If what Zang Zhiyuan said is correct, the new Xiaomi Mi Note and even the Xiaomi Note Pro will support dual SIM and all 19 frequencies available in China. Those are owned by China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom. On the other hand, they include 2G, 3G, and 4G networks such as GSM (Band 2 /. 3/5/8), TD-SCDMA (Band 34/39), TD-LTE (Band 38/39/40/41), WCDMA (Band 1/2/5/8), FDD-LTE (Band 1 / 3/7) and CDMA1X & EVDO (Band BC0 and BC1). Furthermore, there will be two editions of the new Xiaomi Mi Note known as a standard and a high-end version which are priced at 2,299 Yuan (RM1,396) and 2,999 Yuan (RM1,812), respectively.

Apart from this good news, we have an even better one for Xiaomi phone consumers. On Xiaomi’s official website, there is an announcement saying that Xiaomi Mi Note price is cut down to 1,999 Yuan ($322 or RM1,215) for the popular Xiaomi Mi Note 16GB version and the special Xiaomi Ni Note Bamboo Edition.

Though, there is one thing you should note is that you will need a voucher to purchase a Mi Note for 300 Yuan less. Once you have the voucher, you will be able to redeem it from 6-13 July, 2015. Yet, many people predict that Xiaomi company will also keep the new price afterwards.

Xiaomi Mi Note Price Cut

We think that the price cut of Xiaomi Mi Note at the moment is for the release of the new Xiaomi Mi Note version used for all network support. Before wrapping up, let’s take a look at the following key features of Xiaomi Mi Note:

Processor: Snapdragon 801 2.5 GHz
Display: 5.7-inch 1920 x 1080 (~386 ppi)
Dimensions: 155.1 x 77.6 x 7mm
RAM: 3GB
ROM: 16/64GB
Camera: 13MP and 4MP
Battery: 3,000mAh

In conclusion, we are glad that Xiaomi Mi Note has been cut down in price in order to get closer to the consumers. Besides, the version with full network support of Mi Note will go on sale in the near future. Let’s wait for the Xiaomi Mi Note Malaysia coming with RM1,215!

UPDATED NEWS:

As we have seen the fingerprint scanner in the leaked photos of OPO 2, now OnePlus team announces that OnePlus 2 will feature the most advanced fingerprint scanner in the world.

The latest and the most advanced FC the mentioned is said to be even faster than Apple’s TouchID. Just one quick tap will lead phone users right to the home screen and they can program up to 5 fingers. On the other hand, Qualcomm has introduced Sense ID with 3D fingerprint tech to be built on the latest Snapdragon 810 and SD425 processors. So, we cannot ignore the possibility that OnePlus 2 will use the Sense ID for its fingerprint scanner. If that’s the case, will it make OPO 2 the first smartphone to have such tech? Let’s find out on July 27, 2015!

Qualcomm Sense ID:

—————————-

Two first real pictures of OnePlus Two have been seen on the internet. If this is authentic, its design is somehow similar to the predecessor OnePlus One and OPO 2 will sport a fingerprint scanner below the rear camera. Anyhow, that’s also what we have predicted, right?!

—————————-

Another leaked image of OPO 2 has been spotted, but this time, it’s leaked in a sketch. Of course, it is a picture edited with sketch-effect filter maybe in order to make the phone still a mystery but give some hints of its design at the same time.

So, we can see that it’s kind of different from what we saw in the company’s photography campaign. It is predicted to boast a screen from 5.5″ to 5.7″ and a thickness from 5mm to 6mm. If we base on the current model OnePlus One with 5.5-inch FHD display, we can imagine how large the OPO 2 can be. Anyhow, there’s no official words made for the phone’s screen size as well as resolution.

One more important thing is that OnePlus team has finally confirmed OnePlus Two launch date to be on July 27, 2015 at 7 P.M. PT (10 P.M. ET) and people can watch the event in virtual reality. In other words, the viewers are enabled to “look around as [they] check out the phone in a new way and maybe even find a few hidden Easter eggs.”

“For the OnePlus 2 launch, we didn’t want that barrier between us and you; we want to invite you into our world, because you’re a major part of it. That is why we will be unveiling the OnePlus 2 to the world completely in VR. Starting July 27 at 7:00pm PT, everyone around the world can stream our launch.” 

To recap, we now know when the OPO 2 will be launched and how it may look like. Let’s wait until July 27 to see the machine in reality!

Tomorrow, June 30, 2015, Meizu MX5 will be launched, according to what Meizu company has planned for their flagship device. And lately, some Meizu MX5 leaked images are spread on the internet, showing all aspects of the machine in terms of design. Let’s have a look at them:

Those images have confirmed that MX5 will sport a fingerprint sensor built in the oval home button one more time. MX5 will be a phablet of 5.5-inch FHD display with a pixel density of 401ppi. Other Meizu MX5 specs will be summarized in the following table:

These days, friendly-budget smartphones are the priority when it comes to buying a new device. At Price Pony, we have introduced some mobiles with nice offers compared to their prices. And today, we would like to take a look at another phone like that with the name “Acer Liquid Jade“.

