When Style Meets Technology  

Partnering for the first time, the collaboration between Xiaomi and Swarovski rides on the same vision of creating the best version of ourselves by ‘Owning Your Style’. It’s an expression of ourselves for who we want to be and how we want to live our lives in the way we want. Over time, smartphones have evolved to be more than just a communication or entertainment device, it has now become an everyday accessory that complements our everyday style.

“At Xiaomi, we believe that everyone has their own unique style. Collaborating with Swarovski is one of our bold moves to push the concept of ‘Style Meets Technology’. We hope that through this partnership Xiaomi fans will be able to discover and own their style, complementing our lightest and slimmest 5G smartphone yet – the Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE,” said KM Leong, General Manager of Southeast Asia, Xiaomi International.

Setting a new benchmark in the industry, Xiaomi works relentlessly to create new and unique offerings for all Xiaomi users - reflected deeply in Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE. It is an innovative device combining flagship features with outstanding design. It is Xiaomi’s lightest and slimmest 5G smartphone to date, measuring a mere 6.81mm and 158g. Its feather light, sleek, and elegant design is aligned with Swarovski’s passion and craftsmanship philosophy.

The Limited Edition Shines Your Style 

Today’s ever-changing styles allow Xiaomi to introduce four stunning colors – with Truffle Black, Bubblegum Blue, Peach Pink and the signature Snowflake White.
