After presenting the new Xiaomi Mi 11 a few weeks ago, the Chinese firm is working hard to launch the Pro version, which will actually be the true top of the range of its portfolio of phones. Now we have known that your camera will suffer a “downgrade” in resolution, but not in quality.
In the last year we have seen many mobile phones with a 108 megapixel camera , in fact the Mi 11 has this sensor, which as we have seen this week, is also reaching some of the cheap mobile phones of the Chinese brand.

It will debut a new 50 megapixel sensor
We already know that more megapixels do not guarantee better image quality, but what we ensure above all is to increase the size of the image, but not its quality. And it seems that Xiaomi is going to offer its new top of the range a smaller sensor, 50 megapixels , instead of the current 108 megapixels. This far from looking like a downgrade of the camera, it means the opposite.

It has been Ben Geskin who has revealed that the new top of the range of the Chinese will have a camera with a 50 megapixel main sensor, instead of Samsung‘s 108 megapixel. Everything indicates that it could be a Sony IMX782 sensor that has not yet been announced, and that the Huawei P50 could also debut. It is hoped that even if it has a lower resolution it will be able to offer us more quality and detail in the images, thanks to even better specifications. Therefore it will be one of the main differences of the Pro model with respect to the standard.
New images with your design
New images have also been leaked showing the new design of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Pro . It must be said that they are different from the ones we met a week ago, and certainly with an aspect much closer to what we could expect from an evolution of the Mi 11 that we met a few weeks ago. In this case a camera module is shown with an appearance similar to that of the standard model, but with more and larger sensors, keeping an aspect that is familiar to us.
This new model is expected to be presented in the month of February , coinciding with the Chinese New Year, which is the date on which we would normally have met the standard Xiaomi Mi 11, but as you know it has been anticipated to the point of having been presented. before the end of 2020. Therefore, everything indicates that the camera will be the main improvement of this Pro model that is closer than ever to reaching the market.
