Xiaomi Mi 6 64 GB / 4 GB
 | Outdated Product The flagship smartphone comes from the Middle Kingdom, which can compete with top solutions from A-brands. The design of the device paid attention to every detail, so that its body looks stylish and rich. About 71% of the gadget's front panel area is occupied by a 5.15-inch FullHD display, covered with a rounded 2.5D glass. The powerful “hardware” of Xiaomi Mi-6 64GB is designed to turn the most “heavy” games and applications without a hitch. A vivid confirmation of these words is the advanced Snapdragon 835 processor, which is paired with as many as 6 GB of RAM. The model has not bypassed the dual camera trend: one of the “eyes” of its main module shoots at the focal length familiar to most smartphones (27 mm in 35 mm equivalent), and the second is more suitable for portrait photography (...its focal length is 56 mm). The equipment of the smartphone also includes an infrared port and a fingerprint scanner, and its body has splash protection. |

An easy way to save on purchasing a flagship device is to look at the products of the ambitious Chinese brand Xiaomi. The proof of this statement is the Xiaomi Mi-6 smartphone.
Unique style
The manufacturer's serious approach to its brainchild can be seen in the appearance of the gadget alone. And if from the front it can easily be confused with some other smartphones (for example, Huawei P10 Plus), then the back of the Xiaomi Mi-6 is made in its own unique style. The entire back of the model is covered with glass rounded around the perimeter of the body, which is also coated with a high-quality oleophobic coating. The only thing a glass backdrop is afraid of is damage.
Without wires
The smartphone case has acquired splash protection. True, for the sake of it they sacrificed a 3.5 mm headphone jack. As compensation, an adapter from a USB Type-C port to a miniJack is included in the box with the gadget. You can also listen to your favorite tracks via a Bluetooth connection. But the IR port, traditional for Xiaomi smartphones, is present in the device’s arsenal.
Ambiguity
Advanced hardware (high-performance Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip, as much as 6 GB of RAM, powerful Adreno 540 graphics accelerator) and the current version of Android 7.1 OS give very high results in the performance test. But in real conditions, sometimes the interface freezes and some applications work incorrectly, which is associated with a crude version of the proprietary MIUI shell. At the start of sales, it often needs improvement.
Tandem cameras
The smartphone has a 5.15-inch IPS matrix with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. Below the screen is an optical fingerprint scanner, and at the top is an 8-megapixel selfie camera. But more interesting is the combination of two rear cameras with a resolution of 12 MP each. The differences between them lie in the focal length - the 27mm module with 4-axis optical stabilization and a maximum aperture of f/1.8 is designed for shooting everyday scenes, while the 52mm lens with an f/2.6 aperture is more suitable for shooting portraits. And although Xiaomi did not invent anything radically new, it managed to put all the best in one bottle quite well.
