Xiaomi’s Redmi unveiled the latest member to join the Note 11 family, the Redmi Note 11T Pro and Pro+, a few hours ago. Nothing out of the ordinary really but what caught our eyes is an Astro Boy-themed Redmi Note 11T Pro+ called Redmi x Astro Boy Note 11T Pro+.

The collaboration is just time to mark the 70 years of Astro Boy* this year. Why Astro Boy for Redmi? Well, apparently, Redmi Note is known to be a tough phone, just like the iconic robot boy.

The special edition Note 11T features a beautiful engraving of the 70-year-young boy hero in blueprint style with half of its innards exposed. A design that is not only futuristic but also very Astro Boy. In addition, the special edition will get an Astro Boy-themed UI:

Plus, there is a collector’s worthy Astro Boy-themed packaging, a matching Astro Boy-theme bumper-style case in striking silver, documentation that also features the robot boy hero, and some stickers.

Beyond that, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11T Pro+ is pretty much the regular Xiaomi Redmi Note 11T Pro+ with features like a 144 Hz 6.6-inch FHD+ LCD display with 270 Hz touch sampling rate, MediaTek Dimensity 8100 chip, LPDDR5 memory, UFS 3.1 storage, 120W super-fast charging, 4,400 mAh battery managed by PengPai P1 chip, a tri camera setup (64 MP main + 8 MP super-wide-angle + 2 MP macro), a 16 MP selfie camera, 5G radio, dual nano-SIM, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.3, GPS (A-GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, GLONASS, QZSS), and NFC.
