Chinese companies are really blazing a trail in delivering smartphones that marry high end specs with premiums designs and affordable price tags. We are thinking about the recently launched Meizu M2 Blue Charm Metal and the LeTV Le 1s. To that list we can also add Xiaomi, the biggest smartphone manufacturer in China.

The handset is the Redmi Note 2, which is already available, but this one will be different as it will be clad in metal. Specs include a 5.5-inch 1080p Full HD screen, a MediaTek Helio X10 processor, and 32GB of on board storage.
