The latest rumor out of the mill is the possibility of
the launch of the Xiaomi Mi6 Lite, an affordable version of the Mi6.
The Xiaomi Mi6 Lite is reported to be sporting the
Qualcomm Snapdragon 660, an octa core processor with 4 cores of Cortex A73
clocked at 2.2GHz and 4 cores of Cortex A53 clocked at 1.9 GHz. There might be
support for 2-channel LPDDR4X RAM working at 1866MHz, UFS 2.1 storage and Quick
Charge 4.0 along with X10 LTE connectivity. The 660 might use Samsung’s 14nm
LPP process, meaning that the processor will be big on power efficiency and
heat control.
Except the
chipset, there have been no leaks or news of the Mi6 Lite yet. The Mi6 Lite
might be a good option for folks who do not want to spend more than 2,000 Yuan
on their smartphone.
