Xiaomi Mi 6 Review

Score: 76.5 / 100

Xiaomi Mi 6 is a great cellphone launched back in 2017, provisioned with a high-tech Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2.46 gigahertz, a pretty large 5.2-inches screen, and 2 cameras, a 12 mega-pixels back facing camera and an 8 megapixels front camera.

Xiaomi offers this device in three color options: black, blue and white. Even though this phone just has 5.72" long, it's able to fit a a 5.2" display. This device is incredibly slim and good-looking, being just 0.29 inches thick. Xiaomi didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 5.93 oz device. Regarding its design, the Xiaomi Mi 6 is majorly made of Glass and Metal .

This cellphone is powered by a high performance Octa-Core CPU clocking at 2457 MHz, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 MSM8998 chip with a huge 6 GB of RAM memory. A great point of this phone is its big 128 GB internal memory and even though it doesn't have a slot for SD memory cards, it is still enough to store hundreds of apps and even the heaviest games available nowadays without worrying about filling the cellphone.

This phone has a completely amazing 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) 5.2-inches screen, which makes everything look absolutely great.

This cellphone has two cameras, a 12 megapixels back side camera and an 8 megapixels front camera. this phone's back side camera has a maximum 1.8 aperture so it can take great pictures even in low-light environments. It also shoots videos in 4K 3840x2160 at 30 fps, and 1280x720 HD slow-motion videos up to 120 fps.

This phone offers WiFi connectivity (and it can be shared with other devices acting as a modem). This cellphone comes with two Nano SIM cards so it is able to work with two different phone numbers or carriers.

This cellphone features a 3350 mAh big Li - Polymer non-removable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery is non-removable so you can't throw it away and buy a new one when it starts to lose its charge, while with this big battery you will probably buy a new device before that happens.

This phone also features plenty of interesting characteristics as Biometric fingerprint, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Infrared Blaster, Bluetooth and GPS, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

Xiaomi is selling this device for 421 dollars, which is rather expensive for comparing with similar cellphones. This cellphone is probably the right one for you no matter if you you love taking pictures, are looking for a phone majorly for internet broswing and social networks, are looking for a phone for work or need a device to play tons of games. This cellphone is packed with USB Type C cable, Type C to 3.5mm adapter, Warranty, SIM removal tool , Charger and Getting started guide.
