Some might mistake the name ‘SE’ for Special Edition, but after reading about the latest specifications of the upcoming device, it looks like it is going to be a less powerful version of the flagship. > The Mi 8 SE could be similar to how Apple sells the iPhone SE and possibly the upcoming iPhone SE 2. The latter is a smaller and watered-down version of its premium iPhone lineup to make it more affordable to the masses. Similarly, the Xiaomi Mi 8 SE could be a less powerful version of the Mi 8 that is scheduled to get unveiled on May 31.
