This 2021 Xiaomi Phone Still Makes Sense! 

Hey guys! Which other older phone do you think still makes sense in 2023? 😇

"inflation is moving way faster than innovation in smartphone market" Beebom gives a legendary line

Using this since the last 6 months... Its absolutely amazing... Yeah the battery falls a little short at the end of the day... But hey... There's fast charging and it doesn't disappoint

I have been using this phone for the past 8-9 months.. I'm really happy with it.. Got the 8 GB version at 19k with exchange and other offers from MI Store online.. Really value for money.. And I have moved from using an Iphone 10 for 4 yrs.. If you are not a heavy gamer... This phone is perfect..

I don't know why, but realised that we Indians really respect the processors with 'G' 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I purchased this phone in December 2021and it is one of the best decisions I have ever made! Even after a year, this phone is very smooth even after filling the phone with unnecessary junk

It's amazing when you make videos like these, where you explore the viability of buying something from the past - rather than something from the present. Great job. I use a redmi k20 from 2019, and I don't see any reason to upgrade now, even after 3.5 years of using it. I use it with a custom rom, and it feels even better than modern phones these days thanks to its seamless display with no camera cutouts.

I have this phone and trust me it's a beast. This phone has literally everything. Thanks for this video.

Xiaomi 11 Lite NE is a beast of a phone

The only issue with this device was black crush, which made the device sometimes unusable

Using xaiomi 11 lite ne 5g for the past 10 months and this is one hell of a phone.. only problem is that xaiomi is not pushing updates like other manufacturers like samsung. The display and camera are top notch and performance has been good. The USP of the phone is the weight. What a light phone is it.. battery has never been and issue. Standby time over 4g is amazing and on 5g not that good. Overall happy to purchase this one ✌️❤️

Using it since 8 months and I've to say that it was a great phone and still is. I mean look at the specs. No one is providing a overall balanced smartphone. I purchased it over realme 9 pro+ even after knowing that i was spending rs 1000 more on it. The camera performance never disappoint and it still beats many 25k smartphones. Even in low light it works great. The design attracts many people. And the display is just top notch. I've to charge it once in 24hrs so no problem in battery department (I don't play games so...). So everything that Xiaomi has packed in it is overall balancing this phone and that's what we expect from a company.

I can also get realme gt 2, 3yrs software update, SD888, IMX766 sensor, LPDDR5,UFS 3.1, dual speaker, 5000mAh

Underrated Gem Long term software support makes this phone ideal for parents I bought 1 for my mom and she loved it

I got a52s for 26k 120hz oled, 778g, solid cameras all around, 13 5g bands,4500mah with 25w Ip67 rating,stereo speakers and headphone jack 4os update, 5yr security (launched on a11 bought on a12 now running a13) All that for 26k and now what samsung is bringing onto table for such spec, -- a73 for 40k🙂

thank you for this video. i bought it in feb 2022 , this is a allrounder .. love it

It actually supports N28 BAND. I too first thought that N28 band is not suppported on my Mi 11 Lite NE when I saw the spec sheet in their website. I have the Jio Welcome Offer. In my room normal 4G struggles but 5G is having full signal. So I wondered what was it. I tried diff apps and every app it showed that its connected to N28 5G BAND. In my hall and outdoor its connected to N78. When in my room its connected to N28 only. Its a superb thing right !!!!!!! And reg the speed in N28 I got max speed upto 40-42Mbps only since its a low frequency band.

Bought This Mobile On Aug 2nd 2022 And Still Feels Like a New Mobile, I Felt Very Happy After Buying This Mobile Comparing With Others

Knew which phone in 5 secs as I'm holding the same phone. I bought it last year when it's original price was 24k with a exchange off of 10k from my 3 year old redmi note 7 pro, it costed me 14k in the end. Insane value for me. Currently running Android 13 AOSPA custom rom with Google photos unlimited backup at original quality. Although my smartphone use is just reading, some social media browsing and media consumption, 778G's performance is top notch and I expect it to emulate Switch games like The Witcher 3 smoothly soon using the being developed Skyline emulator

Completely agree with the video as I'm using the same phone. Phone is very good although cameras due to samsung sensor and battery life are average. Dolby vision screen is great but black crush issue is there with display.

As a 11 LE user from past 1 year,keep one thing in mind.this phone have good display specs but it's having tianma display which have severe black crush issue,90% users in our Lisa community are facing this.

I'd say the Moto Edge 20 Pro is also one that still makes perfect sense to buy. I've been using that phone since Jan 2022 and it has been excellent, to say the least. It still feels completely new.

Watching this on the 11 lite NE. Feeling good that I bought it😂

I bought this one when realme 9 pro + was launched with exchange and got it for 18500 flat and I never regretted my purchase.

