Xiaomi, right after the much-anticipated launch of the Mi A1 (Android One) smartphone, has launched the trimmed down 32 GB variant of Mi Max 2 here in India. It will stay alongside the 64 GB variant of the same smartphone in the market.

Irrespective of the variants, the Mi Max 2 features a 6.44-inch full HD display protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 4. Underneath the hood, it packs a Snapdragon 625 processor coupled with 4 GB of RAM. Even though the smartphone runs on MIUI 8 based on Android Nougat, Xiaomi promises MIUI 9 update in the upcoming months.
