Screen HDR10 Amoled has an insane 2600 nits!
The screen is FLAT (Thank you Xiaome) 👍
Cameras are amazing (Video slowmotion at 720p 960fps) 😋
IP68 dust/water resistant
120 Watt Charger
Mediatek Dimensity 9200+ (Claimed to beat Snapdragon 8 Gen 2)
4 generations up to Android 17 Android upgrades and 5 year security support

Obviously It has all the expected sensors and features.

The corners that were cut to get the price down are pretty few IMO:

Gorilla Glass 5 instead of Victus.
Plastic instead of Alu edge.
No Wireless charging

Here (Denmark) the Xiaome 13T Pro is cheaper than One Plus 11, and it beats it in every aspect. It's almost (but not quite) as good as the Samsung S23 Ultra. To me this seems by far the best option in the price range.

The non pro is $100 cheaper, and you get a slightly less powerful SOC, 67 Watt charger instead of 120, less RAM/Storage, although there are ranges for both.

Edit PS 09. Oct. 2023

Just ordered the pro version with 12 GB Ram and 512 MB storage for € 669,- including tax or USD 565,- excluding tax.

I was waiting for our Solar panels to go online, and that was finally finished today.

I originally planned to buy the One Plus 11, but the curved screen and opposing power/volume buttons turned me away from that.

I'm extremely excited as my current phone is a very cheap older budget phone (Moto G9 power). It has served me surprisingly well, considering it was sub $200 including tax.

except for the SOC

The SOC is supposed to be very good, especially the one in the Pro version, it's a bran new SOC that is supposed to beat the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, which is currently considered the best for Android on the market.

I can't find comparing benchmarks yet, but for sure it's better than the older gen, since it's now based on the latest gen Arm, and the Pro has a way more powerful GPU.

Edit PS:

I found this Geekbench test, where it's slightly faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.

The GPU side is very fast too, it's the Immortalis-G715 MC11 the newest most powerful original Arm GPU AFAIK.

Only Adreno 740 (Snapdragon 8 Gen 2) and Apple m1/m2 beat it in 3DMark. I saw a review that showed it maxes the frame-rate in all the games they tested. Unfortunately I can't remember which, because I've basically seen all there are on YouTube yesterday.

Edit PPS:

The GPU is actually faster than iPhone 15 Pro Max!!

That's because the iPhone throttles already after 2 minutes, and runs at only 65%, while the Xiaomi 13T Pro maintains 95% performance after ½ an hour of GPU intensive gaming.
