Xiaomi has previously shied away from releasing its most powerful smartphones in the Indian market, such as last year’s Mi Note, Mi Note Pro, and or even this year’s Mi 5, which took a while to arrive. There has been no official announcement regarding the India launch of Mi 5s and Mi 5s Plus, unveiled in September this year, so far either.The Android 6.0 Marshmallow-based Xiaomi Mi Note 2 sports a 5.7-inch full-HD (1080×1920 pixels) Oled dual-curved display and is powered by the 2.35GHz quad-core Snapdragon 821 Performance Edition SoC. It bears a 4,070mAh battery and Quick Charge 3.0 fast-charging technology, along with a fingerprint sensor on the home button. The smartphone comes in two configurations: 64GB storage + 4GB RAM, and 128GB storage + 6GB RAM.

Also on board is the Aqstic audio processor, with 192kHz/24-bit Hi-Fi sound quality.

On the other hand, the Mi MAX is a concept smartphone that will be sold in limited quantities in China.
