Xiaomi’s Redmi unveiled the Redmi Note 11SE in China in May, which is powered by the Dimensity 700 SoC, sports a 90Hz LCD and has a 48MP main camera. Today, the company announced a new Redmi Note 11SE in India with a different design and specification.

The new Redmi Note 11SE is powered by the Helio G95 chip, runs the MIUI 12.5 based on Android 12.5 out of the box (meh) and is available in three memory configurations: 6GB / 64GB, 6GB / 128GB and 8GB / 128 GB. The smartphone is built around a 6.43-inch FullHD + 60Hz AMOLED screen and packs a 5,000mAh battery with 33W charging support.

For photography, you get a 13MP selfie camera on the front, with the quad camera setup on the back including primary 64MP depth sensor units, 8MP ultrawide, 2MP and 2MP macro sensor units.

The rest of the highlights of the new Redmi Note 11SE include a USB-C port, a side-mounted fingerprint scanner and an IR blaster. The smartphone is IP53 rated and comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack, stereo speakers and Hi-Res Audio certification. It also has a built-in NFC chip.

If this all sounds familiar, it’s because the new Redmi Note 11SE is just a renamed Redmi Note 10S launched in India last May with NFC. Oddly, the company even reused the Redmi Note 10S product page graphics and marketing material.

It is unclear what Xiaomi’s logic was behind the relaunch of a year-old smartphone in India as the Redmi Note 10S is still on sale via its official website and the Note 11SE will also be sold through online channels. Then again, we’re used to the Xiaomi group’s love of smartphone rebranding and confusing naming conventions, so no surprises here.

Anyway, the new Redmi Note 11SE will go on sale in India starting August 31 via Mi.com and Flipkart with four color options: Thunder Purple, Cosmic White, Shadow Black and Bifrost Blue. Its price will be revealed on August 26th.
