Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G / Xiaomi Mi 11 Youth

Knackiges Display ; Matte Rückseite ; Gute Fotoqualität

Nicht wasserdicht ; Keine Klinkenbuchse

Das Mi 11 Lite 5G bietet genau das, was man von einem "Lite" erwartet. Es ist nicht ganz so schnell und verfügt nicht über die Top-Kamera-Ausstattung und kostet dafür eben auch weniger. Als 5G-Version ist das schnelle Netz trotzdem an Bord und auch das...

Das Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G gehört ohne Frage zu den besten Smartphones im Bereich der Mittelklasse. Die gute Verarbeitung und das tolle AMOLED-Display mit 90 Hz spielen hier perfekt mit der hohen Leistung und der guten Arkkulaufzeit dank 5nm-SoC zusammen.
