Remind me not to buy a used phone from you bro, hahaha..

For me personally, I think it’s rather disingenuous from manufacturers to have IP68 rating on their phones and yet explicitly state that water damage is not covered by warranty hence I end up every bit as careful with my Samsungs and iPhones as I am with my non-IP certified phones. So not having IP certification is alright for me, as long as the price is fair, and Xiaomi has that in spades.

Ditto, my sister over confident with the IP rating on her Samsung and wash the phone regularly. One time some water sipped in and KEK the display IC got burnt. Another time is her Note9, the charging port also detecting water resistance issue, luckily the inside is still fine.

come on. its real convenient, and during this pandemic, got to wash hands and phone regularly

That’s what she used to believe too, KEK.

Nowadays, I tell her to use alcohol spray or wipe instead. At least alcohol isn’t as conductive as water.

Yeah, my point exactly Given the phone prices of flagships these days, I wouldn’t risk washing my phone, hahaha...

My friend who purchased a new Pro Max 12 during launch day to replace his XS Max actually went and wash his XS Max under the tape with soap and water. Guess what? The display died after that and he sent it back to MacCity for repairs. He was quoted Rm2k for a replacement unit as his display was water damaged. The phone is a paper weight right now.
TBH I have washed my XS Max quite a few times and it's still running fine. Most probably the waterproof membrane gave up after time. So I'll make sure not to wash it anymore after this incident.

No problem with that. But these manufacturers are getting on my nerve, turning yesteryear's flagships into midranger and only focus on the ultra model. Mi 11 is more of a flagship than the others but they never forget to leave out a couple of flagship features.

Last year when oneplus include IP certification for oneplus 8 Pro, many thought that was one of the features that allows oneplus to position the 8 Pro as a flagship, that's my point.

Anyway, the oppo Find x2 Pro is a real flagship (bar the lack of wireless charging). I have time with the device and it is easily among the top 5 android phones last year. Oppo as a whole doesn't impress me, but the x2 Pro was a different story.

Hahaha, will la bro, I will try the Nord before I get the Mi 11... waiting for the same quantum of discount that I got for my Mi 10 previously... so probably 6 months down the road or so...

But to be honest, there's no incentive to try the Nord - price still stubbornly high and no Android 11 still...

Yeah, I remember reading the iPhone XS thread you wrote you wash your phone often and with soap too!

Plan to get mi 11 bro? Haha. But surprised no 12gb ram variant like china set.

Yes bro, plan to try it at some point but probably will wait for some discounts and the 128GB one.

Hahaha, for me 8GB is more than enough

ip rating is just a number. with ip rating , it does not guarantee you can wash or submerge the phone under water of 1m for 30 minutes. phones with ip rating is much higher in price it only due to they need to do a water seal test for each unit before packing, this takes up production cost and time and need to set up a water test production arm, and also need to pay licence for using ip rating. When the phone pass the test, doesnt mean that it will be confirm water resistant, that y the phone manufacturer will not warranty for water damages. water dameges could still happen even if you just run your phone under the tap for 5 seconds.

The cost of doing ip rating will make the phone more by usd 25-35, which is a lot if you compare with the whole cost of manufacturing the phone.

For some phones basically they did the same thing as the phone with ip rating, with rubber sealant at places, but they decided not to spend on doing a production line just to do the water test and which will make the phone cost goes up significantly. This phone can be also at ip 68 rating, but they choose not to do the test because of cost. the only downside is that they cant market their phone as ip 68.

Totally no idea why nowadays Android phone RAM so high
Meanwhile my laptop still running 8gb ram still working fine

My 7 year-old Acer laptop is still running fine with 4GB RAM.

iPhone 12 only has 4GB RAM.

I really don't understand why Android need such large RAM to run smoothly.

Higher ram usually is more apps running at the same time. Xiaomi is known to have bad ram management. But then again you usually don't switch between a lot of apps

Software issue

Ya, on my iPhone I maximum open 6 to 8 apps running at background (no game)
No issue at all

wait for oneplus. hahaha

OnePlus won’t be cheap anymore

mi 10 pro is rm900 more expensive than 10. mi 10 ultra is rm1300 more expensive than 10. i expect the same price guideline also.

The Mi 10 Ultra was never made official here, right?

This post has been edited by attw: Feb 27 2021, 08:49 AM

Nope. It didn't. I felt pro should be enough lah. But i wondering what will they add? Better camera?

Yes... you have a point there. But since many buyers are paying top dollar for flagship phones, they would demand to have IP Rating. It's a measure to make phone manufacturers promise what is on their phones rather than blindly claiming for it.

Its between the need to have and want to have. Again when I pay top dollar for a flagship phone, I want everything the best on it regardless of whether I may need it or not. If not I would have just gotten a budget/cheap phone instead.

no, just imported set.

That’s the way it goes with most “Pro” phones these days, larger screen, better camera and bigger battery.

