Xiaomi to relaunch the Redmi Note 10S as Note 11 SE in India; Check out the specs, launch date and more

Xiaomi’s Redmi had unveiled the Redmi Note 11SE in May in China, which is powered by the Dimensity 700 SoC, sports a 90Hz LCD, and features a 48MP primary camera. The company announced a new Redmi Note 11SE for India that will come with a different design and completely different specs. In effect, it is a completely different device.

The upcoming Indian version of the Redmi Note 11SE will closely resemble the Redmi Note 10S, and is powered by the Helio G95 chip, and comes in three memory configurations – 6GB+64GB, 6GB+128GB, and 8GB+128GB.

What is surprising is that Xiaomi is relaunching a device that is already doing well in India in the budget segment, without tweaking the device’s design and specs a lot. It seems that even Xiaomi is using the same product shots and marketing material to market the upcoming Redmi Note 11SE.

Xiaomi has had a rather peculiar naming strategy with their Redmi Note devices, especially when it comes to the Note 11 nomenclature. Sudhanshu Ambhore, a tech enthusiast took to Twitter to point this out.

<blockquote class=”twitter-tweet”><p lang=”en” dir=”ltr”>Out of curiosity I decided to count and name all devices from the Redmi Note 11 Series launched worldwide. To avoid confusion I&#39;ve mentioned SoC name. <a href=”https://t.co/X8nanUptX9″>pic.twitter.com/X8nanUptX9</a></p>&mdash; Sudhanshu Ambhore (@Sudhanshu1414) <a href=”https://twitter.com/Sudhanshu1414/status/1562454249019408388?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>August 24, 2022</a></blockquote> <script async src=”https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js” charset=”utf-8″></script>
