Want a 5G smartphone at a low price without compromising on performance and design? That’s good, we have what you need! Currently, the Samsung Galaxy A53 5G and the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro are both displayed below €300 at several merchants thanks to different promotions. But which of these two 5G smartphones is the best?
Galaxy A53 5G or Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G: which smartphone has the best design?
In appearance quite similar, these two smartphones are both relatively thin (8.1 mm thick), with however, more compact dimensions for the Galaxy A53 5G. The latter can also boast of offering better overall resistance with its IP67 certification, where its competitor is satisfied with an IP53 label which indicates its vulnerability in the event of immersion.
On the screen side, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G offers, due to its more generous dimensions, a larger display surface (6.67 inches against 6.5 inches), but also brighter at its peak (up to 1200 nits versus 800 nits max). The good news is that both panels are AMOLED Full HD + with an optimal refresh rate of 120 Hz. Whatever your choice, fluidity and visual comfort are therefore guaranteed.
Galaxy A53 5G or Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G: which is the most powerful 5G smartphone?
Even under the 300€ mark, we are entitled today to demand solid performance, especially when it comes to 5G smartphones. And we are pretty well served with these two models.
On one side, there is a Snapdragon 695 chip clocked at 2.2 GHz which, with 6 or 8 GB of RAM in support, delivers a smooth user experience even in multitasking. Engraved in 6 nm, this processor allows you to take full advantage of the power of 5G with the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G, whatever the application.
Opposite, the Exynos 1280 chip of the Galaxy A53 5G promises even more fluidity. Supported, too, by 6 or 8 GB of RAM, it is engraved in 5 nm for even more energy efficiency.
Which of these two 5G smartphones has the best camera?
On its back, the Xiaomi 5G smartphone has a triple module carried by a large 108-megapixel wide-angle sensor that captures light well to deliver beautiful, well-detailed shots. It is supported by an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor opening at 118° and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. This camera can shoot in HD+, just like the 16-megapixel selfie sensor which is housed in the punch of the screen. Opposite, the Galaxy A53 5G remains faithful to the Japanese manufacturer’s strategy with a quadruple rear sensor capable of filming in 4K thanks to a 64-megapixel wide-angle sensor with optical stabilization, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle which opens to 123° and two other sensors of 5 megapixels each (one for macros and one for depth). As for selfies, they are provided here by a 32-megapixel front sensor with HDR.
With a DXOMARK score of 79 (compared to 78), it is likely Samsung’s 5G smartphone that offers the best results.
