Chinese gadget sites are speculating that the
next generation Xiaomi smartphone, the
M2, will sport more than just a faster
CPU and better
camera, and will actually be a dual boot smartphone!
The latest rumors suggest that the new
Xiaomi M2 smartphone will ship with both Xiaomi's own
MIUI V4 which is based on
Android Ice-cream Sandwich and also the latest version of
Windows Mobile, Windows 8!
The same reports go on to suggest that this dual boot Xiaomi could well retail for as little as 1999 Yuan $314, which is the current price of the
Android only Xiaomi
M1.
Past reports have gone as far as to claim the
next generation Xiaomi will boast a 2.5Ghz CPU,
2GB RAM and a 12 mega-pixel camera, however we imagine with that specification the price will be somewhat higher!
If the idea of a Windows based Xiaomi tickles your fancy take a look at this
