XIAOMI 11T PRO
Price from £539 / stuff.tv/11TPro
Phones at this price don’t tend to push at the boundaries of tech. It’s not really their job. But the mid-priced Xiaomi 11T Pro really does qualify as a flagship smartphone, in at least one small but useful way.
This phone has 120W charging, almost three times as powerful as the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra’s. Sure, the power brick is a bit of a beast as a result, but Xiaomi says it will up the 11T Pro’s battery in just 17 minutes.
But does it? We got out the stopwatch for a test and used the same method as Xiaomi, charging from 2% to avoid the slow safety charge that kicks in if it dies completely. At 5mins we were at 38%. It hit 69% by 10mins. And, sure enough, at 17mins it reached 100%.
