Tomorrow, on October the 25th, Xiaomi will officially introduce the Mi Note 2. Just a day before, the first live pictures of the device were leaked and show a black phone with curved screen on the sides similar to a Samsung Galaxy Note 7 or Galaxy S7 edge. The back of the phone reveals a single camera in the middle. This does not necessarily mean, that previous rumors stating a dual camera were wrong though, because most likely, Xiaomi will prepare at least two version of the phone. The Mi 5s and Mi 5s Plus follow a similar pattern where only the Plus version shipped with a dual lens camera on the back. The fingerprint sensor is located on the front of the device. Since these pictures originated on Chinese Weibo, we were not able to confirm the source, so take them with a grain of salt.
