Xiaomi kickstarted the new year with the launch of the much-hyped Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge in the Indian market. The device is a rebranded variant of the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ which was launched in India last year. The biggest USP of the smartphone is its 120W fast charging support.

Our Take
Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge and Vivo V23 both run on the MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset whereas the Nord 2 equips a more powerful Dimensity 1200 SoC. Apart from this both Xiaomi and Vivo smartphones come with a 120Hz AMOLED display while the OnePlus device offers a 90Hz AMOLED display. In terms of rear cameras, Xiaomi defeats both of its competitors.
On the other hand, Vivo takes the lead by offering a dual selfie camera set up. But again Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge outshines the other two as it supports 120W fast charging which is claimed to charge the device in just 15 minutes. This would benefit those who are constantly on the go. In terms of appearance, usage, and specs, all three phones are virtually identical. So, until we get the opportunity to test both Vivo and Xiaomi devices we would suggest you to go for HyperCharge.
