While these devices are yet to be launched in the global market, the company has announced new variants of the Mi 8. Well, a new device dubbed Mi 8 Lite has been launched in the company's home market China alongside the Mi 8 Pro.
As its name indicates, the Mi 8 Lite is a mid-range smartphone. It sports a notch on top of the screen to house the selfie camera, earpiece and other sensors. There is a glass panel at its rear and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor as well. The device also has a dual camera module at the top left corner with the two lenses positioned horizontally. Notably, these smartphones were speculated to be the Mi 8 Youth and Mi 8 Fingerprint Edition.
Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite specifications
Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite bestows a 6.26-inch FHD+ display and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. The screen has a 2.5D curved glass layer on top.
