00:00In citrus yellow, the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G looks so good.
00:05But will that goodness extend to this smartphone camera's performance?
00:10In this video, we'll find out.
00:12Good day, you beautiful people.
00:17Welcome to Isa Das Tech, where we do tech in your life, in style.
00:20Yes, we're doing our Mi 11 Lite 5G camera test in this video,
00:24so you can see for yourself just how the cameras perform on this thing.
00:28But before that, let me show you my new invention.
00:32Ta-da!
00:33Okay, so let me zoom in and show you, and let me explain.
00:37This is a phone I designed myself in Xiaomi's new Idea Lab.
00:40It's pretty cool because you see those dog ears?
00:42That's a dog translator feature, which I feel is sorely needed in today's smartphones.
00:48Right, Chu?
00:49Like I said, I made this on Xiaomi's new Idea Lab, and this is available for everyone.
00:54And the best part is, when you make your own adventures on here,
00:57you can unlock Xiaomi discounts.
00:59Plus, your inventions aren't just limited to phones.
01:01You can do smart home stuff or even wearables.
01:04And then after letting you create your masterpiece,
01:06it allows you to advertise your inventions and then share with friends.
01:10I absolutely love this. It's just so cute.
01:13All this is done for the Xiaomi Mi Fan Festival,
01:15a celebration of Xiaomi's founding day on April 6th.
01:18I'm just so happy to be able to partner with them and talk about this really fun game.
01:22This cute thing allows you, their users,
01:24to explore possibilities of what tech can bring you in a fun way.
01:28After all, I always say that the best type of tech is the type of tech that caters to your needs
01:33and, well, your whims.
01:36Right, Chu?
01:37If you want to check out this game, you should.
01:41I'll add a link in the description box.
01:43Enjoy!
01:44Now then, let's move on to our Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G camera test.
01:50We're starting off with selfies in that 20 megapixel shooter in the upper left corner.
01:55Hello, lovelies!
01:57So we are yet again doing another camera test.
02:00I'm vlogging with the Mi 11 Lite 5G.
02:04This is the selfie cam and we are shooting in 1080p.
02:07I'm not sure about that.
02:09Alexa, shush!
02:11We're shooting in 1080p 30fps.
02:14The max that this phone can do is 1080p 60fps.
02:17And this is what that looks like.
02:20But there are other cool features on this phone like the beauty mode.
02:25Now, this is a little too much for my taste so that's a little better.
02:32This is at 29.
02:33The previous video was cranked up at like 100.
02:37Now, like I always say and I'll say it early in this video, the beauty mode,
02:41it's cool if you use it like makeup to enhance the real you but never use it to cover who you are.
02:48Having imperfections is okay.
02:54Now, I will have to point out that when you turn on the beauty mode,
02:58it sort of downgrades the video into 720p.
03:01This is 720p now.
03:03So that is something that happens on a lot of phones.
03:06This, on the other hand, is the movie frame mode.
03:09As you can see, we have black bars up and down here.
03:12It just sort of gives you a more cinematic...
03:16Cinematic.
03:18Cinematic look.
03:19There is a dedicated steady mode on the rear camera video but up front, there's none.
03:24But this is Joaquin talking.
03:30There are also some filters on the selfie videos and you can take photos while you're shooting.
03:38You can also sort of mark certain areas in your recording so that you can go back to them later on.
03:45Now, it's time for some selfies but let's put on some new lipstick.
03:49This shade is named Felt Cute by Colourette, a Filipina-owned brand.
03:54So I'm gonna try it on.
03:58Yes, that shade looks good and this is a sample.
04:00Though this phone actually has a very intricate beauty mode and even different makeup modes to choose from.
04:07So you don't even need to put makeup on when taking selfies on here.
04:10We then move on to the portrait mode for that creamy bouquet.
04:13But here, there are different cute cinematic effects which are available also for the rear cameras.
