Everything Specs
When it comes to Xiaomi, you know what to expect- solid smartphones at an affordable price. Well, when speaking about Xiaomi Mi Note 2, this concept is full fledged. A high-end Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon 821 chipset, great Quad-core (2×2.35 GHz Kryo & 2×1.6 GHz Kryo) CPU and Adreno 530 smartphone graphics will make this phone great for gaming. Oh, multitasking is great here thanks to 4 GB and 6 GB variants of Xiaomi Mi Note 2.
Speaking of memory, Xiaomi Mi Note 2 has two variants; one with 64 GB of ROM and the other with 128 GB. This tells us that Xiaomi Mi Note 2 doesn’t have microSD slot, unfortunately. On the back of the phone, there is a 22.5 MP camera, which is amazing. It can record 4K videos at 30 fps and the front-facing 8 MP camera isn’t that bad. It’s also important to mention Li-Ion 4070 mAh battery, capable of enduring few days of moderate use, without the need for charging.

When it comes to Xiaomi, i used one before and it was good, so i decided to pick up Xiaomi Mi Note 2 and… well it's also good! It has a good battery and it's 5.7" big with full HD resolution. I bought the 6 GB version as i'm a little demanding user.
