Today's the youngest we will ever be

Being young is not about age, it's about believing in your dreams and the power to change the world. To us, the Redmi series is exactly that - uncompromising flagship performance coupled with sleek and minimal design. In fact, Redmi Note 2 combines a powerful processor, a PDAF fast focusing camera, dual-channel RAM and several features worthy of flagship smartphones.

5.5" 1080p IPS fully laminated display

Phone displays are our window to the world. To do that, we made sure Redmi Note 2 has a 1080p full HD display with 400 PPI for utmost clarity. In-plane switching (IPS) technology delivers a wide 178° viewing angle. It's fully laminated so colors pop off the screen, producing a truly immersive experience.

Top-range 13MP rear camera

The world views your daily life largely through the lens of your smartphone camera, and we know how important that is. That's why Redmi Note 2 is fitted with a top-range 13MP rear camera that counts Samsung as one of its key suppliers. Focusing takes 0.1s with Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF), a technology universally found in DSLR cameras. Capture your selfies, smiles, food, travels and life in vivid color and amazing detail. Crop, share, and watch the likes roll in.

5MP front camera with Beautify

That's why Redmi Note 2 has an OmniVision 5MP front camera with f/2.0 aperture for bright, clear selfies. No makeup? No problem. Beautify adds subtle magic to smoothen skin, slim the chin and brighten eyes. A countdown timer lets you focus on the perfect angle instead of fiddling with the shutter button. It's everything you need for that perfect selfie. So just relax, put your best face forward, and let Redmi Note 2 take care of the rest.

MediaTek Helio X10 octa-core 64-bit processor

The Helio X10 processor uses next-gen 64-bit architecture, which performs better than regular 32-bit processors at the same frequency. An absolute multitasker, it has a 2.0GHz clock speed and has eight A53 computing cores that can operate simultaneously to help you fly. Redmi Note 2 also reads and writes memory up to two times faster on eMMC 5.0 flash internal storage, compared to phones with eMMC 4.5.

2GB LPDDR3 dual-channel RAM

As the name suggests, dual-channel uses two lanes to feed memory to the processor instead of one, producing faster speeds than single-channel RAMs. It clocks up to 933MHz, which gives you 3.5 times higher transmission speeds than 533MHz RAM. Faster response times let apps load quicker and run games more smoothly, so you never have to hit the pause button.

High capacity 3020mAh replaceable battery

Get more done on a high capacity 3020mAh (min) battery. Combined with several MIUI power saving features, Redmi Note 2 offers up to 120 hours on standby. So when you're done WhatsApping, Snapchatting and Instagramming at the end of the day, you're still left with battery to spare. The battery has fast charging technology and is removable, so you can take an extra pack for the long road ahead.

4G Dual SIM and the latest 802.11ac Wi-Fi

We can't survive without friends or the Internet. Redmi Note 2 helps you stay connected round the clock with two SIM slots, both with 4G support. It also boasts the latest dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard for ultra-fast connections when you stream, download and game.

Runs MIUI 7, yours by design

Loved by over 150 million users globally, MIUI, our playful and highly customizable Android operating system gets even more personal with MIUI 7. Choose from 4 T6 beautiful, individualized UI designs: Rosé, High Life, Pink Blush and Ocean Breeze. This is on top of thousands of themes available, thanks to our community of talented designers.
