Xiaomi Mi Note 2 Pro will run Android Nougat: Report

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 is expected to launch anytime soon. Android Pure recently posted a teaser image, which hinted at September 24 as its launch date, although that seems unlikely. The teaser has Xiaomi Mi Note 2 written on the top and 9.24 written in a smaller text at the bottom. The image also has Xiaomi’s logo at right hand corner.

While the company has sent out invites for the launch of Mi 5s; there’s no official word on Mi Note 2’s launch date yet.

Earlier reports have given out specifications of Xiaomi Mi Note 2. The smartphone is said to feature a 5.5-inch OLED screen with dual curved display. Mi Note 2 Pro will launch in two variants based on display resolution: 2K and 1080p. Mi Note 2 is reported to run on Snapdragon 821 processor, coupled with 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage.

The highlight of Mi Note 2 is the dual rear camera set-up, which was leaked in official renders. The smartphone will come with a metal unibody design. Xiaomi is reportedly dropping external memory support for Mi Note 2.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 will support QuickCharge 3.0 for fast charging. The front home button will double up as fingerprint scanner. According to Phoneradar, Mi Note 2 will cost 2,799 Yuan (approximately Rs 28,000). Xiaomi never launched the Mi Note series in India, so it will be interesting to see if that trend continues should the Note 2 Pro be made official.
