A few days ago there was talk of Xiaomi 12Lite. This device is expected to be a fourth model of the new series that will debut in Europe shortly. In fact, the three models known so far should be the standard 12, the 12 Pro and the 12 times. To the last was added the 12 Lite which, however, did not show concrete evidence of its existence. On Weibo, the well-known Chinese social network, a Xiaomi executive today confirmed that in fact Xiaomi 12 Lite does not exist. Let's go see the details of the news.
When will Xiaomi 12 Lite be released? Never, to tell the truth ... at least in China. This is what a company executive said on Weibo
Xiaomi 12 Lite will not debut in China. The news is official, since it was confirmed by a member of the company team. Let's talk about the manager known as Cici. In a recent post on the Weibo member, he replied to a user who asked if the device in the "Youth Edition"Would come out. For the sake of completeness, we remind you that the Chinese Youth Edition corresponds to the Lite in the West. Well, the answer was no. We can therefore easily say that if in China there will be no Xiaomi 12 Youth Edition, in Europe there will not be a Xiaomi 12 Lite.
Poco below the comments, as much as it may interest us Global users, also confirmed that there is not even a Civi 2 model. civil it is the mid-range device that a few months ago made its debut in China and that can boast the title of Xiaomi's lightest and brightest smartphone (in every sense).
If what the company manager confirmed was true (and we have no doubts) the last device in the Lite version that we should know is the Mi 11 Lite, known in China as Mi 11 Youth Edition. Clearly it is not excluded that the company can resume the series next year with the thirteenth release. But now it is rather premature to talk about it.
