And that is exactly what the TENAA certification reveals. Since the Note 2 has three versions at 100 Yuan intervals, it wouldn’t be insane to assume the Pro model will be 100 Yuan more than the Prime version, putting it at 1,099 Yuan ($172). On the backside of the device, under the rear camera, there is the LED flash and a fingerprint scanner.

The MediaTek MT6795 Helio X10 SoC is under the hood, carrying an octa-core 2.0GHz CPU. Powering the Redmi Note 2 Pro is a 3060mAh battery. Due to the similarity in specs between the two Redmi models, the extended price of the Redmi Note 2 Pro comes from the fingerprint sensor and the metallic build.
