Xiaomi,
the Chinese smartphone maker that has been under the spotlight for its
handset sales issues in India, appears to have allowed the
much-anticipated successor to the Redmi 1S to pass through the
closely-watched AnTuTu benchmarks.
The smartphone, codenamed
Xiaomi HM2014811 and
anticipated to be called the Redmi 2S, is seen to sport a 4.7-inch HD
display and run on Android 4.4.4 KitKat. It is powered by a 1.2GHz
quad-core Cortex-A53 LTE-enabled 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410
processor with Adreno 306 GPU, and features 1GB of RAM. Also, the
rumoured Redmi 2S includes an 8-megapixel rear and 2-megapixel
front-facing camera.
Notably, a Xiaomi device named 'Millet
2014811' was spotted
last week on the Tenaa certification website. The smartphone listing
also detailed similar specifications, such as the 4.7-inch display, and
added that the device measures 134x67.21x9.2mm and weighs 132 grams,
which is 26 grams less than the existing Redmi 1S. The Tenaa listing
also showed the handset to house 8GB of internal storage expandable via
microSD card (up to 32GB), 4G LTE connectivity, and a 2200mAh battery
besides the aforementioned specifications from the AnTuTu benchmarks.
Most
of the specifications of the listed Xiaomi smartphone match the Redmi
1S specifications, except that the smartphone appears to have a better
processor, a better front camera from 1.6-megapixel, latest Android OS,
and 4G LTE connectivity - indicating that the smartphone is indeed the
successor to the popular budget smartphone.
Xiaomi, soon after
being permitted to import and sell Qualcomm chipset-based handsets
in India, announced earlier this week that it will hold a flash sale
on December 23 (Tuesday) for the budget Redmi 1S. The announcement came
via Hugo Barra's post on Facebook.
