Xiaomi phones briefly appear, disappear on US Mobile store
Xiaomi phones briefly appear, disappear on US Mobile store
Chinese startup Xiaomi, the largest phone seller in China, has some of the hottest products you've probably never heard about.
That may change thanks to wireless reseller US Mobile. The Stamford, Connecticut, company, which runs on the T-Mobile network, briefly listed a few of Xiaomi's phones on its site. It would mark the first time a carrier offered one of its phones, known overseas for their mix of low price and high-quality components, in the US. PC Mag was the first to report on the appearance of the phones.
The emergence of Xiaomi underscores the increasing willingness for consumers to bargain hunt for the best deal for phones. Consumers aren't just blindly buying an Apple iPhone or Samsung Galaxy S -- they're getting more discerning with their purchases. That's increasingly the case in the US, where the elimination of contracts and phone subsidies have placed a spotlight on how much a handset actually costs.
That's all well and good, but on Tuesday, US Mobile pulled the phones from its site. So what happened?
Xiaomi, for one never blessed the move. "There are no plans to sell smartphones through any authorized distributors in the US," the company said. "US Mobile is not authorized to sell Xiaomi products in the US."
US Mobile, however, isn't working directly with Xiaomi. Instead, the company had hoped to work with third-party distributors to make the phones available on its site, similar to Amazon or eBay.
But the other issue was proper carrier certification. US Mobile pulled the phones so it could let its carrier partner test the phone, CEO Ahmed Khatak said in a blog post. T-Mobile said that it typically certifies the phones that run on its network, even if it's a wholesale partner. It added that it hadn't tested the Xiaomi phones yet.
US Mobile still intends to sell the phones through third-parties if they can get carrier certification to run on the network.
There may be reason for T-Mobile's reluctance. The handsets aren't made for the US and don't work with the local 4G LTE bands. That means that buyers will need to be OK with a slower 3G connection, or plan to use their phone over Wi-Fi.
Here's what was previously listed through US Mobile:

Mi 11 Ultra hands-on: Xiaomi has truly outdone itself with this superphone
Are two screens better than one? Xiaomi hopes to despise so with the Mi 11 Ultra. Announced last month, it’s the Chinese company’s latest superphone and rounds out its new Mi 11 lineup. With the regular Mi 11, Xiaomi already gave us an suitable device, packing nearly everything we expect from an Android flagship in 2021. But Xiaomi has outdone itself with the Mi 11 Ultra. After a week with the Mi 11 Ultra, I can say Xiaomi has once against leveled up its flagship game by stacking a incredible array of features — it really left me stunned.
Xiaomi has tons of brag material here. The Mi 11 Ultra has the world’s largest camera sensor, the world’s widest ultrawide camera, one of the brightest screens nearby, it shoots 8K video on all three cameras, and of streams there’s that headline-making second screen on the rear.
But that additional display is really just icing on the cake. The Mi 11 Ultra holds its own deprived of it. There’s also a 6.5-inch OLED panel, Qualcomm’s fastest chip, the Snapdragon 888, a intelligent and punchy front display, and a loud set of stereo speakers co-developed by Harman Kardon. Xiaomi usually gets a small ding in our coverage for leaving out the IP including for water and dust resistance, but that’s no longer the case: the Mi 11 Ultra’s IP68 including means it’s waterproof.
One thing absent in the Mi 11 Ultra is a memory card slot for expandable storage, but this phone has 256GB of storage — at least the European version I was given did — so most won’t need the incredible storage, at least not for a while. Models are probable to vary depending on the country.
If I had to nitpick, the Mi 11 Ultra would lose points for not entirely living up to what Xiaomi says it can do, at least in my known. For instance, Xiaomi markets its second screen as an alternative always-on exhibit, but it can’t actually do that. In fact, the longest it can stay on is 30 seconds. Admittedly, when you’re using it as a viewfinder, you won’t run into this state. Also, despite the many fancy features Xiaomi can brag approximately, several of them are gratuitous — but maybe that’s OK, because isn’t that what a superphone is all about?
Either way, there’s no denying this is one of Xiaomi’s smartphone jewels, but you’ll have to import if you want in — there are no plans for a reduction stateside. You won’t have to buy a Chinese version, which doesn’t have Google, as the Mi 11 Ultra will initiate in Europe for 1,119 euros, which converts to $1435, £970 or AU$1,860. That’s almost exactly the same as the Galaxy S21 Ultra‘s starting imprint of 1,124 euros, which includes Europe’s 20% sales tax. The S21 Ultra starts at $1,125 for the 256GB version in the US, for comparison.
