The Xiaomi Mi 6 is now official with a spectacular design and without a 3,5mm jack

Today is the day that the "Chinese Apple" Xiaomi has presented its new flagship and the truth is that we are facing a really spectacular device as far as design is concerned, but it does not fall short in specifications as it was announced in the leaks and rumors of these months. In addition to all this that is very good, Xiaomi chooses the path of Apple, HTC and other companies eliminating the 3,5mm audio jack. In any case, the powerful internal hardware with its Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, 6 GB of RAM and in terms of design, the "Ceramic Edition" ceramic model with a ceramic back and 18-karat gold coating around the sensors in the rear cameras.

The spectacular design of the Xiaomi Mi 6

Xiaomi is clear that the design of the device is the first thing that enters the eyes of the user who wants to buy a smartphone and in this case we can say that their designs have always been spectacular. In this case the new Xiaomi Mi 6 has a steel frame and the curve of the glass similar to the previous model but this time throughout the device which gives it a spectacular naked eye design. On the curved glass in Xiaomi they highlighted that it was difficult for them to manufacture since they have wanted to harden it to resist blows (because it is more exposed with those frames) and it takes 12 days to finish the 40-step process to harden to the optimal state, according to Xiaomi.

Available colors are silver, black, blue and white. In the case of the silver model "Silver Edition" it would not be available from the moment of launch so we were left with three colors in principle. On the other hand, it should be noted that the Ceramic Edition model will be available from the first moment, but it will be somewhat more expensive than the rest.

We left a small gallery of images of this new Xiaomi Mi 6 together with the spectacular ceramic model:

The specifications of the new Mi 6

In this sense we already say that it is a spectacularly powerful device, we have a resistance to splashes but nothing to wet the device. The rest of the most prominent internal hardware specifications are as follows:

  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 64-bit processor, eight cores and Adreno 540 GPU
  • 5,15-inch FHD screen with 600 nit brightness
  • 6GB of RAM LPDDR4X
  • Two versions available of 64GB and 128GB respectively
  • Dual 12MP + 12 MP rear camera and 4-axis stabilizer
  • 3350 mAh battery
On the other hand we see how it has a prominent absence in the part of the device and this is the 3,5mm jack. This, according to Xiaomi, has been a considered and studied decision to maintain a more minimalist design and it will be mandatory to use Bluetooth or USB C port to connect headphones. As for the fingerprint reader, we find it located in the front just below the screen without any further news in this regard, but we do highlight the function Portrait Mode That they have also announced in the presentation and that is obviously similar to the iPhone 7 Plus, obtaining that blur in the back of the image called bokeh. 

Prices and availability

 The new Xiaomi model will be available in stores in China from April 28, once it goes on sale officially, the official prices can be confirmed. At the moment what we have on the table are the approximate prices and they surprise as always ... In the case of the 6GB RAM and 64 GB of internal memory the price is about 340 euros to change, for the model with 6GB RAM and 128 GB of internal memory the price is about 390 euros and for the model 6GB RAM, 128GB of internal memory Ceramic Edition is 410 euros.
They really seem like demolition prices to us, but it must be made clear that they are approximate and that these devices are not officially marketed outside of China, which undoubtedly leaves us outside of any type of guarantee and forces us to purchase through e-commerce or similar. In any case it is really spectacular.
