Xiaomi are aiming to release a new flagship device
on April 11th, and although the company has said so, it does look really likely
that the launch will be all about the Xiaomi Mi6.
Over the past few months there have been plenty of
reports stating that the Xiaomi Mi6 will closely resemble the Xiaomi Mi5 range
only with a dual camera feature rather than the Mi5’s single camera.
These reports have been backed up with various
renders and even the odd leak here an there, but this pink Xiaomi Mi6 does look
the most compelling to date! The photos show a metallic pink phone with
familiar oval fingerprint scanner on the chin, alloy body dual LED flash to
match the dual rear cameras.
Photos of the base also show where the speaker,
microphone and Type C USB are located meaning that either the 3.5mm headphone
jack is located at the top of the phone or has been removed completely.
So is this the Xiaomi Mi6? Well it could well be but
if it is it is likely the more affordable version of the new Xiaomi flagship as
the top of the range model is meant to feature a ceramic body. This also begs
the question if this Mi6 will have a Mediatek, Qualcomm or even Surge
processor.