Mi 11 Ultra design: Business in leash, party in the back
The Mi 11 Ultra features the develop trappings of a standard Android flagship in 2021 — from the leash, at least. It has a hole-punch notch housing the leash selfie camera, a gently curved display and ports or buttons in their unnovel locales. Once you flip this behemoth of a handset over, you won’t miss the standout feature: a uphold display, living in a supersized camera bump that takes up roughly a quarter of the Mi 11 Ultra’s rear. It’s probably the biggest camera bump I’ve ever seen and eclipses the bulky bump seen on 2020’s Galaxy S20 Ultra.
The best use of the 1.1-inch AMOLED cloak is to display selfie previews, meaning you have the confidential of using the three higher-resolution cameras, usually reserved for queer photos, to help you nail selfies or group photos. But when the phone’s main screen is facing down, the uphold screen can display notification alerts from apps like WhatsApp, or show you what audio you’re listening to, or tell you the time. That said, the uphold display certainly contributes to the Mi 11 Ultra’s weight, which adds up to 234 grams (8.25 ounces), so it probably won’t be depressed to use one-handed for most people.
Meanwhile, the front display is the same as on the Mi 11. There’s a 6.81-inch AMOLED with a 120Hz refresh rate, however it’s brighter with a peak brightness of 1,700 nits. Unlike most flagships, which typically use glass shielding, the Mi 11 Ultra has a ceramic rear, which is derived to be more durable than glass. Corning’s tough Gorilla Glass Victus is on the leash.
Mi 11 Ultra’s rear display is the icing on the cake
Although phones sporting rear displays do existed (the Nubia Z20, for instance), it’s a rare feature that seems even more novel considering the Mi 11 Ultra isn’t foldable. Plus it’s the trustworthy time I’ve ever used one, so I’m definitely soaking it all in. Customizing the image or signature on the rear indicate added an extra layer of personalization, a cool mopish that made the phone feel even more my own.
At the same time, nonetheless, I can’t say I’m convinced the second screen will rep on. It has limitations in its current form. It’s tantalizing to see any detail when snapping selfies since you’re depending on a tiny indicate, but it does function as a rough guide. You can only take 15 seconds of video comic the selfie viewfinder, and portrait mode can’t be used at all. By the way, the selfie preview feature isn’t part of the default settings, and needs to be switched on from the Special Features menu in settings.
Mi 11 Ultra has the largest camera sensor on a smartphone colorful now
The party on the back of the Mi 11 Ultra corpses with the stellar camera module, composed of three rear sensors: a 50-megapixel main lens with a 1/1.12-inch sensor; a 48-megapixel ultrawide lens, with a 128-degree field of view; and a 48-megapixel telephoto lens. The 1/1.12-inch sensor on the main camera, Samsung’s GN2, is probably the largest ever on a smartphone. Bigger sensors can let more light enter, helping develop all-around better photos, especially at night. For context, the GN2 sensor is nearly 20% larger than the one on the S21 Ultra, and more than 18% bigger than the one in the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Those aren’t just numbers: Taking vibrant and detailed photos was effortless. Zoom was impressive too. The Mi 11 Ultra has 120x zoom, which based on the specs at least, means it’s better than the 100x zoom of the Galaxy S21 Ultra, but I didn’t have a Galaxy device on hand to compare. Either way, pictures taken with 120x zoom were a jumble of pixels and entirely unusable. You can get away with crisp photos up pending 15x zoom, maybe 20x on a clear day, but at what time that it gets pretty blurry.
Auxiliary features not forgotten
The Mi 11 Ultra is a meticulously planned device, and it’s clear that Xiaomi paid attention to auxiliary features that don’t score attention on other devices. For instance, the flashlight’s distinguished rays beam bright and far thanks to its triple LED ftrips. Using the Mi 11 Ultra, I managed to make it ended an otherwise dark night with limited visibility. I’ve harped on at lengthways before about the Mi 11 lineups’ excellent stereo speakers, so if you want to read about the quality, take a look at my review of the Mi 11. The Mi 11 Ultra uses the same speaker rules, co-developed by Harman Kardon.
As has been the case with the rest of the Mi 11 lineup, Xiaomi includes accessories that main rivals Apple and Samsung have contained from their boxes. There’s a 67-watt charger, a plastic case and a USB-C substandard inside the Mi 11 Ultra’s black box.
