Xiaomi, dubbed as “China’s Apple,” topped the Chinese smartphone market in 2014 with budget devices. But in recent years the company has dropped to the third place as it has failed to appeal to high-end users.
The Mi Note 2, featuring a curved display screen, is targeting the premium market. The company has poured resources into securing memory chips and organic light-emitting diode panels from global suppliers, including Samsung, the market leader.
