Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra specs and features
–The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra looks starkly different from the devices we have seen in quite some time. This primarily due to the massive rear camera module that houses the triple camera setup and a secondary display.
–Xiaomi has used a superior display tech from Samsung dubbed as E4. This display is better with brightness, contrast levels while consuming less battery than other AMOLED displays in comparison. As far as display specs are concerned, the Mi 11 Ultra features a 6.81-inch WQHD+ AMOLED panel with support for a 120Hz refresh rate. The front display also supports HDR 10+, Dolby Vision and can get as bright as 1700 nits. Whereas the rear features a 1.1-inch AMOLED display which is the same as the one used on the Mi Band 5.
