Unlocked Xiaomi MI-1s.Over in China the word is Xiaomi will begin production of the successor to the popular Xiaomi Mi-1S smartphone, the Xiaomi Mi-Two, as of the 22nd of this month, and Xiaomi beat LG to the punch by announcing the first quad core Krait powered smartphone, albeit the LG optimus will still ship before the Xiaomi Mi-Two handset.Spec wise the Android Xiaomi Mi-Two handset will sport a 4.3-inch IPS LCD touch screen along with 720p resolution, a 1.5GHz quad core Krait processor, 16GB internal storage, 2GB RAM, an 8 megapixel rear facing auto-focus camera with LED flash, a 2 megapixel front facing snapper, WiFi, A-GPS, and microSD expansion.
The Xiaomi Mi-Two is an Android Ice Cream Sandwich Unlocked smartphone and sports a 2000mAh battery, and along with the 16GB version a 32GB model will also become available, however at this time there is no word on just how much the 32GB Xiaomi Mi-Two smartphone will hit the pocket for.The company also announced a mid-range model, which will launch on August 23. The Xiaomi 1S will be powered by a dual-core Snapdragon processor running at 1.7 GHz. Xiaomi plans to offer this as an in-between model to the MiOne and Mi2. The 1S will sell for 1,499 RMB ($235). The company had also reduced the price of the MiOne to 1,299 RMB ($204).
According to the guys, the Xiaomi Mi-1S was only a slight upgrade to the original Xiaomi phone, which apparently sold 200,000 devices in the first 30-minutes, so no doubt Xiaomi are hopping the Xiaomi Mi_two will see just as much success, although if so, one would have though they would have started production of the Android smartphone sooner than this month.Is the Xiaomi Mi2 worth the $314? Xiaomi claims that the Mi2 reportedly beat out the Samsung Galaxy S3 in benchmark tests. And given tight integration between hardware and software, the Mi2 might give the Galaxy S3 a run for its money, considering the price.