Since I got it last 2021, I could never be happier with this phone. Even the battery and charging speeds have been really good enough for my needs. Also, I'm running MIUI 13. Waiting for the next android update soon. And damn, it's so feather light! 🌬️

The moment i saw this phone i was in love with it. It has been a year since i bought it. And i absolutely love it♥️ . Edit: Camera is just something else. It's amazing 🔥🔥

Using this. It's an amazing set 💖

Good evening and nice to see you again, i couldn't agree with you more, and just to verify it, i tell you that i just bought a new Samsung S20 FE 5g, a device from 2020...i could go for the 21FE, but the battery consumption is tragic, and the snapdragon 865 still is more than ok for my usage..

Thanks for bringing this up. I have been using this since July 22 and i really really like overal device as I got 8+128 at just 17k during sale. I'm a custom ROM developer for this ROM and currently using Bootleggers in it. #VFM

I was looking for this phone's review on your channel back in 2021 when I bought it soon after its release. But not finding its review on YOUR channel I was disappointed in my decision of buying it. Now after 2 years seeing your review I am finally satisfied with my decision. 😅 Thanks a ton for this. Keep up the great work 👍🏻

I have had this phone for 9 months now, got it for 19k at the time and like the video says, it is flawless in handling day to day tasks. The display is almost bezeless, and with 10-bit amoled it's a treat. But I absolutely hate the battery on this thing, considering I use my phone too much the battery doesn't last long. I although bought it for 90Hz refresh rate, I have to use it on 60Hz otherwise it bleeds battery.

We need more videos like this! Keep up beebom!

Well, I've suggested this device multiple times as a great pick under 22K in most of the Amazon's Sale Festivals. Phone Looks & Feels Premium in Hand. Firstly the Screen has all symmetrical bezels & there's no ugly chin unlike every phones in this segment, Performance is just next level & consistent, Haptics & Camera output are again best in it's segment, battery performs decent considering its capacity as I get 5hrs of SOT in heavy usage that includes gaming & 7hrs in normal usage. I got this device (8+128GB varient) for ₹13,000 on exchange with my 2yo Redmi Note 9 Pro & Trust me, It was a Killer Deal !!

It's an under rated one 🙂 Need more videos like this

You already mentioned this but I think the Samsung Galaxy M52 5g is still a bang for the buck. I'm just not sure if it will get the same extended software support as the other series.

Guys, i have been using this phone for more than a year. Everything is great as he said but there is a lesser known issue of black crush in this display. At lower brightness the blacks are more greyish in colour and I have tried Pixel OS and the EU version on MIUI 14. I wouldn't recommend this phone if you do a lot of media consumption.

I had doubts about buying this phone or Xiaomi 11i 5G, back in April 2022. Then, I chose Xiaomi 11i due to the exterior looks and 67W charger provided. Now, eagerly waiting for MIUI 14 with android 13 update 🙂. Waiting.... 🙂

I am still using the Max pro M1 , bought it in 2018. But still strong. I hv kept updating the OS, with the current one Android 13 custom ROM. The 9nly thing disappointing is the camera that is not upto expectations, rest all assured it is a rugged phone i hv used so far.

Watching this video on it. Amazing phone. It made phone weight my topmost priority. Once you go light you wouldn't be able to like heavy phones.

Watching on my 9 months old 11 LTE NE 5G...Really unique and value for money phone

I will prefer Moto Edge 30 over this, mostly because of Clean UI & probably Motorola won't brick the device with software updates 😏

N28 band is very important for me because of coverage

I guess Redmi note 10s , still makes sense in 2023, see this phone has good process for both gaming and day to day task, it has 5000mAh battery (33 watts of charging speed) better camera than note 11 series which also includes 5mp macro camera while still staying slim and light in weight and also pretty great when it comes to its pricing.

One of my friends have this and boy, this is one hell of a phone with great display. I really like this phone

The one big drawback for this phone is the lack of proximity sensor. And there is a significant lag when we exit an app and return to the home screen. I was quite disappointed with this phone though it looked awesome.

Sir please review redmi k50i in 2023 Should I buy it in now in 2023🤔

I bought this in 2021, but now I switched to the pixel 6a, I can't figure out why the 60hz on the pixel feels more smoother than 90hz on miui, I do miss 33w fast charging though.

This is the 1st phone I bought after your recommendation. It's a very good light weight phone. Loved it.

yeah I'm still a big fan of 11LT5GNE, And fully satisfied with it.