04:18Now, let me know if you want me to test this out more because that will be on a social media test.
04:23On the portrait mode, you can toggle the blur from an aperture of 1 to an aperture of 16, meaning less blur.
04:30Of course, there is a beauty filter toggle and different filters.
04:34Now, my favorite feature, gesture selfies.
04:44We're moving on to the rear camera.
04:46So we have a 64-megapixel main shooter, an 8-megapixel wide, and a 5-megapixel tele-macro camera.
04:53On the back of the phone, we have 1080p 30fps.
04:57This is wide up until 6x.
05:02And you can take photos while you're shooting.
05:06Okay, that is a very bad photo.
05:08Okay, that is a very bad photo.
05:10This is 1080p 60fps on the other hand.
05:14And you can do up until 6x as well.
05:18Now, the thing with this is if you switch back to wide, it reverts back to 1080p 30fps.
05:25Finally, 4K 30fps.
05:29Ooh.
05:30Can zoom up until 6x.
05:33Um, it reverts back to 1080p 30fps on wide though.
05:44There is a steady mode on this, and that's what you're watching.
05:47Although, lighting here isn't as good.
05:50Oh my god, guys. Look what just arrived.
05:53So, zooming in to 6x.
05:57But yeah, I got plants.
06:00But plants that I can eat.
06:02They're babies though.
06:07I'm going to the dogs so I can show you what walking and talking looks like.
06:12Hi, Bruce. 1x up until 6x.
06:17Hi, Bruce.
06:22Wide.
06:28Wide.
06:31So funny how you saw colors change because of white balance on that shot.
06:36But it's because the leaves and the light keep moving.
06:40And yeah.
06:42Anyway, the one on the left is normal walking and talking.
06:47Video on the right is the steady mode.
06:50Now, let me show you another thing that this phone can do.
06:53So, this is wide up until 6x, right?
06:58Yeah, this is the same flower super macro on video.
07:03And you can even do 2x.
07:07That's amazing.
07:13This is what it looks like on 1x.
07:17This is what it looks like on 1x.
07:20Same distance.
07:22Now, there are of course other cool stuff like dual video mode.
07:26Which allows you to see front and back.
07:28Shoot with both cameras on this phone.
07:31There's also short video mode.
07:34For social media, there is movie effect mode.
07:38Which, let me show you how cute the dogs are with this mode.
07:47And of course, there's even vlog mode.
08:04And clone mode on here.
08:06So, if you want to see more samples of those, let me know.
08:10So we can do a social media test.
08:12Right?
08:15Right now, what we're gonna do is we're gonna try taking some low light shots.
08:19Because I'm not going out to take sample photos.
08:23We're gonna make a dark room.
08:25The turn off bedroom light.
08:30Yeah, so this is what everything looks like right now.
08:45Right, now time for some sample selfies in the dark.
08:53Yup, this is wide in the same lighting.
08:56That's it for the low light test.
08:59Bye.
09:02Overall, this phone did well.
09:04Although, at some point, it did heat up.
09:06Though, take note that this happened after having shot so many things.
09:10And while I was shooting concurrently 4K and screen recording in a room that's not air conditioned.
09:17And that too, it's been very, very, very hot these days.
09:21This is not part of the camera test, but I'm serious.
09:24It's so hot.
09:26So maybe, if anything, this might not be the phone if you want to vlog on the beach.
09:31Though, in general, images did impress.
09:34Especially the zooms.
09:36I'm impressed at how the 5X looks.
09:39And even in not-so-great lighting situations like the one pictured, it did pretty well.
09:44Also, that super macro mode looks pretty good in well-lit situations.
09:50So definitely, the cameras on this quote-unquote light phone have lower specs, especially on paper.
09:57Of course, there are some caveats when you use these cameras.
10:01Like there are no crazy zooms or there are no microscope modes.
10:05Neither are there crazy night modes.
10:08For my general vlogging use though, I've barely noticed the spec difference.