Would probably be too expensive if it comes here officially

m11 ultra is rumoured to be using Sony's new camera sensor, so i believe it should outperform the m11 and m11 pro in picture and video dept.

The price for base model not attractive at all. Plus camera xde telephoto lens

Thought redmi k40 will hv telephoto, tgk2 xde pun haih

macro would be better for close shot

Redmi k40 pro + also don't have?

Samsung's new sensor actually

https://www.notebookcheck.net/The-Xiaomi-Mi...r.524616.0.html

Meanwhile.... Huawei P50pro rumoured to be using upcoming Sony IMX800 which is the largest sensor in a mobile phone (1")

Do you think this mi11 worth to get by rm2850?

telephoto lens is more useful

xde surprisingly, was expecting at least the pro variant will have but xde
even k30 pro ada decent telephoto lens


nope. might as well get redmi k40 pro

yeah why not Just buy la....life is short

the imported set price for mi 10 ultra 256gb is rm4.2k if i'm not mistaken.

As long as Huawei remains without GMS, it’s hard seeing how the phone will appeal to the masses outside of China. There are workarounds, of course, but it’s still not for everyone.

Too much to pay for a Xiaomi

Mi11 macro camera not useful. U need super steady hand to focus macro shot.

Nice. I just bought the iQoo 7 for around that price, although China set.

how much you bought?
whats your personal review regarding iqoo 7?

got heat issue?

Around RM3K inclusive shipping from a seller on Shopee. Ordered before CNY and got it a few days after CNY, so in total, about 1 week of waiting.

So far using the phone feels quite good. Coming from OnePlus 8 Pro with the curved screen and much lighter and thinner vs the iQoo.

I've seen the issues with the overheating on both Mi 11 and iQoo 7 when they were running the benchmarks but so far in my use, asides from the day 1 when I first started to charge it from < 50% where the phone felt really hot during charging.

But thereafter I noticed it isn't that hot as before [maybe gotten used to it].

That 15min charge time really crazy though. I can complete charging my phone from <20% to fully charged in the time it takes for me to take a shower.

It's a pity iQoo phones aren't available here officially.

Yup. Still a very young brand though. Around 2 years if not mistaken.

Although under Vivo umbrella so it should be quite ok I guess.

Update:

1. Received RM30 rebate from Lazada saying sorry for order cancellation due to their system error.

2. Alternative link provided for affected customer to replace the preorder, the air purifier freebies still available for the affected customer.

Thank you Xiaomi for still honoring our preorder

Hey guys, ang moh in Penang here. New to these Xiaomi phones...but need a new phone.

Currently have a Pixel 3a. Should I upgrade to a Xiaomi 11 or a Oneplus? Sounds like there is a new Oneplus coming soon? Should I wait?

I don't know shit about phones...

Hi, welcome on board!

Xiaomi phones have a reputation for being great value for money in terms of price to hardware specs and performance, however the software overlay is not everyone's cup of tea. It has plenty of unnecessary apps that you don't need and can't remove without extra effort, some of the stock apps have annoying advertisements and once a while you'll encounter a bug or two here and there. Since you currently use a Pixel, I'm guessing the OnePlus' cleaner and lighter user interface will be more around your wheelhouse, but OnePlus phones don't offer the same value for money proposition that they used to. Best wait and see since the launch of the OnePlus 9 is imminent. If anything, you can get the older OnePlus 8 Pro at a discounted price once the new one launches.

oneplus 8 pro ? everywhere sold out

Thanks for the reply. I am more used to the Pixel with no extra crap for sure. I can't believe Xiaomi puts ads in the interface? That is crazy. Do you have to root the phone to strip out all the extra UI junk?

Any idea when the new OnePlus comes out????

I saw some selling new one just 2999...
Clearing stock before oneplus 9 launch...

Xiaomi is more suitable for those which are geeky and know what’s happening to their phones.

As Xiaomi tends to mess up their software updates (buggy) from time to time, if you’re not a tech savvy enough, it might leave some bitter taste in the user experience to you.

As for ads in UI, actually they didn’t done it so. They put ads in their stock apps like Browser, Cleaner, file manager and etc. Most of them can be disable once and for all in respective settings, by disabling the “recommendations”. Though the stock browser did pushed some Xiaomi new launching ads to me recently, there by I’m suggesting don’t use the stock apps whenever possible.

This post has been edited by msacras: Mar 7 2021, 10:22 AM

No, there’s no ad in the interface but just on the stock apps, like file manager, cleaner, etc. And no, there’s no need to root your phone in order to remove the ads or unwanted apps. Plenty of tutorials on YouTube out there.

Heard the new OnePlus launches on the 9th... let’s wait and see

Wow that's soon.

And yes you're right. Moving from OnePlus 8 Pro to iQoo took some getting used too and I kinda miss that slim form factor.

I might decide to sell my OnePlus 8 Pro eventually though.

how much lol
