Indian athletes won seven medals at the Tokyo Olympics 2020, which is India’s best performance at the Olympics in over 100 years. The Government of India, state governments and many other companies have announced rewards for Olympic medalists in India.

The Mi 11 Ultra’s USP is its camera system. It features a 50MP Samsung GN2 1/1.12-inch sensor, coupled with a 48MP ultrawide camera and a 48MP telephoto sensor with 5x optical zoom. The device also has a 1.1-inch secondary display next to the camera module on the back. 

At the front is a 6.8-inch WQHD+ Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The curved display comes with support for 1700 nits of peak brightness, which is higher than the 1500 nits on the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (Review) display. The phone also gets a Snapdragon 888 SoC under the hood with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It packs a 5000 mAh battery with 67W fast charging support.
