Xiaomi Mi 11 faulty Wi-Fi & Bluetooth chip after close to 2 years
Camera becomes blurry after 1 year with no scratches on lens (Known issue with Mi 11 series)
Luckily the phone still have warranty but almost got scammed by Xiaomi Malaysia when they are trying to replace it with Mi 11T which is a huge downgrade

Did you buy an extended warranty or is the standard warranty 2 years.

I think Honor and BBK (Oppo/Vivo/OP....) brands are good. Xiaomi can be iffy because of lemon models and are generally ok if you know how to debloat and tune settings and keep an eye on things, a slightly higher failure rate overall.

Xiaomi had a bad time when displays had ghost touch/input lag problems, I think during the time of Pocophone F1. Updates didn't completely fix things. Software wise Xiaomi is also behind Honor/BBK, their updates break things more often but it cheaper so can be worth the hassle.
