The Xiaomi Mi Note Pro is a smartphone with similar features to Apple's iPhone 6 Plus and Samsung's Galaxy S6, but not everyone will be able to get their hands on one, according to CNET.

The Xiaomi Mi Note Pro is the successor to the Mi Note, which challenged the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and Apple iPhone 6 Plus. The Mi Note Pro looks just the same on the outside as the Mi Note, but it comes with many much-appreciated new features.

The screen on the Mi Note Pro will be upgraded to 2K. The 5.7-inch screen now has a resolution of 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, up from the full-HD screen the Mi Note has. The screen also takes advantage of Xiaomi's Sunlight Display technology, which makes the screen much more visible when it is used outdoors. 

Designed to be a premium smartphone, the Mi Note Pro ditches all the plastic that Xiaomi uses on its lower-end devices and uses only aluminum and glass. This is the same build that the Mi Note uses, but it comes in one additional color, gold. The Mi Note Pro is slightly thinner than the iPhone 6 Plus. Additionally, the Mi Note Pro's camera does not protrude from the device like it does on the iPhone 6 Plus.

Similar to the screen on the Galaxy S6 Edge, the Mi Note Pro has a curved display on both the front and back of the device. 

Stepping up to the Snapdragon 810 processor, the Mi Note Pro now has an octa-core processor that runs at 2 GHz. This is the same processor found in the HTC One M9 and the LG G Flex 2.

The Mi Note Pro will come with 4 GB of RAM and a roomy 64 GB of internal storage. Xiaomi decided to ditch the small 16 GB models for the Pro. There is no microSD slot, but 64 GB of storage should be plenty for most users.

A big battery will also be featured for the Mi Note Pro. The 3,090 mAh battery should last for a while, and when the battery gets low, it charges rather quickly thanks to fast charging capabilities.

According to GSM Arena, the Mi Note Pro features a 13 megapixel (MP) camera with built in optical image stabilization.

The Mi Note Pro is currently available in China, costing about $483. Before it can make it to the U.S., a third-party retailer will have to offer it to the public.
