China: Xiaomi Mi Max 2 phablet is all set to launch at an event in China on Thursday; the event is scheduled to start at 2pm CST (11:30am IST). The upcoming Mi Max 2 is the successor the Xiaomi Mi Max that was launched last year with a massive 6.44-inch display. The Chinese brand last year claimed that it shipped 1.5 million units of the original Mi Max in the two months since its launch in China, so the prospects for the Xiaomi Mi Max 2 are not too dim. Leaks have already given us a fair idea of what to expect from the new phablet.
