Snapdragon 821 sits at the core of this one, paired with Adreno 530 graphics and a choice of 4 GB or 6 GB RAM depending on which storage variant you pick, 64 GB or 128 GB. That's still solid performance for everyday use, browsing, messaging, and light gaming. The 5.7-inch AMOLED screen runs at 1080 x 1920 pixels with a pixel density around 386 ppi, so text and images stay sharp, and colours pop the way AMOLED panels tend to do.

The rear camera comes in at 22.5 MP with phase detection autofocus and a dual-LED flash, plus support for 4K video recording at 30fps. Selfie duty goes to an 8 MP front camera. A 4070 mAh battery backs it all up, which is generous for a phone this slim at 7.6mm thick. Xiaomi Mi Note 2 price in Malaysia starts from RM599, and it's available in Black, Gold, and Silver.

On connectivity you get NFC, infrared, dual-band WiFi, and a USB Type-C port, running MIUI 8 on top of Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
