Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 4G

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 4G is a device that has sparked two major questions: whether it's a worthy successor to the legendary Redmi Note 10 Pro or Pro Max, and if the 4G variant offers more value for money compared to its 5G counterpart, the Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus. Design-wise, the Note 11 Pro 4G boasts a flat-edge design that may appeal to fans of this style, but personally, I prefer curves as they add grip to the device. The build quality is good, with glass on both front and back, and IP53 rating. However, the display is downgraded compared to its predecessor, lacking HDR support. The camera performance is also underwhelming, missing a 5MP sensor present in the Note 10 Pro series. Videos cannot be recorded in 4K resolution or even at 60fps, which is disappointing considering the device's price point. In terms of performance, the device runs on MIUI 13 based on Android 11, which is outdated for a phone priced at Rs. 20,000. The Helio G96 processor feels like a step down from the Snapdragon 732G, and while it handles day-to-day tasks well, it's not impressive in terms of gaming performance or battery life. The battery, however, is a highlight with a 5000mAh capacity and fast charging capabilities. The pricing starts at Rs. 18,000 for the base variant, but it's often out of stock. Considering its downsides, I wouldn't consider this device as a proper successor to the Note 10 Pro series. Xiaomi's decision to use an outdated Helio G96 processor in a phone priced at Rs. 20,000 may be understandable given chipset manufacturers' shift towards 5G processors. However, it still doesn't make this device a standout in its price segment.

realme C33

In the realm of budget-friendly smartphones, two new contenders have emerged: the Vivo Y16 and the Realme C33. Both devices offer impressive features at an affordable price point, making them ideal options for entry-level smartphone enthusiasts. This review will delve into a detailed comparison of these two phones, examining their design, display, camera capabilities, performance, and battery life to determine which one stands out as the superior device.
