As you may know, Xiaomi is no stranger to the “spray and pray” approach to mobile phone lineups increasingly growing popular in the past few years. Moreover, the Mi 8 family is now sprawling with the Mi 8 Explorer, Mi 8 Pro, regular Mi 8, Mi 8 SE and the proverbial runt, the Mi 8 Lite.

Keeping the light is a 3,350 mAh battery, alongside Android Oreo 8.1.
