Review of Xiaomi Redmi 2 at a Glance:-
This handset is successor of Xiaomi Redmi 1S with some improvement; featuring 8 MP camera, 4.7 Inches screen, Snapdragon 410, 1 GB RAM and 2200 mAh battery. The design is similar to Redmi 1S but slightly lighter in weight. Half of the phone towards front has black coloured plastic while other half towards rear has 5 different colour variants i.e. Black, White, Yellow, Pink and Green. With dimension of 134 x 67.2 x 9.4 mm it’s very comfortable to hold in one hand with Good build quality. 4.7 inches screen with 720p resolution and 312 ppi display density produces sharp images; fonts are visible even in sunlight; and that display is protected with Dragontrail glass. Capacitive buttons in red printing doesn’t have backlit.
It is powered with 1.2GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC with 1 GB RAM runs Smooth but can’t afford too many applications and sometime mobile start heating near camera. 2200 mAh battery is better than Redmi 1S but what can we say if they not resolved the heating problem as it was already one of major problem in the Redmi 1S.
