Gizchina News of the week
But these phones are not the real deal, their prices are lower and the specifications are no where near that of the genuine Xiaomi M2! That’s not to say these fakeXiaomi M2 phones aren’t good, they probably are pretty good for the money, but don’t get tricked in to buying one of these clones instead of the real thing!
How to tell a fake Xiaomi M2?
The easiest way to tell if a store is selling a fake Xiaomi is if they have them in stock now and have an in depth hands on review of it on their store! Both of which are totally impossible as the Xiaomi M2 won’t launch until October and the Beijing based phone company has yet to send any media or online store review units!
The next way tell if that Xiaomi M2 is fake or not is by looking at the specs. The real Xiaomi M2 will cost around $300 online and features a 4.3 inch HD screen, Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a Qualcomm Snapdragon quad-core CPU, 2GB RAM, rear 8 mega-pixel rear camera and 2 mega-pixel front. You can get the full Xiaomi M2 specification here.
Fake Xiaomi M2 phones are being listed with much inferior hardware such as a 4 inch 480 x 800 screen, 1Ghz single core cpu, 512mb RAM, 0.3 mega-pixel front camera and a design which looks a lot like the original Xiaomi M1 rather than the smooth white body of the real Xiaomi M2.
So if you find a bargain priced Xiaomi M2online now which seems to good to be true it is because it isn’t!
