Xiaomi has launched the much-awaited Redmi Note 2 and Redmi Note 2 Prime phablets in China.
The new phones run on Android 5.0 Lollipop-based MIUI 7, which is the company’s latest UX offering.
There is no statement by the company on launching the phones outside India yet, but given Xiaomi’s interest in the Indian market, one can expect both the phones to come to India in a few weeks from now, as Xiaomi is planning a preview of the MIUI 7 on August 19.
Both the phones will be priced below Rs 10,000 when they launch in India.
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 (3G+4G) and the Redmi Note 2 Prime sport a 5.5-inch FullHD IPS display with a 1080x1920 pixels resolution and 401ppi pixel density.
The Redmi Note 2 (3G+4G) is powered by a 2GHz octa-core Mediatek MT6795 Helio X10 SoC coupled with PowerVR G6200 GPU and 2GB RAM. The Redmi Note 2 Prime will have the same SoC clocked at 2.2GHz.
All new phones will sport a 13 megapixel rear camera with autofocus and LED flash along with a 5MP front camera and will come with a 3,060mAh battery.
