If you are asking yourself how to choose between the Laifen Mini and the Laifen SE Lite, you are not alone! For those of you wondering, here is the answer to your question. We are going to look at five key differences to help you decide.
1. Size and weight
SE Lite: Slim and lightweight at 345 g which makes it ideal for daily home use.
Mini: Even smaller and lighter at 299 g, fits into your handbag, perfect for travel or moving around.
2. Power and performance
SE Lite: Original entry level design with a 1400 W motor that dries fast without heat damage and gives a salon finish. Comes with a one year warranty.
Mini: Re engineered with a 1100 W motor that is slightly faster in design plus Swift Ionic technology for smooth shiny results. Comes with a two year warranty.
3. Noise level
SE Lite: Quiet compared to standard hairdryers.
Mini: A little quieter which makes it gentle on the ears and great for children or sensitive environments.
4. Special modes
SE Lite: Three temperature settings and a Temperature Cycling Mode shown on the handle button. This switches between hot and cool air to protect your hair.
Mini: LED rings at the back show temperatures and Temperature Cycling Mode. It also includes the world’s first Child Mode for gentler airflow which is safer for kids and sensitive scalps.
5. Accessories and use case
SE Lite: Includes one colour coded clip on nozzle. A diffuser and travel bag can be bought separately online. A good choice if you want to style both smooth straight hair and curly wavy looks.
Mini: Includes one colour coded magnetic nozzle and a travel bag which makes it the best option for travellers and on the go styling. There is no diffuser attachment available.
Quick takeaway
Choose the SE Lite if you want a budget friendly everyday hairdryer with strong performance and the option to style curly or wavy hair.
Choose the Mini if you want a compact travel ready hairdryer with extra shine and child friendly features and only need straight smooth blowdrying.
