An improved version of the most popular low-cost smartphone in 2015, Xiaomi Redmi 2 differs from its counterpart in an increased amount of RAM (2 GB instead of 1 GB), as well as a 32 GB drive instead of 16 GB.
Performance
In terms of components, the model with the Enhanced Edition prefix completely copies the junior representative of the Chinese company Xiaomi. The heart of the smartphone is a 4-core processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 (1.2 GHz), which successfully turns over the MIUI 6 shell, rolled over Android 4.4.4 KitKat OS. The smoothness of the interface when scrolling through the menu or calling running programs from the background can be envied even by significantly more advanced models. Games and heavy applications hardware allows you to run at medium graphics settings.
Colour reproduction
The 4.7-inch diagonal of the screen turned out to be one of the most convenient for one-handed control. We add here the excellent viewing angles of the IPS matrix, as well as natural colour reproduction. The correct colours are also obtained in photographs from the main camera, which has an 8-megapixel resolution. However in poor lighting conditions, it does not provide the proper result, but this is the misfortune of all low-cost smartphones. The 2-megapixel front camera is only suitable for Skype communication.
Quality build
The assembly of the device is of high quality. Of the shortcomings, only the creaking of the back cover is noted. it is removable, which opens up access to memory expansion via microSD cards or to a replacement battery with a capacity of 2200 mAh. The charge of the latter is usually enough for 1-1.5 days of full-fledged operation of the gadget. Another "fly in the ointment" can be called the heating of the case in the area of the chamber during prolonged intensive loads.
Audio component
The phone has an abundance of sound profiles for different types of headphones, through which it is able to reproduce clear and high-quality sound. And the equalizer with preset music playback modes will help to adjust the sound to your ear.
"Delicious" price tag
Announced in 2016, the heir to the smartphone in the face of Xiaomi Redmi 3 did not put an end to the second generation, but only made it an even more attractive option for purchase, which is facilitated by a very “tasty” price tag.
