Display Comparison

The Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G boasts a significantly brighter display, reaching 746 nits compared to the Moto G62 5G’s 552 nits. This translates to better visibility outdoors under direct sunlight. While Xiaomi claims an 'Infinite' contrast ratio, this is a nominal value; the Moto G62 5G’s measured 1571:1 contrast ratio is a concrete figure, suggesting good black levels. The difference in brightness is the most noticeable distinction, impacting everyday usability for outdoor users.

Camera Comparison

Both phones feature a 'Photo / Video' camera setup, but detailed sensor information is missing. However, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G’s chipset generally supports more advanced image processing capabilities. Without specific sensor details, it’s difficult to make a definitive judgment, but the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G’s more powerful processor suggests better low-light performance and more sophisticated image algorithms. We can assume both phones will include standard features like HDR and portrait modes.

Performance

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G utilizes the Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 5G (6nm), a more modern and efficient chipset than the Moto G62 5G’s Snapdragon 480+ 5G (8nm). The 6nm process node generally leads to improved thermal efficiency and power consumption. While both CPUs feature a 2.2 GHz peak clock speed, the Snapdragon 695’s Kryo 660 Gold cores offer a performance advantage over the Kryo 460 cores in the Moto G62 5G. This difference will be most apparent in demanding tasks like gaming and video editing. The Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G is likely to offer a smoother, more responsive experience.

Battery Life

The Moto G62 5G edges out the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G in endurance rating (122h vs 115h), suggesting it will last longer on a single charge under typical usage. However, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G’s 67W wired charging is a game-changer. It can reach 50% charge in just 15 minutes and fully charge in 42 minutes, significantly reducing downtime. The Moto G62 5G’s 15W charging is comparatively slow, requiring considerably more time to replenish the battery.

Buying Guide

Buy the Motorola Moto G62 5G if you prioritize long battery life and a more conservative, software-focused experience. Its 122-hour endurance rating is ideal for users who frequently find themselves away from a power outlet. Buy the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G if you value rapid charging, a brighter and more vibrant display, and a more feature-rich software experience, even if it means slightly less overall battery endurance.

Frequently Asked Questions

❓ Does the Snapdragon 695 in the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G handle demanding games like PUBG Mobile smoothly?
The Snapdragon 695 is capable of running PUBG Mobile, but you'll likely need to use medium graphics settings for a consistently smooth experience. The chipset's improved GPU compared to the Snapdragon 480+ in the Moto G62 5G provides a noticeable advantage, but it's not a flagship-level gaming processor.
❓ How significant is the difference in charging speed between 15W and 67W? Will I notice a real-world impact?
The difference is substantial. 15W charging will take several hours to fully charge the Moto G62 5G. The Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G’s 67W charging can fully charge the phone in just 42 minutes, meaning you can quickly top up during short breaks and avoid being tethered to a charger for extended periods.
❓ Is the camera on the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G significantly better than the Moto G62 5G, even without knowing the sensor specs?
While we lack specific sensor details, the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G’s more powerful Snapdragon 695 chipset allows for more advanced image processing. This typically translates to better dynamic range, noise reduction, and overall image quality, particularly in challenging lighting conditions.
