Xiaomi has announced a ton of devices this year, and the company’s Mi Note and Mi Note Pro devices are amongst the most interesting ones. The Mi Note has been available for purchase for months in China, and the more powerful Mi Note Pro is available for purchase starting today. The company has announced both of this handset back in January, so it took them quite some time to offer the Mi Note Pro to their consumers, but the device is now finally available. Speaking of which, this handset has already been disassembled in China, let’s see what lays inside.
We’ll talk more about the specs of the Mi Note Pro later on, before we do that, let’s talk about its build and the teardown. The Mi Note Pro, much like the Mi Note, sports premium build. The two devices actually look identical, the only thing that differs them from the outside is the gold trim around the Mi Note Pro. The Mi Note Pro is a rather big device, it can be considered a phablet thanks to the 5.7-inch display which lays on the front. There are capacitive buttons available below the display: menu, home and back, respectively. Anyhow, the igao7.com portal has disassembled the Mi Note Pro, and you can check out the results in the gallery down below.
