Xiaomi Redmi 2 budget smartphone with Octa-core chip spotted

According to four new listings on China's TENAA certification database. Xiaomi is planning to launch Xiaomi Remi 2 budget smartphone with Octa-core chipset for it's Redmi 1 successor previously launched for $130. The new Redmi 2 will feature a 5.5-inch, 720p IPS display (a bump from the current 4.7-inch version), as well as Android 4.2.2, 1GB of RAM and an octa-core processor (our guess is MediaTek, again) coming in two versions: 1.4GHz and 1.7GHz.

The Xiaomi Redmin 2 will thus arrive with a 5.5-inch 720p HD touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front camera, 1 GB of RAM, microSD card support, and it will run Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean underneath Xiaomi’s MIUI ROM.

A reliable source speculates that the still unknown Snapdragon chipset could be the recently unveiled 410, which is 64-bit and has 4G LTE support. Though this may be true, keep in mind that it hasn’t been confirmed in any way just yet, and may be nothing more than wishful thinking. The original Hongmi did not get LTE support, but with Chinese carriers slowly turning on their 4G networks this is probably going to become a necessity even for low-end phones in the country in the course of this year.

As far as 3G radios are concerned, China Mobile users can pick the TD-SCDMA model, whereas folks elsewhere have the WCDMA option . On the other hand, the current speculation is that Xiaomi will unveil this new Redmi at its "MiFan Festival" -a celebration for the company's anniversary  in early April, so there's still a small chance of seeing an LTE version pop up between now and then.
