Xiaomi officially unveiled the long-awaited model Mi Note 2. The smartphone has a doubly curved screen, a decent specification and a powerful camera.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 received a housing with a metal frame, finished at the front and at the back with the curved glass panels. The housing is available in gray and silver, and in an exclusive version Piano Black. The smartphone uses double-curved, 5.7-inch OLED FullHD display, occupying 77.2% of the front panel. The panel further boasts of 110% NTSC color gamut and 100,000:1 contrast ratio. This display is reportedly six times more expensive than a conventional one.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 is equipped with a Snapdragon 821 processor clocked at 2.35 GHz and a battery with a capacity of 4070 mAh with the option of fast charging Quick Charge 3.0. The phone is available in two versions with different memory - 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of flash and 6 + 128 GB. The memory was made in standards LPDDR4 and UFS 2.0. Additionally, the second model is available in the variant called " Special Global Edition", characterized by a wider range of LTE bands service. The phone is running on MIUI 8.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 has the AQSTIC HD Audio processor with Hi-Fi sound quality, a fingerprint scanner, NFC and GPS with SAP. As for the camera, the Mi Note 2 comes with the powerful 22.56MP IMX318 EXMOR RS sensor with the EIS (Electronic Image stabilization) at the back. Other features include f/2.0 aperture and PDAF.

Stabilization supports dedicated, 3-axis gyroscope, and the camera also has the ability to record 4K video. At the front there is an 8MP IMX268 EXMOR RS shooter with f/2.0 aperture and beauty 3.0 software.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 in version 4+64 GB costs 2,799 yuan, while the variation of 6+128 GB - 3299 yuan. Option 6+128 GB Special Global Edition supporting 37 LTE bands was priced at 3499 yuan, but I do not know if it stands out only with global LTE service. After the conversion price will amount to 413, 487 and 517 dollars.

In addition to the new phone, Xiaomi also presents new VR goggles, miVR. Goggles were equipped with the motion sensor, and a 9-axis gyroscope. This has provided a 16-fold higher sensitivity and a lower delay, 16 ms. Goggles have the touch control panel and an additional external controller. Xiaomi at the start provides VR content, including more than 500 movies and more than 30 applications. On the development of content works over 200 developers. Goggles were priced at 199 yuan, or $ 30. In addition to these innovations, Xiaomi has something extra: the frameless smartphone Mi MIX, which a few days ago flashed in the leaks, and today was described by Jack.
