So what's the difference between Facebook and Facebook Lite? What is remarkable about them? Why call it Lite? This article will answer all those questions for you.
Not everyone is lucky enough to have the latest phone. Some people have to use antique goods, slow or cheap. Such devices often have limited memory capacity and less network connectivity. That's why Facebook Lite was born. This application is specially designed for older applications or does not adapt to high-tech features.
Facebook Lite reduces the frequency of ads appearing
Size and battery
The first major difference that is noticeable is the size of this application. While regular Facebook accounts for about 60MB, Facebook Lite weighs only 2MB. If phone memory is limited, Facebook Lite is a great choice, right?
Similar to the battery, due to its more modest size, the Lite version uses only less than two-thirds of the phone battery power, much lower than the standard Facebook version. Only a small difference but make a significant change when running Facebook for a long time.

Simplify the design
Design is also something to mention when comparing Facebook with Facebook Lite . At first glance, both applications look quite similar but still slightly different. Facebook Lite has smaller text & icons, less smooth animation, simple graphics and less impressive overall layout than the standard Facebook version.
Facebook Lite removes all the additional, unimportant details of this social network. Example: Reduce video resolution from high quality to low.

Consumes less network data
Facebook Lite was developed to help people in the less developed technology region have the opportunity to experience the world's leading social network. Basically, you always need to be connected to the Internet to access Facebook. Facebook Lite consumes very little network space because the developer designed this app for regions with only 2G connections.
Facebook has separate messaging features so people can download the Messenger app. However, Facebook Lite does not require users to install Messenger separately. That is, you can use it in the Lite app. Although you can't use emoji, you can always create an "old" version of it with dots and letters.
