Mi 11X or iQOO 7 Archives ~ My Mobile India

Snapdragon 870 is unarguably one of the popular chips for Android phones in 2021. The chipset is an upgrade on last year’s flagship Snapdragon 865+ processor and is a better alternative to Snapdragon 888. In fact, the SD 870 is turning out to be a better processor than SD 888 because of the good cooling system and battery optimization. Currently, two of the Chinese tech giants, Xiaomi’s Mi 11X and Vivo’s iQOO 7 have their own Snapdragon 870 powered offerings in the market. Since the pricing of both the handsets is very close, it is worth checking out which smartphone outperforms the other. Let’s take a detailed look at what the two smartphones offer and which one should you go for? Design Mi 11X is a reasonably attractive smartphone. It features all the trappings of a modern handset, such as a small notch, thin bezels and a glossy glass back. The device comes in three colors – Lunar White, Cosmic Black and Celestial Silver.
