Meet the Xiaomi 11T Pro, a ‘Cinemagic’ powerhouse with a 108MP pro-grade camera

As social media and content creation become increasingly part of our daily lives, high-definition photography and videography are now defining factors of a great smartphone. Xiaomi is looking to lead both fronts with the launch of its new premium flagship, the Xiaomi 11T series, featuring the Xiaomi 11T and Xiaomi 11T Pro.

While both smartphones offer a slew of innovative ‘Cinemagic’ filmmaking features, the Xiaomi 11T Pro is the ultimate flagship for aspiring content creators looking for industry-leading filmmaking technology right in the palms of their hands. Read on to discover how this flagship smartphone is pulling out all the stops to pack a powerful performance for content creation.

‘Cinemagic’ filmmaking capabilities

Let’s start with the ‘Cinemagic’ buzzword that Xiaomi has proudly bequeathed to the Xiaomi 11T Pro’s cinematic filmmaking capabilities. Behind the ‘magic’ is a triple camera set-up: a pro-grade 108MP wide-angle lens, 2x telemacro lens, and a 120-degree ultra wide-angle lens. Plus, the smartphone boasts advanced computational capabilities with one-click AI Cinema modes and 4K HDR10+ recording, all of which offer over a billion colours for clear, dynamic, and life-like video quality. This allows users to capture footage with the same smart ISO technology found in digital cameras, optimising brightness, colour, and contrast ratios frame-by-frame for stunning cinematic results—or as Xiaomi calls it, *Cinemagic*.

Audio Zoom completes the content creation toolkit, allowing users to zoom in on objects both optically and audibly. Meanwhile, the advanced Night mode feature ensures users capture their creative ideas no matter day or night.

Ultra-fast 120W Xiaomi Hypercharge

So, you’ve heard of fast charging and perhaps even super fast charging. But the Xiaomi 11T Pro knocks them all out of the park with the proprietary 120W Xiaomi Hypercharge technology that can achieve a full charge in just 17 minutes. Yes, you read that right. The phone’s 5,000mAh dual-charge battery, which is the best battery and charging technology combination Xiaomi has introduced to date, will allow power users to keep up with their creativity and minimise downtime for a full day of phone usage.

To put things into perspective, a 10-minute charge will power the phone from zero to 72 per cent—without overheating—which is equivalent to 11 hours of calling, seven hours of video playback, five hours of navigation, or two hours of video recording at 1080p.

What’s more, the Xiaomi 11T Pro comes with 34 battery charging safety features and maintains 80 per cent battery health after 800 cycles, with the TÜV Rheinland Safe Fast-Charge System Certification giving an added peace of mind. If you find yourself in temperature conditions as low as -10°C, fret not, Xiaomi claims that the battery remains reliable even then.

A display that’s built for work and play

To complement the ‘Cinemagic’ experience, the Xiaomi 11T Pro features a responsive 6.67-inch FHD+ 120Hz AMOLED flat display with TrueColor, Dolby Vision®, HDR10+, and 1,000 nits peak brightness to provide an outstanding viewing experience in any situation. Expect vibrant colors, incredible brightness, and contrast-rich detail with up to 480Hz touch sampling rate to boot.

On top of that, it comes with eye care functions to protect users from eye strain, such as Reading Mode 3.0 and True Display. The latter automatically adjusts the colour temperature according to the surrounding conditions. As for protection, the display is built with Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus™.

Audio is not forgotten to complete the cinematic experience. Think Dolby Atmos® immersive audio in addition to dedicated dual speakers with Sound by Harman Kardon to deliver intelligible audio be it for music, podcasts, movies, or gaming.

A powerhouse through and through

All these cutting-edge photography, videography, battery, and display features are supported by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 processor. This 5nm octa-core processor ensures battery efficiency while offering exceptionally fast performance in day-to-day tasks, with advanced ISP capabilities to power through even the wildest and most creative undertakings.

The Xiaomi 11T Pro (8+256GB) retails for RM2,099 and the Xiaomi 11T Pro (12+256GB) retails for RM2,299. Both variants are available in Meteorite Grey, Moonlight White, and Celestial Blue colours.

Pre-orders are open from 23 to 29 September 2021 from Xiaomi’s Official Store on Lazada or Shopee before the official arrival in all Authorised Xiaomi Stores nationwide from 2 October onwards.
