  • Screen HDR10 Amoled has an insane 2600 nits!
  • The screen is FLAT (Thank you Xiaome) 👍
  • Cameras are amazing (Video slowmotion at 720p 960fps) 😋
  • IP68 dust/water resistant
  • 120 Watt Charger
  • Mediatek Dimensity 9200+ (Claimed to beat Snapdragon 8 Gen 2)
  • 4 generations up to Android 17 Android upgrades and 5 year security support

Obviously It has all the expected sensors and features.

The corners that were cut to get the price down are pretty few IMO:

  • Gorilla Glass 5 instead of Victus.
  • Plastic instead of Alu edge.
  • No Wireless charging

Here (Denmark) the Xiaome 13T Pro is cheaper than One Plus 11, and it beats it in every aspect. It’s almost (but not quite) as good as the Samsung S23 Ultra. To me this seems by far the best option in the price range.

The non pro is $100 cheaper, and you get a slightly less powerful SOC, 67 Watt charger instead of 120, less RAM/Storage, although there are ranges for both.

Edit PS 09. Oct. 2023

Just ordered the pro version with 12 GB Ram and 512 MB storage for € 669,- including tax or USD 565,- excluding tax.

I was waiting for our Solar panels to go online, and that was finally finished today.

I originally planned to buy the One Plus 11, but the curved screen and opposing power/volume buttons turned me away from that.

I’m extremely excited as my current phone is a very cheap older budget phone (Moto G9 power). It has served me surprisingly well, considering it was sub $200 including tax.

      Never had problem with any microsd card and I’ve been running them in smartphones since 2010. It’s not hard to buy a decent card.

      Shrug I guess I just “actually use my phone for stuff”.

      Not wanting to suck Spotifys dick shouldn’t be a niche use case.

        Absolutely, we use MicroSD all the time for our Raspberry Pis, It’s fast compact and cheap.

        These phones only have USB2, so for fast transfer, you have to use something cloud based. A MicroSD would have been nice.

          blaming us for losing all their data

          I have absolutely no clue how that could work? Didn’t they install the SD cards themselves?

              Don’t try to apply common sense to it,

              OK, I guess that kind of customers exist. I’ve personally been selling computers back from the mid 80’s to the mid 90’s, I’ve never had that kind of customer. Not even once. Kind of strange, considering how bad I hear things can be.