Acer Liquid Jade: Good smartphone – Good price tag

It is a good device from Acer, featuring a 5-inch IPS ‘Zero Air Gap’ Display with 1280 x 720 resolution. Targeted to the budget phone market, the Acer Liquid Jade specs pack an above-average combination together with a good looking appearance. However, for those who look for a huge battery to survive many days, the 2,100mAh Liquid Jade battery might be a minus. This will require extra support to keep the phone alive longer, like a 10,000+ mAh power bank or so.

Acer Liquid Jade Specs:

On the other hand, this handy smartphone is perfect for phone users who want a convenient mobile to grab with and work everywhere and anywhere. Looking at the picture, we can see that this is an elegant handset!

Acer Liquid Jade Price:

The Acer Liquid Jade price in Malaysia is set around RM679 for 1GB RAM version and RM689 for 2GB.

With a budget under RM750, you can take this guy into consideration. Also, Acer is well-known company with popular products gaining trust from all over the world. Share with us if you have any previous experience with the company and/or your concern about this Liquid Jade device!

We are very close to June 30, 2015! So, what will be going in on that day?

Both Huawei and Meizu are going to officially launch their new flagship phones: Huawei Honor 7 and Meizu MX5. We are really looking forward to see them in person though there are a lot of rumors as well as renders spreading these days.

To quickly recap on those strong competitors, let’s look at the new Honor and Meizu in terms of specs and design:

Huawei Honor 7 Specs:

The device is said to own a 5-inch Full HD screen paired with 3GB RAM and 16GB of storage. Huawei’s own Kirin 935 processor and 3,280mAh battery will be in charge to power the whole machine. As for the camera, there will be a 13-megapixel rear cam with autofocus and optical image stabilization. Besides, Huawei Honor 7 will be running Emotion UI 3.1 on top of Android 5.0 Lollipop. Still, there are some more features that have not been unveiled.

Meizu MX5 Specs:

According to recent leaks, Meizu MX5 is going to have a full alloy cover, boasting a 5.5-inch 1080p display, which will write its name in the list of the best phablets in 2015. Besides, as we have mentioned in the previous posts, the new handset will own a 3,150mAh battery, updated Turbo version of the 2.3Ghz Mediatek MT6795T octa-core processor and a 20MP primary camera. The whole phone will run on FlymeOS 4.5 on top of Android Lollipop. Also, there could be space for a 128GB SD card and a fingerprint scanner to be on board.

But, lately, Xiaomi‘ President, Mr. Lin Bin, has announced that they will also have something special for June 30, 2015. What a day!

Previously, people expected that Xiaomi would release a new Xiaomi Mi Note Pro variant before 30 June. However, through the picture of Mr. Lin Bin on his Weibo, he, wearing a Brazilian soccer uniform, claims that Xiaomi will bring a surprise for everyone on June 30.

So, this is the first time we have heard about the plan. So, mysterious! Will it be related to Brazil? Or will it be the variant of Xiaomi Mi Note Pro with Brazilian style?

All the questions will be answered on June 30, 2015. Can’t wait!

The LG G4 has been spotted in SIRIM’s database recently, possibly signalling its arrival on the Malaysian mobile market this year.

If this comes true, you will not have to purchase this machine through any other unofficial channels and can get official warranties by LG Malaysia.

LG G4 Malaysia Specs:

LG G4 owns a 5.5″ Quad HD display, enhanced with brightness and contrast ratio with its Advanced In-Cell Touch tech. LG did not use Snapdragon 810 for the G4, maybe because they thought it could cause overheating issue for the phone like other SN810 devices. Instead of 810, the manufacturer uses a Hexa Core Snapdragon 808 processor paired with 3GB RAM to power LG G4. Besides, there is 32GB of internal storage which can be expanded via a microSD card.

In terms of taking photos, it has a super cool combo of a 16MP f/1.8 rear cam with Optical Image Stabilisation and a higher resolution 8MP f/2.0 front shooter. We bet that selfie lovers would be totally satisfied with this feature. The whole handset is run by a 3,000mAh removable battery supporting fast charging and wireless charging and Android 5.1 Lollipop with LG’s UX 4.0 interface.

LG G4 Malaysia Price:

In the U.S., the phone is offered at $630, so we think that LG G4 price in Malaysia can be set around RM2,300. That is pretty much hefty but since there is no official announcement from the LG Malaysia, so we should wait for the final decision.

What would you say for LG G4 specs and price? Anyway, welcome to Malaysia, LG G4!
