in terms of design and The build quality of Xiaomi 11T Pro is higher. Xiaomi has used glass and aluminum to make this product, and as a result, by paying a small amount, you will buy a product that feels exactly like the feeling you get when holding a flagship. On the opposite side, the Galaxy A73 is made of plastic, but this plastic is not of low quality.

But in terms of overall size, the Galaxy A73, although it has a larger display, is smaller than the competition thanks to less bezels around the display. On the other hand, Xiaomi 11T Pro is a thick, heavy and large phone and we do not recommend it for women, especially those with smaller hands.

Xiaomi 11T Pro
Fingerprint sensor is present in both phones, except that in your Galaxy A73 below You have access to the screen, but in Xiaomi 11T Pro, this sensor is integrated with the power button, and fortunately, it is also in the access area. The performance and accuracy of both sensors are good, but in Xiaomi 11T Pro, it is much faster and more accurate because it is integrated with the power button and there is no obstacle between it and the finger.

Xiaomi 11T Pro
The appearance completely depends on the personal taste of users. But in general, we have to say that the front panel of the two products is not particularly different, except that the edges around the Galaxy A73 display are slightly smaller. On the back panel, a rectangular module is installed on the upper left side of the back panel, which hosts 4 cameras and a flash in the Samsung representative and three cameras and a flash in the Xiaomi representative. In these two phones, the module protrudes from the body and is completely visible, but in the representative of Xiaomi, this amount is slightly more.


On the lower frame of both phones, the USB-C port of the charger and the speaker can be seen, but in the representative of Xiaomi on this frame, in addition to these two items, a SIM card slot is also installed. Meanwhile, in the representative of Samsung, the SIM card port is located in the upper frame. The second speaker of Xiaomi 11T Pro is also on the upper frame.


Display
Perhaps the display is the only part where the difference between these two products is practically zero. Both phones use the screen of almost the same size and their refresh rate is 120 Hz. As a result, navigating between the different menus of the two phones will be very enjoyable.

Also, watching movies and series on them will become a pleasant and attractive thing thanks to the quality OLED panel with FHD+ resolution. The only difference between the two phones in this department is that the Xiaomi representative has a higher maximum brightness. However, this difference is not so big as to say that the Chinese representative has a significant advantage over the competitor. ="wp-caption-text">Xiaomi 11T Pro
Software

Hardware
In the hardware department, not only on paper. But in practice, Galaxy A73 has nothing to say. Meanwhile, Samsung has priced its mid-range representative at around $500, in which the Snapdragon 778G processor plays a role as the beating heart. Meanwhile, its Chinese competitor uses Snapdragon 888. Although the Snapdragon 778G is a capable processor thanks to its Cortex-A78 cores, the Snapdragon 888 is considered a flagship.

Xiaomi 11T Pro
But that's not the whole story. Xiaomi 11T Pro uses internal memory with UFS 3.1 technology, while the internal memory with UFS 2.1 technology is used for Galaxy A73, which is slower than the one used in the Xiaomi phone. Also, in the most powerful model, 11T Pro, 12 GB of RAM while for Galaxy A73 this amount is limited to 8 GB.
Of course, the high power of Snapdragon 888 is a bit troublesome. Although in playing heavy games, this phone showed good performance and there was no lag, lag or the problem of reducing screen touch sensitivity due to excessive heat, but in heavy tests, this phone was able to 1 hour, maintain 56% of its processing power. The phone did not heat up, but it lost almost 50% of its power in the stability test. In the graphics stability test, it was able to run with 81% of its power for only 20 minutes, which is considered excellent. But after 20 minutes, the phone got hot and turned on airplane mode. Then he continued the test with 75% of his graphic power. Overall performance is rated good but not great!

Galaxy A73
Of course, tests are always heavier than games and apps, and this means that under normal conditions, you will not face any particular problem with the Xiaomi 11T Pro, because there are few games or apps that use 100% of the Snapdragon 888's power. do Due to its relatively weaker processor, the Galaxy A73 heats up less and as a result can maintain its stable performance for a longer period of time, but in general, this processor has nothing to say against the Snapdragon 888 in any test, and as a result of this section not by a significant difference.
Camera

Galaxy A73
In the camera department, Galaxy A73 uses a better selfie camera and optical image stabilization, and as a result, it can capture images that are better in daylight and especially at night. Any middle class is not able to register them. Xiaomi 11T Pro, however, allows the user to shoot videos in 8K resolution at 30 frames per second and even in 1080P resolution at 960 frames per second.

Xiaomi 11T Pro
In general, both phones have excellent performance in daylight, but in At night, the images captured by the Xiaomi 11T Pro have a bit of noise, but the Galaxy A73 performs better thanks to its optical image stabilization. The ultra-wide camera of both phones is good, but for the Galaxy, it is better because there is more noise in the images recorded by the Xiaomi representative.

Battery and charger

But if the speed of the charger is the criterion, this phone has nothing to say in front of the competition because it supports a 25-watt charger that you can't even find inside the box and you have to pay for it separately, while the Xiaomi 11T comes in the box. Pro also has a 120-watt charger available, which can make the phone ready for another day in less than 30 minutes.
