Xiaomi Mi 5 and Redmi Note 2 Pro launch set for Nov. 24?

 Twitter

For a while now, there have been talks about the Xiaomi lifting the veil off its much talked about flagship, the Xiaomi Mi 5, and the profusely leaked Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Pro, which are believed to be close to showing up anyway.

Now, the China-based tech firm locked in Nov. 24 as a day for a product launch, prompting media outlets to believe that the highly anticipated smartphones are well on the way. A teaser for the invite has been shared, with "Grand Finale" in Chinese written on it.

My Drivers says that the teaser also states that the launch will take place at the Beijing National Convention Centre but it made no mention as to what will be unveiled during the event. There were no hints about a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Pro or the Xiaomi Mi 5.

Though just recently the former was certified by Chinese certification agency TENAA. When a device gets certified, it is understood that it is very close to being unveiled to the public. This is why it is highly likely that the Redmi Note 2 Pro could be the star of the show on Nov. 24.

In the past few months, rumor mills have been chewing up info on the device, revealing that it comes in a 5.5-inch full HD display and is powered by a Mediatek Helio X10 processor. It has 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage space with Android 5.0 Lollipop in the background.

It has a 13-MP shooter on the back and a 5-MP camera on the back with 3,060-mAh battery keeping the lights on. The device boasts a fingerprint scanner and is dressed in metal. If the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Pro won't be showing up, the Xiaomi Mi 5 might.

The said device is the long-awaited and long overdue Xiaomi Mi 4 follow-up and Xiaomi flagship, which is said to house a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor that will surely make it one of the most powerful devices in the field when it becomes available.
