Xiaomi Mi Note 2 Teaser Leak Tips Dual Camera Setup, Reignites Launch Hopes

The successor of the Xiaomi Mi Note has been rumoured for quite a while now, and now a fresh teaser leak confirms that the official unveil may not be too far. The teaser shows an outline of the Mi Note 2, and confirms previous rumours of a dual camera setup at the back.

This latest teaser poster surfaces again on Weibo (via PlayfulDroid), and shows a black colour variant of what is purportedly the Xiaomi Mi Note 2. The leak reaffirms that the smartphone will sport the dual camera setup at the back, but apart from that, it offers no other clarity. The Mi Note 2 has been rumoured for several months, and was even recently expected to launch on September 14, but that didn't happen either.

Just last week, Xiaomi also took the wraps off the Mi 5s and Mi 5s Plus smartphones in China. They both sport a metal build, and the larger Mi 5s Plus sports a dual camera setup at the back as well. The two smartphones are also powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 821 SoC.

With respect to the Mi Note 2, there's little left to the imagination, as most of its specification details have been tipped online. The smartphone is expected to sport a dual-edge screen just like the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, and a dual camera setup just like the iPhone 7 Plus. It is tipped to come in an all-metal body, and pack a 5.5-inch Oled screen.

The Mi Note 2 is expected to come in 6GB RAM/ 64GB storage and 6GB RAM/ 128GB storage bundles and be priced at CNY 2,499 (roughly Rs. 25,000) and CNY 2,799 (roughly Rs. 28,000) respectively. The smartphone is said to be powered by a Snapdragon 821 SoC, and pack a 3600mAh battery. It's anticipated to sport two speaker grilles at the bottom, and have a fingerprint sensor at the front.
