Although the battery is initially obstructed by a bunch of cables, we're glad to find at least some handy pull tabs for easier removal.

Power-wise, the battery offers 17.8 Wh and comes in a tad below the 18.4 Wh in the Xiaomi Mi 10.

Whilst this sounds like stuffed pockets compared to other phones like the iPhone 12 Pro Max (14.13 Wh) or the Samsung Galaxy Note 20 (16.69 Wh), keep in mind that the Mi 11 has to feed its large 120 Hz screen and power the latest Snapdragon 888 chipset and its X60 modem.

And actually this battery consists of two 2300 mAh cells connected in parallel. Charging two cells via two separate connectors makes it possible to push more electrons into the phone faster, especially when the state of charge is low.
