I always had the render distance at 16 chunks, which was maximum until a couple days back. Now its showing 11 chunks as maximum. Its the same phone, it has 6 GB RAM, I've used only 38 GB of the 64 GB internal memory of the device. I tried clearing cache, but its still showing 11 chunks as maximum. After playing with higher render distance without any game play glitch, this new lower render distance feels unfair, it was beautiful before.
Please resolve this issue.

I'd recommend you edit your options.txt files (Internal Storage>Games>com.mojang>minecraftpe>options.txt) and set a custom render distance.

I noticed this yesterday, too. Mine was at 16, but now I can select between 5 and 6 chunks.
