Jan 15, 2015: Xiaomi has today launched two devices dubbed as the Mi Note and MiNote Pro . In contrary to people's expectation for Mi4s or Mi5, Xiaomi unveiled the two flagships under the series Note, though they already had similar name for its cheap phablet called Redmi Note. In its annual event at Beijing, Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun took to the central stage and started revealing the specifications of their devices. At first, Mi Note comes with 5.7 inch curved Gorilla Glass 3 display, with resolution of 1920 X 1080 (386 PPI) and super thin bezel of 3 mm. The screen also has adaptive dynamic contrast feature and blue light reducing mode that makes the device ease with your eye. The phone is powered by Snapdragon 801 processor and 3 GB RAM. It weighs 161 gm and has 6.95 inch thickness. The steel framed phablet sports 13 MP rear shooter with 6 element lens, Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) for low light photos, two tone flash feature and 4 MP front snapper. As shown below, the device is known to be available in two universal colors: Black and White. The back of the phone is curved on both sides to make it better fit in the hands. It seems from the picture that the phone will be having MiUi 6 over Android KitKat (4.4.4) and probably have a new MIUI over Android Lollipop soon. Despite having nice features and looks, the price tag of 2299 Yuan (370 USD) is little expensive as compared to Mi4, but is still far less than iPhone 6 Plus. Xiaomi also released a Mi headphone for 500 yuan and a set up box named Mi Box mini for 200 yuan.
As teased earlier for two flagships launch for this event, Xiaomi kept the promise with another epic phone which they call it as the best smartphone in the world: the MiNote Pro. MiNote Pro is the advanced version of Mi Note with Snapdragon 810 64 bit Octacore processor, same 5.7 inch display but with resolution of 2K (2560 X 1440 at 515 PPI), slightly larger Battery of 3,090 mAh and 64 GB memory. The phone is known to have whopping 4GB RAM and supports LTE cat 9, up to 450 Mbps download speed. With the launch of these devices, Xiaomi is no more a cheap smartphone maker as it comes out of his cheap price tag, toMi Note Pro is priced at 3299 yuan ( 533 USD). As people say 4 GB is always better than 3 GB, I am not sure what will the extra GB addition likely to support as I still feel content with my 2GB RAM phone.
MiNote is scheduled to release on Jan 27 whereas Note Pro will only be available in the end of March.