Trust me for this phone, I have been using it from feb2022, and it is still working flawlessly as my primary device. Just love the 778g processor here,it is best

From the thumbnail I understood it was xiaomi 11 lite ne.... yeah its a weird name. 778, xiaomi instantly it came to my mind.🙃 by the way IQOO 7 is available for 26k insane

I've been using a mi11x since oct'21 & am very happy with it except the camera and the lack of 5G bands as well as Xiaomi has still not provided the Stand alone 5G update for Jio. Also 33W sounds slow, but I haven't had any day when the phone wasn't charged in the time it took me to get ready.

Watching it on my Xiaomi 11 Lite NE 5G 😂😂😂

Dude I also own this phone and using this as the only primary device since oct 2021 and I'm happy with it's features, light weight, performance, and what not but the major downgrade of this phone is not its battery or charging speed but it is "black crust" problem of it's screen. And i don't understand why youtubers don't like to speak about it in any video regarding this phone. You will hardly find any video by good creators like you yourself. By the way cheers for making this video. 🍻

This phone has a big issue of black crush, the unit they sell in india (except review unit of RU-vidrs) all have the issue coz they use a different cheap amoled panel for Indian version, you can check the Amazon customer reviews for pics of the issue

I am using Redmi Note 10 Pro, which only lacks 5G but is a great value all round. 120hz Amoled Screen, 33w charging, 5000Mah Battery, 64MP SONY SENSOR, 5PM MACRO, Stereo Speakers, 732G which still runs quite smooth. Install a Custom ROM and its GG

Commenting Using Mi 11 Lite Ne 5G

I think *Moto Edge 20 pro* still makes enough sense . It's prize is around _21~24k,_ also has a *periscope telephone* lens and *sd 870 5g* _(even better!)_

I think s20 fe 5g is making sense to me

This phone still makes sense but that one n28 band makes it deal breaker if you're using your phone in home you'll not get good 5g signal.

Bought 8/128 for 18k during sales, best for the price I'd say

3:15 I prefer Moto Edge 30 because almost the same specs and then I prefer UI and in both smartphones it has a different UI and I prefer Stock Android and 90Hz VS 144Hz etc.

I bought this phone seeing these kind of positive reviews sometime back. I agree with the looks. It feels great to use this phone without a case. Other that this phone has serious software issues. I tried to go for a walk(wearing Mi band connected to phone and GPS was on) and tried to open camera, it wont let me to take a photo unless the gps gets switched off. I have played battleground mobile and it doesnt work good in this phone. I have to take 5 to 6 photos to get the lense correctly focus the subject. Not sure why they are promoting this phone for a long time.

Bro mobile phone processor ranking review needed. Year wise, brand wise, Top to bottom.

IQQ 75G needs more clarification should I opt for it or not in 2023

spot on Beebom! love u guys...

One thing I want to note: PIXEL EXPERIENCE rom is available for this phone, which has no bloatware and super smooth experience. A killer combination of both hardware and software in this price. One word for this phone with pixel rom: Flagship Pixel phone under 22k

Using since November 21 Pro 1. Camera specially 5mp tele macro camera 2. performance 3. design and build quality Con. 1. N28 band missing 2. Battery and charging 3. Screen black crush issue 4. 3.5mm jack

Purchased in dec 2021 ..still going strong Most 0f the issues highlighted such as black crush / blue tint /battery drain were not a part of my experience ..it has heen mostly related to minor miui bugs which were subsequently fixed with regular updates .. the overall user experience with this device has been pretty good and under 25k it makes a lot of sence given the inflation: innovation ratio as stated

Beebom make a great video about this that they are considering old phones also which make sense...and make easy for the people to buy good phone at reasonable price....loved it❣️

It has amazing custom ROM support too with GCam. I'm using this phone and it's superb.

Watching this on a Xiaomi 11 T pro. The Xiaomi life's older brother. Xiaomi 11 T pro I feel is also a vfm flagship experience with sd 888, good camera, and super fast charging. Got it on offer for 29k. Only downside being Miui, but i feel it has also improved, still has to improve a lot more! I see more sense for going with this rather than a Samsung galaxy A series. If you're getting a Samsung, better get the S series with all the bells and whistles 😆

Awesome phone!😍😍😍 Design wise and for daily use... always getting people to ask about it...

I bought this phone in April 2022 and I love almost everything about it, except the battery life ofc.

Now I have been using this phone since 1 year. Honestly I have no issue with this. This phone never feels outdated if you have the Diamond dazzle (white one). Camera good, macro was excellent and the in hand feel. The display was superb bcuz it had the Dolby vision. I play Apex legends and have no problem at all if you play decent games.

I've this phone and I truly resonate with your words. And this phone was one of the first few models to receive MIUI 14 update based on Android 13.

