This video is dedicated to taking a deep dive into the camera performance what you can expect
out of that main 108 megapixel f 1.75 aperture camera which is the hm2 from samsung that sensor
now we do have an 8 megapixel ultra wide and a 5 megapixel macro camera the selfie camera on
the xiaomi 11t pro here is a 16 megapixel one so before we jump into our samples let's take
a look at the stock camera app and what we can do i'll quickly run through this so we've got
our hdr mode you can override this you can turn it off you can keep it on auto which
is what i do and will for the samples i show you later on ai mode now i tend to keep that
off now with the cameras you can swap over right now it's 108 megapixel with an f 1.75 aperture
we can go over then to our 8 megapixel ultrawide which is the weaker cameras
of the 11t pro here and then digital zoom two times so the shutter rate it's really good
super quick the isp and the snapdragon triple eight handles that just fine then we have five
times digital not a very good looking photo and you can go all the way up to ten times right here
which is unusable that's just no it's only all painting mode really it does not look very
good at all so portrait mode you can adjust the backgrounds if you want they've got the cinematic
effects and over in the more here you will find 108 megapixel mode we do have a slow motion
dual video time lapse clone movie effects vlog there too so if we go into the video mode here now
so with the main camera we can shoot 4k 30 4k 60 8k 30 frames per second which is 6k upscaled
to 8k and with the ultra wide we only have 1080p so over on the left there is what they call here
you can see when i enable this this steady video mode all right and then moving into the pro mode
here so this works for both the video and the camera we've got our white balance focus
shutter rate goes up to 30 seconds iso up to 6400 you can select which lens you want so the wide
ultra wide or our macro 108 megapixel mode of course only works on the main sensor and
if you tap on the upper left here we do have this which is a few other settings but most importantly
raw mode is there now anywhere where you are in the camera you can tap and hold it will
lock the focus and lock the exposure which is very handy especially in the video modes
first up video performance this is our front facing 16 megapixel camera it
has electronic image stabilization but only 1080p max now you can shoot 1080p
30 or 1080p 60 which i'm currently doing right now as i walk ahead you can see the electronic
image stabilization does a reasonably good job now in the sun i noticed that sometimes you get
these fluctuations with the order exposure where you may see it kind of like pulse white for a
couple of seconds you notice this more if you are wearing like a white t-shirt like me at the
moment that can happen audio quality is good and overall for 1080p footage at 60 frames per second
i do like what i'm seeing here but i do hope that xiaomi in the future with their flagships can add
4k 30 and 4k 60 with the front-facing cameras and what about the quality indoors well it's pretty
good not bad at all as you can see here 460 frames per second bit of echo coming through of course
rare video now so we can shoot 4k 30 4k 60 8k this has electronic image stabilization you see as i
walk along quite steady this footage i do like the quality and you are able to apply a little
bit of digital zoom here so that is now two times which still looks okay anything over two starts
to get a little pixelated and doesn't really look that good so that is now four times digital zoom
in my box that's not really usable so pulling right back here that is the furthest we can go
back it won't let us go over to the ultra wide you need to stop and then press record in the ultra
wide camera for it to work now there's a reason why there is and that's because we can only shoot
1080p maximum with the ultra wide camera here on the 11t pro which is a shame so there's no
4k ultra wide support the electronic image stabilization here is good just a shame we
do not have any optical image stabilization and our audio bit rate is the 320 kilobits per second
we are now seeing with their flagships and have for some time this is now 4k 60 frames per second
with electronic image stabilization going down my stairs here seems quite steady but it does
work around a little bit there is no optical image stabilization with the 11t pro here
this is now sample of 8k video it does not have any electronic image stabilization 30
frames per second so it is actually really 6k upscaled to 8. that's how they're able to achieve
that 30 frames per second
and now moving over to low light performance with these cameras with video this is the front facing
camera of course only 1080p maximum electronic image stabilization it looks so much brighter
than it really is like right now the sun has set uh there's a lot of ambient lights around but
it still looks yeah a lot brighter than it really is a little bit of noise coming through of course
with these conditions and now low light with our main camera so this is the 108 megapixel sensor
and the electronic image stabilization not looking as good here as i walk along
not too bad considering that yes it is night time now and there's a lot
of ambient light around which is definitely helping out with this quality but you can
see more shakes and jolts coming through with the video i know ultra wide now
1080p that's all it can do in low light it's definitely looking a little grainy especially
on the left side right along the edges there struggling now in these conditions
okay now to quickly recap i think that the low light performance considering the fact that
this sensor does not have any optical image stabilization they came out okay they came
up pretty good they look a lot brighter than what it really was now the colors from the main sensor
seem to be what i would call closer truer to life but oversaturated at times especially when we had
a look at that hibiscus red flowers so that one way too punchy over saturated i didn't have the
ai mode on i turned that off in fact it's off by default and it clipped a few of those red
colors there now the ultrawide camera is the weaker camera out of all of these four cameras
we've got on them on the phone here okay and i noticed around the edges that it can look quite a
bit blurry and really i would have preferred that xiaomi had gone with a 16 megapixel ultrawide or
13. and that way we also would have got with this is more than just 1080p recording on the ultrawide
camera so at the moment we only have 1080p and it's not going to change so that's it there's
no 4k with ultra camera sadly now the main footage for video on that 108 megapixel hm2 it looks good
but it certainly is not the best i have seen for video performance there is a lot of panning jutter
that comes through especially in low light you can see some of those jolts and movements when you
move about with the electronic image stabilization i mean it does do a good job especially in bright
light it's a lot better now we have the 8k video 2 with this but it's not a true 8k okay it's going
from 6k resolution upscale to 8 and that is how it is 30 frames per second and that's why they
call it and label it xiaomi as hkai and the ais because they're artificially well scaling it up i
don't know if artificial intelligence is actually involved in that not at all it's just being scaled
up right there so all of the portrait photos i think they come out pretty good even the indoor
ones in low light that one on my daughter there i still think reasonably good there so there we go
now you know the full story here with the cameras of the xiaomi 11t pro but what about
their whole phone in general well that's where you need to check out my full review
where i go into the battery life the build quality the screen in detail
speakers gaming performance all that's covered including benchmark so make sure you do check out
the full review that i have it should be showing up here and there's a link down in the description
of this video so do check that one out thank you so much for watching this 11t pro camera review
