Xiaomi Mi Note vs Samsung Galaxy S5 vs Apple iPhone 6: specs comparison
Enter the Xiaomi Mi Note, the all-new flagship device of one of the largest smartphone makers in the world right now. It, alongside its bigger and more spec'd brother, the Mi Note Pro, is by no means sub-par to most of the higher-tier phones available right now, but what made us the biggest impression is the slightly higher price tag that Xiaomi asks for its new crop of devices. But we digress.
Let's grab some pop corn and tune in for the specs battle!
