Xiaomi could announce the Mi Note 2 with dual rear camera and 4,000 mAh battery

Samsung is not the only one preparing a new ‘Note’ smartphone this year as Chinese smartphone company Xiaomi is said to be working on a sequel to the Mi Note which will be officially announced later this year.According to leaked information the upcoming Mi Note 2 will come in at least three variants, a standard version featuring a 1080p display and a high-end version with a 2K curved display, in two storage configurations of 64GB or 128GB.The higher end models will feature 6GB of RAM and a 5.7-inch curved display. At the back there will be a 12MP dual-camera setup, which is highly possible as we earlier heard that Xiaomi is outsourcing dual-camera modules from Samsung.The lower end version however will feature 4GB RAM and a standard 16MP camera, so no dual-camera. Expect the smartphone to run on a Snapdragon 820 or the 821 processor, an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, NFC and a 4,000mAh battery with Quick Charge 3.0.The Mi Note 2 might come with Force Touch, a display feature similar to Apple's 3D Touch which will be a re-branded version of the technology that is expected to arrive in the upcoming Nexus smartphone from Google supporting in Android 7.0 Nougat.Pricing has been leaked with the 4GB model to cost 2499 Yuan (Rs 25,000), the 6GB RAM and 64GB storage at 2999 Yuan (Rs 30,000), and the higher end 6GB RAM with 128GB storage costing 3499 Yuan (Rs 35,000).
