    The specs don’t make any sense, this would essentially put it into direct competition with the Mi Note.

      but would also render the mi4i and regular mi4 redundant as surely it will have to follow the redmi trend of being in the lower price bracket i.e cheaper than the mi4 range? The rumoured specs cant be right?

        The Mi4 and Mi4i will be fine because they are smaller phones. Not everyone wants a phone bigger than 5 inches.

          but even so you cant have a lower tier phone with a lower price but higher spec surely? We are talking about half an inch here, from what I see around me in the UK people are more about the latest and greatest specs rather than worry about the screen being 15mm bigger. Giving them that at a cheaper price is even better in their view.

            You must not come around here much. Screen size is very important to people. Some people won’t buy a phone with great specs if the screen is too big/small. My good friend Rob won’t but anything under 6 inches. Me personally there are very few phones above 5 inches I will use, and yes I can notice a significant difference.

      Maybe the MI Note is not selling well and they are coming with this one with few cheaper components to make the price more appealing.
      It’s a realistic scenario to me, but in this case they have to discontinue the MI Note

    I guess the selling price of this Redmi Note 2 maybe higher than Mi4i if all the rumours specs become true. With this type of specs and if the selling price fall below the Mi4i, it’ll become a must buy phone to me and it may kill all other brands phone with MTK processor.

      I think, that Xiaomi made a mistake with it’s Qualcomm smartphones and wants to correct it. There is no apparent reason why they switched SoC supplier , when current MT67xx offerings are superior to Qualcomm’s 64-bit line. Recent phones with Qualcomm SoC doesn’t have that value for the price Xiaomi asks and customers won’t buy them.

    I’m guessing it’s going to have almost the same specs as the Redmi Note 4G, just with a Snapdragon 410 or new Leadcore processor.

    Highly unlikely for a redmi note

    If they are going to release Redmi Note 2 in short term most likely it will come up with SD615, 2GB RAM and a plastic body.

    They have to make it another 1000 yuan device or less while making it somehow inferior to Mi4i. Otherwise Mi4i owners gonna feel cheated. But they have to make it at least equal(ish) against 6 months old competitors like M1 Note. Because they can’t afford to look like that. Tough job.

    If it really come with MT6795, 3GB RAM, metal body and IR blaster price probably will be around 1500 yuan like LeTV x600. They have to make it more expensive than Mi4i for obvious reasons. Anyway it can undermine Mi Note.

    Redmi Note 2 should have launched 6 months ago. Xiaomi’s lines are a mess now.

      I agree with any of the words you said.

      I agree also.
      In my view, Xiaomi didn’t launch a Redmi Note 2 with mt6572 (or the like) because if it did, only few would have bought the Mi Note.
