6GB + 128GB Mi Note 2: CN¥3,299 (R6,747)
6GB + 128GB Mi Note 2 (Global): CN¥3,499 (R7,156)

So what's the difference between these 2?

The price?

So what's the difference between these 2?

Probably the bands they use and of course the global version would have the global rom installed so GAPPS will work.

It would be fun to take that on an airplane and whip it out just after takeoff

So what's the difference between these 2?

Global: Customized ROM without Chinese bloatware + more LTE bands

Gapps can be installed on the Chinese rom aswell.

Well... besides the bands, can probably just download and install the global rom on the cheaper version.

I am sure you can, but will the phone work on your network of choice. It may also be designed with the Chinese network carriers only

Bye bye samsung

Also noticed, it still has an HD screen? Why not go quad HD on that size screen.
