Super phone for Super Heroes.❤️ You make us proud. #Respect 🙏#Olympics2021 #Tokyo2020 #TeamIndia pic.twitter.com/B5XxBDlKHg — Manu Kumar Jain (@manukumarjain) August 8, 2021 So, as per Jain, Xiaomi, as a “small gesture of thanks”, will gift its high-end flagship device, the Mi 11 Ultra to Neeraj Chopra, who was able to get a Gold medal at the Olympics for his stupendous ~88m javelin throw. Other than him, the company will gift Mi 11 Ultra units to other Indian athletes like Lovlia Borgohain, Bajrang Punia, and more. The Mi 11 Ultra is an advanced, flagship smartphone from Xiaomi that was launched in India earlier this year. It comes with a 6.81-inch 120Hz display, Snapdragon 888 SoC, a triple camera setup, and many other top-of-the-line features. However, the USP of the device is the secondary 1.1-inch display integrated inside the rear camera module of the smartphone. Furthermore, Jain also announced to gift a Mi 11X (instead of Mi 11 Ultra) to each of the Indian men’s hockey team members, who were able to acquire a Bronze medal for their performance. “This is our way of saying thanks for fulfilling our dreams and bringing tears of joy and happiness to 1.3 Billion people,” wrote Manu Kumar Jain in a Facebook post. “Your performance will definitely motivate crores of young kids. You make us proud,” he further added.
