Redmi 11 Prime 5G, 11 Prime 4G: Expected Specifications and Features
The company has already confirmed some of the key specs of the two phones. The 11 Prime 5G will sport a dual-camera setup on the back, whereas the 4G variant will have a triple-camera setup on the back.
5G Processor for the First Time in Prime Series
The 11 Prime 5G will feature a MediaTek Dimensity 700 SoC. Redmi has confirmed the SoC but the RAM, and storage options are not known at the moment.
4G Model To Sport a Triple-Camera Setup
The upcoming 11 Prime 4G will sport a triple-camera setup on the back. While Redmi has not confirmed the camera specs, we can expect the phone to feature a 50MP main camera, a 2MP macro camera and a 2MP depth sensor. It could be a surprise if Redmi swaps one of the two 2MP sensors for an 8MP ultrawide camera.
Dual 5G
Both SIM card slots of the 11 Prime 5G will come with support for 5G network support. The company is yet to reveal the number of bands that the device will feature.
Other Specifications
Both Redmi phones are expected to pack a 5000 mAh battery. The 11 Prime 5G is officially confirmed to pack the massive cell and Xiaomi could also offer the same in the 4G variant. The 11 Prime 5G could sport a 6.58-inch IPS LCD with a 90Hz refresh rate and a Full HD+ resolution. It will also feature a 5MP front camera and support 18W fast charging out of the box.
The 4G variant, on the other hand, will feature a 6.58-inch Full HD+ LCD. It is likely to draw power from a MediaTek Helio G99 processor, which will also be found in the POCO M5.
