‘M11 Lite launch hinges on demand, 5G roll-out’

Chinese smart devices company Xiaomi will bring the 5G variant of its lightest and slimmest smartphone M11 Lite after 5G network is available in the country or it gets sufficient demand for the handset, a top official of the company said on Tuesday.

The company unveiled two 4G models of Mi 11 Lite each weighing 157 gram for Rs 21,999 and Rs 23,999 which will go on sale on Mi website, Flipkart and authorised retail partner from June 25.

In India, we are bringing the 4G variant first. It does not mean that we cannot bring the 5G variant to India.

We will be more than happy to bring the 5G variant as and when the 5G network rolls out or we get sufficient demand for the 5G variant here in India, Xiaomi India MD Manu Jain said while announcing the launch.

He claimed that Xiaomi has been the top smartphone brand for almost 4 years with almost 30 per cent market share in the last quarter.

The Mi 11X series smartphones crossed sales of over Rs 300 crore within 45 days of its launch, he said.
