TENAA, the Chinese agency which is said to be the equivalent of the FCC over here in the US, has already listed the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2, which is a new generation smartphone – except for the fact that this is but an incremental update, and not a major one. What you will get with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2, however, would be a 5.5” display at 720p resolution, and we do not have any idea as to what kind of chipset this particular model would run on. However, it does come with a quad-core CPU that has been rated at 1.2GHz, which would most probably point in the direction of a Snapdragon 410. This is a new smartphone that will boast of 1GB RAM as well as 8GB of internal memory which you can further expand by another 32GB using a microSD memory card.
At the back of it lies a 13MP camera, while the front-facing camera would let you capture a 5MP selfie if you so desire. The overall dimensions would remain similar at 154mm x 78.7mm x 9.5mm, while it has ended up lighter at 188 grams. Expect the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 to run on Android 4.4.4 KitKat right out of the box, where you can choose from various colors such as red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and white. Pricing is estimated to remain within the CNY799 ($130 after conversion) region.