It feels better 😇 when you watch a video that already in your hands

Well it makes me happy to see this video, cause i decided to buy this in june 2022, and also got a killer deal with a exchange bonus and i got this phone in 16k only

I bought 8 mobiles and still recommend this is a good mobile in Xiaomi India but the promise from Xiaomi India Android updates are toooo delay and most waiting for Android 13 😞

The mi 11x is also very close.. 870 But it's bigger and bulkier M52 and a52s from samsung Pixel if you can get a deal

The best phone from xiaomi was the redmi k20/20 pro. Good cameras [including telephoto], good processor, fantastic design and the price was also justified. I don't know why xiaomi is not making phones like that one...

Mi 11 Lite NE 5G user here, brilliant phone, but it is plagued by severe black crush issue. Tried changing the display panel twice, still that issue is there. Sent countless emails to Xiaomi, but still issue is not solved

I WAS planning to get this one, thank God a channel made a video about it

Veryyyyy happpppppppppy with purchase of this phone Got the 8gb variant with the exchange offer at 14250 . Great display, good cameras, superb performance 2 more Android updates and 3 yrs security updates. Superb value for money

I just bought IQOO NEO 6 at 20k with bank offers and exchange....MIUI and no OIS are the deal breakers for me!!!

I'm using this beauty since November 21, and it is the best phone I purchased in 2021. Still makes sense to buy in 2023. Battery backup is great. I get 6hrs to 6.5 hrs SOT with around an hour of calling everyday. The only problem is, I don't know why, but i'm Unable to get 5g Network on Jio Sim.

Your video's subjects just boom, sir

I am currently using Mi 11X (bought it for 24k) and would still prefer it over any other smartphone under 25k till date cause it's just better !

Lol I guessed it from the thumbnail because it has 778g. It's the xiaomi 11 lite ne 5g. But when u said lightweight, I understood

Bought this phone back in Nov. 2021, trust me this phone is an winner. First of all the design and build is super awesome, i have the Diamond Dazzle color which looks really premium. display is great, oled with 90hz works nice. SD 778G works flawlessly cameras are good but with Gcam it takes a lot better photos. battery is well optimised now with Android 12 update. Gives you 1day of usage normally. Still a good choice !

I am a proud owner of Xiaomi 11lite NE 5g, purchased on the 1st sale. No complaints no regrets

I've been using Xiaomi 11 lite ne 5g since the end of 2021, the phone is totally same in both camera and performance segment. Its really a wonderful smartphone by Xiaomi, just love it.

have been using this phone for 2 years and all my friends will beg me to take their pictures on my phone. the pictures look absolutely stunning in the phone.

Edge 30 is much better , because you missed out OIS , Stock Android , 778G+( not sure if + version could do something ) , and blazing 144Hz.

Using the Samsung M52 5G, absolutely flawless, huge battery, great display, wonderful Samsung updates and One UI, Good 5 G support, Decent Camera but again the same 778 chip and gcam helps. Just can't complain about anything 1.5 years down the line, and can't even find a new phone to recommend with this many ease of use features.

I've been using this phone for 11 months now and I've gotta say, this is a good value for money device. I purchased this phone at 28k from Xiaomi outlet. A few software bugs here and there but this phone works like a charm, especially the 90hz refresh rate. Performance is very good and I haven't faced any lag up till now. I also keep getting 5g connection in some parts of Mumbai wherever the network service providers have installed a 5g tower. The main camera takes good quality photos during daytime. At night time the photos don't come out that great. Overall it's a very good phone with minimum to no hiccups. Can recommend this to anyone who's looking for a phone offering smooth usage at a price range between 23k to 28k.

I own Realme X7 Max 5g and it still makes so much sense even in 2023. 8Gb Ram 128 gigs of storage and dimensity 1200 is an absolute beast. I'm not a gamer but i have tried gaming and phone performed really good. Stereo speakers and Amoled FHD panel this phone is still definitely making so much sense in 2023. I would however be real and say that the cameras aren't the best thing on this but they're definitely not bad.

Bought this phone in diwali 2022for my father at 18.5k with exact same thoughts u conveyed through this video.. and I would say it's camera is soo good it can be compared to an iPhone..anyday

So, as I'm writing this on my 11 lite ne All I can say is, I love this phone but, I cannot recommend it to anyone, the bugs I face, and the heating issues but also the charging and discharging makes the experience a lot more sad. So I've ordered pixel 6a, Since I can work with slow charging as long as my phone lasts a day, and if I can have the best camera this price segment has to offer, what can I say?

The phone is great, i have its predecessor that is Mi 11 lite 4g which is almost the same except 5g and ofcourse the processor, but it has very annoying black crush issue while watching content and also screen flickering at low brightness, so I'm wondering if the 5g varient has that issue aswell? So Can some using the phone confirm or deny this please so that it can help people make better decision if they are considering this device Thankyou in advance
