While Xiaomi's August 13 event is nearing, another piece of news surrounding a smartphone from the company's stables has hit the Internet. An upgraded version of the Redmi 2, called the Redmi 2 Prime, has been spotted listed on an online retailer in India.

The Redmi 2 Prime was released in China earlier this year as the Xiaomi Redmi 2 Enhanced Edition. It is currently listed as 'unavailable' on Amazon India, and details complete specifications. The listing hints that the company is set to launch the handset in the region soon. It was first spotted by Newzars.

The Xiaomi Redmi 2 Prime or Redmi 2 Enhanced Edition, features the exact same set of specifications except twice the RAM, and twice the inbuilt storage, with 2GB of RAM instead of 1GB, and 16GB of inbuilt storage instead of 8GB. The price of the smartphone is kept undercover for now.

To recall, the dual-SIM dual-standby Xiaomi Redmi 2 sports a 4.7-inch IPS display with HD (720x1280 pixel) resolution and 312ppi. The smartphone runs MIUI 6, based on Android 4.4 KitKat.
