Xiaomi adds the flagship Mi 6 and the recently launched Mi Max 2 to the phones
available in the Eurasian country.
The Xiaomi Mi 6 is a dual camera flagship powered by
the Snapdragon 853. It has a 5.15-inch full HD display, 6GB of RAM and 128GB of
storage. Xiaomi has settled for a dual rear camera configuration akin to that
of the iPhone 7 Plus.
The main sensor is a 12MP 1.25μm wide-angle sensor
with a f/1.8 aperture, 4-axis OIS and 6P lens and the second sensor is another
12MP 1.0μm telephoto lens with a f/2.6 aperture, PDAF and a focus range of 52mm
which lets you take portrait mode images. For the selfie camera, Xiaomi has put
an 8MP camera that records 1080p videos at 30fps. The Mi 6 has a 3350 mAh
battery with support for Quick Charge 3.0.
Those who plan to get it should remember that the Mi
6 doesn’t have an audio jack but works with USB Type-C headphones. The device
is also splash resistant. The Mi 6 will be available for purchase on the 6th of
July at 11:00 AM Moscow time for 29,990 Rubles. You can head to the official Mi
Russia site and register to get notified.
The Mi Max 2 is for those who enjoy the extra screen
estate of a tablet but still want a phone. The 6.44-inch 1080p display should
more than suffice for any video watching or media consumption you’re into.
There is a Snapdragon 625 paired with 4GB of RAM and
64GB of storage. You shouldn’t worry about battery life as the combination of
the 5300 mAh non-removable battery and the power-efficient SD625 should get you
through a whole day at most.
The Mi Max 2 also packs an impressive Sony IMX386
sensor on the rear and a 5MP front facing camera. There is 9V/2A fast charging
to help refill the large battery as fast as possible. The Mi Max 2 will sell
for 19,9990 Rubles.
