FiXato<p>Did some more research and comparisons today into a new <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/mobilePhone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mobilePhone</span></a> after seeing the 8GB model of the <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Xiaomi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Xiaomi</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/RedmiNote11Pro5G" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RedmiNote11Pro5G</span></a> on second-hand marketplace <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/FINN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FINN</span></a> for about the same price as the <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/RedmiNote10Pro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RedmiNote10Pro</span></a>. <br>Unfortunately it looks like the camera chipset isn't as good as the 10 Pro's, and doesn't even support 1080p60 or 4K (though perhaps a <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/GCam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GCam</span></a> port could solve that?) and has dodgy or no electronic image stabilisation.<br>It also looks like they went from a <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/dualSIM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dualSIM</span></a> + individual SD slot on the 10 Pro, to a dualSIM/SD hybrid slot setup on the 11 Pro 5G instead, which is kinda disappointing.<br>The overall chipset seems to be a bit more powerful with better benchmark scores though and slightly better battery life...</p><p>One of the comments on Reddit described it a bit as follows:</p><blockquote><p>"The 10 Pro is the best among the three. The successor of the 10 Pro is the 11 Pro+ 5G ('plus', not to be confused with the budget version which is the 11 Pro 5G)<br>Below the 11 Pro 5G is the 11 Pro. The 11 Pro is the successor of the 10S while the 11S is a budget version of the 11 Pro."</p></blockquote><p>So, I guess my current pick from these <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/mobilePhones" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mobilePhones</span></a> would be the <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Redmi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Redmi</span></a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Note10Pro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Note10Pro</span></a> then... but it's also not quite giving me that 'I want <em>you</em>' feeling.</p><p>I guess I can stretch the phone a bit longer and hope something better pops up, but I do kinda need something better before the temperatures drop, as the current battery does not hold a charge at all in cold temps... Like, it can drop from 50% to 0 in a matter of minutes.</p>
