Xiaomi Shares New Teaser; Mi Note 2 Likely to Launch Soon

Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi has taken to Weibo to share teaser of a new product likely to launch soon. The company as of now has not spilled the beans on the upcoming device but rumour mills suggest it could be the next-generation Xiaomi Mi Note 2 smartphone. Xiaomi's Weibo post said, "Love it, no one lose" and included an image that had "2>5." What that means is anyone's guess.

We can expect the Chinese company to share more of such teasers of the upcoming device. Xiaomi has been for weeks rumoured to be working on the next-generation Mi Note smartphone. A recent leak also pointed that the company may launch a new variant of the flagship Mi 5.

Based on the leaks, the alleged Mi Note 2 is expected to come in three models - standard, high, and top-end.

A Chinese Weibo tipster had suggested that the Xiaomi Mi Note 2 may be priced at CNY 2,499 (approximately Rs. 25,000) for the standard 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage model while the 6GB of RAM and 64GB storage high model will come at CNY 2,999 (approximately Rs. 30,000). The tipster also claimed a third top-end variant featuring 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage priced at CNY 3,499 (approximately Rs. 35,000).

Some of the rumoured innards of the Mi Note 2 tipped include 12-megapixel dual rear cameras, 4000mAh battery, fast charging support, fingerprint scanner, and '3D Touch' display, in-line with an earlier leak.

We'd like to remind readers however, that until Xiaomi confirms the smartphone's specifications and features, the above details will have to be taken with a pinch of salt.
