  • Xiaomi Redmi 2 Expected to Arrive in India this Week

    Xiaomi Redmi 2 Expected to Arrive in India this Week

    Xiaomi is apparently prepping the launch of its Redmi 2 smartphone in India with the expected launch date as March 12. The device is being teased through an online contest which allows interested customers to win priority passes to purchase it without the hassle of going through flash sales. The contest is a puzzle of sorts asking people to find hidden keywords inside it. Check out the image below:

    Redmi 2 Contest

    It seems a lot of Facebook users have already cracked the code with words such as Snapdragon, wideangle, expandable and matte. Which suggests that the device may be the Redmi 2. Essentially because the Redmi 2 runs on a Snapdragon 410 chipset and also supports quick charging functionality. In addition, it also features expandable storage and a 28mm wide-angle lens with f/2.2 aperture on its rear camera.

    iGyaan spoke to the Xiaomi’s spokesperson, who refused to confirm the arrival of the handset. We do hope the cyberspace isn’t jumping to quick conclusions. We’ll have to wait for a few more days for an official confirmation.

    The contest is still open and interested users can head over to the company’s official website or Facebook page for more details. We can expect the Redmi Note 2 to be priced somewhere around Rs. 7,000.

    Check out the key specs below:

    Display 4.7-inch IPS LCD, 720p HD
    OS Android 4.4.4 KitKat
    Processor 1.2GHz quad core Snapdragon 410
    RAM 1GB with Adreno 306 GPU
    Memory 16GB storage (expandable up to 32GB)
    Camera 8MP rear, 2MP front
    Battery 2200mAh
