The smartphone with considerable specs has a 5.7-inch 1080 x 1920 display, a 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor and 3GB of RAM.

It also has a 13MP camera with optical image stabilisation and a dual-LED flash and on the front a 4MP snapper with large 2-micron pixels the equivalent of HTC’s UltraPixels.

Rounding out the specs there’s a 3000mAh battery and 16 or 64GB of storage. Plus as a nice bonus it supports hi-fidelity 24-bit/192 kHz lossless audio.

Those are some solid specs, they’re no better than current flagships but then the phone is retailing for just 2,299 RMB (around £243 / $371 / AU$451).

But if that doesn’t impress you then how about the Mi Note Pro. This one is due to launch by the end of March (though again only in China for now) and has a 5.7-inch 1440 x 2560 display, a 64-bit octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage, plus the same camera and audio features as the standard Mi Note and costs 2,799 RMB (roughly £297 / $452 / AU$554), so it’s still fairly affordable.

Both versions also look the part of a flagship with curved glass panels on the front and back, a 3mm bezel and a metal frame.
