Same specs, different name, confusing tactic
Xiaomi has this tendency to rename their phones in other markets in order to cater to customers. However, this just makes them more confused but I guess they really don’t care. To make matters worse, the Mi 11 and Mi 11x are also released in the country. An un-updated consumer might think all these four phones are related to each other when they aren’t.
The Xiaomi 11i and 11i Hypercharge are two examples of this notorious marketing tactic. They offer identical specs as the Redmi Note 11 Pro and Note 11 Pro Plus respectively.
