For a lot of people, spending big on a flagship phone no longer holds much appeal, if it ever did.
The parlous state of the world economy, coupled with a mature smartphone market that’s struggling to provide meaningful advancements, means that many are looking for something a little more modest.
Thankfully, there are a whole bunch of compelling handsets available for much less than $1,000 / £1,000, but which offer a distinctly premium experience. Two of those phones are the Xiaomi Mi 11 and the Google Pixel 5.
They have very different specs, designs, and price points, but both offer a great deal of value. So which phone is best for you?
