Xiaomi Mi Note 2 with dual-edge curved display

The Xiaomi Mi Note 2 is one of the most anticipated Chinese smartphones this year. The Xiaomi Mi Note and Mi Note Pro phablets were introduced back in January last year, and it’s about time Xiaomi releases their successor, as it has been over a year and a half at this point since we’ve seen a proper flagship phablet from Xiaomi.

As early as march this year, there were reports that the Mi Note 2 smartphone from Xiaomi would sport a dual curved display. There have been a few teasers and leaks since then. There was a cryptic teaser that said 2>5 which may hint that the Xiaomi Note 2 will be better than the Xiaomi Mi5 and Xiaomi Mi5 Pro.

The renders, which were spotted by XiaomiDevice, show the Mi Note 2 from multiple angles. You can see the dual rear cameras, which Xiaomi introduced last month with its budget-friendly Redmi Pro. The new flagship phone is also expected to offer a curved display like Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7. You can see the similar screen design these images.

Moreover, in the picture, it is found that Xiaomi Mi Note 2 also features a round-shaped Home button which seems to be a fingerprint scanner. In the top left corner, there is also a logo of ‘Mi’ which is confirming it to be Mi Note 2.

Xiaomi plans to introduce several Mi Note 2 variants, and the one that leaked today is actually the most powerful one. This handset is said to ship with a 5.7-inch QHD (2560 x 1440) display, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. The 4,000mAh battery has also been mentioned, and the device will, allegedly, going to be fueled by the Snapdragon 821 64-bit quad-core SoC. The phone will sport two 12-megapixel cameras on the back, and will cost 3,499 Yuan ($526) in China.

Previous reports claimed Xiaomi was gearing up to unveil the Mi Note 2 at an event on August 24 alongside the rumored Xiaomi Redmi 4. However, new rumors suggest we may have to wait until September 5 for the official unveiling.
