At the Mi 11 Lite launch event for India, Xiaomi revealed that it has plans to release the 5G variant of the device in the country. A couple of days back, this handset was tipped to debut in the region in September itself. Yesterday, we even got to learn about the phone’s primary specs and price for Europe (€329). Today, another leak hints at the possible price of this smartphone in India.

The upcoming Mi 11 Lite 5G for India and other markets will be slightly different than the original model. This phone will be called Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE, where ‘NE’ stands for New Edition. Other than the new name, the forthcoming handset will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G chipset instead of a Snapdragon 780G SoC.

Talking about the main highlight of this story, the yet-to-release mid-range 5G Xiaomi smartphone will cost around ₹23,000-₹24,000 in India. This piece of information comes from Yogesh Brar via 91Mobiles.

The tipster says that the price of the device will not cross ₹25,000 as Xiaomi wants to under the recently launched realme GT Master Edition, which also has a similar set of features

Having said that, since the phone is said to make its way to India by the end of this month, we can expect Xiaomi to start teasing it sooner than later.

The Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE will arrive with features like a 6.55-inch FHD+ OLED display, 64MP + 8MP + 5MP triple rear camera setup, 20MP selfie camera, Android 11, 6.8mm thickness, and 159g weight. This smartphone could be part of the rumored Xiaomi CC11 series in China.
