Xiaomi 11 Series used and refurbished
The Xiaomi 11T, 11T Pro and 11 Lite 5G NE debuted together on 15 September 2021. They were among the first phones to reach shops outside China under the plain Xiaomi name, without the old "Mi" prefix. The change didn't stick everywhere – even on Xiaomi's official support list, the 11T appears as the "Mi 11T". The 11T Pro got the most attention: with its 120 W charger it charges fully in about 17 minutes.
At SWOPiFY you'll find used and refurbished Xiaomi 11 series phones – the Xiaomi 11T, 11T Pro and 11 Lite 5G NE, in 128 GB and 256 GB versions. The classic Mi 11, Mi 11 Lite and Mi 11 Ultra have their own category – the Xiaomi Mi series. SWOPiFY partners check every unit, and if something isn't working right, the phone goes in for repair before sale.
Which Xiaomi 11 models can you find at SWOPiFY?
The Xiaomi 11T and 11T Pro look almost identical. Both have a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate, a 108 MP main camera and a 5000 mAh battery. The difference is inside: the 11T has the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chip and 67 W charging, while the 11T Pro has a Snapdragon 888, 120 W charging, Dolby Vision support and speakers tuned by Harman Kardon. The Pro is for someone who games and wants the phone charged during their morning coffee.
The Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE is the model for people who don't like heavy phones: it's 6.8 mm thick and weighs 158 g. NE stands for "New Edition" – on the outside it's almost a copy of the Mi 11 Lite 5G, but a different processor works inside, the Snapdragon 778G. The AMOLED screen refreshes at 90 Hz, and the 4250 mAh battery charges at 33 W. This model also takes a microSD card, though in place of a second SIM.
Why consider a refurbished Xiaomi 11 series smartphone?
A refurbished Xiaomi 11T or 11T Pro costs you far less than they did on launch day, and you still get a smooth screen, a strong camera and very fast charging. A refurbished 11 Lite 5G NE, meanwhile, is one of the cheapest ways to get a light phone with 5G and an AMOLED screen.
These models are five years old now, but their processors still handle everyday tasks with ease. That keeps the phone in use longer instead of ending up in a drawer or at an e-waste collection point. It's a small step, but a real one.
What should you check before buying?
Updates are the key issue. According to the Xiaomi Trust Center, support for the 11T, 11T Pro and 11 Lite 5G NE ended on 23 September 2025, four years after launch. The 11T Pro got HyperOS with Android 14 in Europe in 2024, and that was its last major update. If you pay with your phone or keep a banking app on it, remember that new security holes won't be patched any more. The second thing is charging: you'll only reach 120 W on the 11T Pro and 67 W on the 11T with a Xiaomi charger, and with another one the phone charges more slowly. Watch the names, too – the 11T and 11T Pro look the same in photos, and the 11 Lite 5G NE is easy to confuse with the Mi 11 Lite 5G.
You can filter Xiaomi 11 smartphones by:
- storage – 128 GB or 256 GB;
- RAM – from 6 GB in the 11 Lite 5G NE to 12 GB in the 11T Pro;
- colour – grey, white and blue, plus pink, green and black for the 11 Lite 5G NE;
- price range;
- condition.
If you take a lot of photos and shoot videos, go for the 256 GB version – the 11T and 11T Pro have no memory card slot. For messaging, maps and browsing, the 11 Lite 5G NE with 128 GB is enough.
What does the technical check involve?
Before a Xiaomi 11 series smartphone goes on sale as refurbished, it goes through a 44-point checklist, including:
- battery – health and physical condition, important for phones charged at 67 W and 120 W;
- screen – touch, brightness, dead pixels and the state of the glass;
- all cameras, including the 108 MP main camera on the 11T and 11T Pro;
- fingerprint reader in the power button and face unlock;
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC and 5G connectivity;
- SIM card detection;
- speakers, microphones and USB-C port, together with fast charging.
Can you trust refurbished Xiaomi 11 smartphones?
Refurbished Xiaomi 11 smartphones at SWOPiFY are phones with a past: used, inspected and tested by SWOPiFY partners and, when needed, repaired. We don't present them as new.
Signs of use show up straight away on the glass backs of the 11T and 11T Pro, which is why every unit has a grade: Premium, Excellent, Good or Fair – with a description of its look and battery condition. The phone comes with a warranty, so if something breaks, you report it without chasing the seller across forums.
Got an old smartphone you no longer use?
The trade-in programme will give it a valuation, and that amount comes off the bill for your next phone. Instead of sitting in a drawer, your old phone could still serve someone else.
