Finally, the D-day is here, Xiaomi‘s latest flagship Mi Note 2 is set to drop in some few hours time. We hav seen quite a number of renders of the expected device but its always not enough when the device in question is the Xiaomi Mi Note 2.

There is no doubt that the Mi Note 2 would feature a design unlike anything Xiaomi has done in the past, using a double curved screen and flexible display supplied by LG. The device looks very much like the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge or botched Note 7 but expect lots more innovative features from Xiaomi on it.

First the home button may likely be the same ultrasonic fingerprint sensor used on the Mi 5S and we should be seeing a highly powerful camera on the Mi Note 2 as well. Earlier rumors and renders had suggested dual rear cameras but that is not very likely.

As for the price tag, notable industry analyst Pan Jiutang has added his voice to say the Mi Note 2 would be price around 4000 Yuan ($590). This is not the first time a figure as high as that is propping up, though, so we’ll keep that at the back of our mind while we wait for the official words from Xiaomi. Gizmochina would bring you updates from the conference as they happen.
