Priced at CNY 2,299 (roughly Rs. 23,000), the Xiaomi Mi Note Natural Bamboo Edition will be available in China from March 24. The registrations have begun from Tuesday.
The highlight of the special edition Mi Note is its bamboo back cover, which increases the handset thickness by 0.9mm, but still weighs 5 grams less than the original Xiaomi Mi Note. The back panel is claimed to have passed through 19 different processes to make sure it is smooth.
Apart from that, the specifications of the Xiaomi Mi Note Natural Bamboo Edition are the same as Mi Note. Initially launched in January, the Xiaomi Mi Note flagship smartphone was priced at CNY 2,299 (roughly Rs. 23,000) for the 16GB model, while the 64GB model was priced at CNY 2,799 (roughly Rs. 27,900).
