Xiaomi Mi 5 Pops Up On AnTuTu, Scores A Mind Blowing 73075 Points ._._._._.
Xiaomi is expected to release its new flagship, the Xiaomi Mi 5 sometime later this year. According to the recent speculations, the device is expected to come with the new high-end chipset from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 820. It was even said that the launch was delayed because Xiaomi wanted to use the new Snapdragon chip. Now, we may have some idea about the performance of the device, thanks to a leaked AnTuTu benchmark screenshot.
The leaked image shows that the Xiaomi Mi 5 scored a mind blowing 73075 points. That’s even better than the Samsung Exynos 7420 that currently powers flagships like Galaxy S6, S6 Edge and Galaxy Note 5. Given that Snapdragon 820 is expected to power the Mi 5, the performance that we saw on AnTuTu could very well be of the next Qualcomm chip. We expected Snapdragon 820 to perform well as recent rumors have said that the chip will most likely feature four custom Kyro cores clocked at 3.0GHz.
Another likely chip inside the Mi 5 is the Helio X20 with 10 cores. The chip managed to score above 70K on AnTuTu back in April, so this Mi 5 in the leaked screenshot could be powered by the MTK Helio X20 as well. But, that’s just a guess, because almost every recent leak has tipped Snapdragon 820 inside the Xiaomi Mi 5.
As for the specs, the flagship is expected to come with a 5.2-inch 2K display, 4GB of RAM and a 16MP OIS camera. The launch could be around November this year. Pricing is expected to be under $400.
So, which chip would you like to see inside the Xiaomi Mi 5? Snapdragon 820 or Helio x20?
Xiaomi Has No Plans To Launch The Redmi Note 2 In India ._._._._.
It would be unfair to say that the new Redmi Note 2 is as much a revolution (on paper) as the first generation Xiaomi Hongmi. However, it seems like ‘Xiaomi’s second home’ won’t be getting the phone… at least not anytime soon.
There’s a school of thought that this is because of the Ericsson patents that have troubled the MediaTek-Xiaomi duo in India.
Xiaomi just completed one year in India, and risking its image is something the company can ill-afford, even if that means not bring a phone that’s supposedly going to be a hot seller.
“We are continuously evaluating new products that can be launched in India. But, as of now we do not have plans to launch Redmi Note 2 in India”
Speaking to BGR India, a Xiaomi spokesperson revealed “We are continuously evaluating new products that can be launched in India. But, as of now we do not have plans to launch Redmi Note 2 in India.”
This also puts to rest the speculations that we had of Xiaomi pulling off a surprise Redmi Note 2 launch at the August 19th event scheduled for the international MIUI 7 launch.

If you’re in India, you’ll probably have to wait a while to get your hands on the Redmi Note 2. Or you could import from a Chinese reseller, but that would involve a markup of about ~30% that you’ll have to suffer.
800,000 Redmi Note 2’s Sold In 12 Hours, Says Xiaomi ._._._._.
Xiaomi loves numbers. That is no surprise considering the ‘impressive’ sales figures that the young phonemaker manages to secure.
It wouldn’t be unfair to say that it is Xiaomi that got flash sales in fashion. Almost every other smartphone company, especially Chinese, is now having flash sales.
Xiaomi’s newest budget bomb is the Redmi Note 2. The smartphone is priced at a starting price of US$125 (799 Yuan) in China. Very few phones make a lasting impression right from the time you see the specs sheet of those, and the Redmi Note 2 is one of them.
The Helio X10 powered phone boasts enough tech to rival the likes of the Meizu MX5, and even the HTC One M9+ up to some extent.
According to Xiaomi, the company received a whopping 800,000 orders for the phone in a matter of just 12 hours. And when you realize that the Redmi Note 2 is yet to go on sale in any market outside China, the number looks even bigger.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Gets Hands On Treatment, Specs & Price Revealed ._._._._.
Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 2 will most likely debut tomorrow alongside the MIUI 7 launch. We have been hearing a lot about this new phablet since the past couple of weeks and today, we finally have the real images of the handset in action.
Apparently, a weibo user got hold of the upcoming Redmi Note 2 and released some hands on images of the device. We can clearly see the resemblance to the current Redmi Note generation with a few minor changes. These include a round camera unit, instead of square, placement of the speakers at the center instead of the bottom left corner and an additional sensor at the top (IR?), besides the microphone.

The leak also revealed the specs of the new handset, which once again confirms the presence of Helio X10 inside. So, you have an octa-core MT6795 64-bit chip clocked at 2GHz with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. The user revealed that there will be a high-end version too with 3GB of RAM. There will be a 5.5-inch 1080p display, with 13MP + 5MP cameras and Android 5.0.2 Lollipop version with MIUI 6.6 on top. The user also revealed that the price should be in three digits (Yuan), which if true, means that the phone will retail for less than $156.
The overall package looks promising. Since the launch is tomorrow, we don’t have to wait too long to get official details about the Redmi Note 2 phablet.
