Rather old, slow, and limited subset of Flash Player 7.

Macromedia® Flash Lite 1.0 and Macromedia Flash Lite 1.1 are based on
Macromedia Flash Player 4. Flash Lite 2.0 and 2.1 (collectively called
2.x) are based on Macromedia Flash Player 7 and support most—but not
all—features in Flash Player 7. Flash Lite 2.x also includes features
specific to mobile development that are not available in Flash Player
7. For example, in Flash Lite 2.x, you can load device-specific media
types (images, sounds, video) that aren’t natively supported by Flash
Lite.

Flash Lite 2.x also includes device integration features, such as the
ability to make phone calls and send text messages.

Flash Lite 3.0 is also based on Flash Player 7, and it introduces
support for Flash Video, for browsing most Flash 8 content, as well as
numerous performance improvements. A new security model that mirrors
the model used in Flash Player 8 is also included in Flash Lite 3.0.
