Xiaomi Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A have joined the Chinese smartphone portfolio today. This time these are models from the lowest price range. Their very low prices will probably make both models even more popular.
Xiaomi Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A were shown today in China, where sales will soon start. It is scheduled for June 15th. Of course, over time the new smartphones will also be sent to Europe, although this will probably not happen sooner than in about two months, which is something to take into account. Meanwhile, let’s take a look at the new, cheap Chinese brand phones and see what they have to offer.
Xiaomi Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A are quite similar smartphones, but there are some differences between them. Both have 5.45″ screens with HD+ resolution and 3000 mAh batteries. On board, there are also 5 Mpx webcams for self with AI Beauty. The telephones are encapsulated in plastic enclosures that resemble metal to the touch. Both models work under the control of Android 8.1 Oreo with MIUI 9.
The Xiaomi Redmi 6 has a dual camera with 12 Mpix and 5 Mpix sensors. The camera supports portrait mode. The 6A model uses a weaker 13Mpix camera with one lens. The cheaper phone also does not have a fingerprint reader, which in Redmi 6 is placed on the back.
Xiaomi Redmi 6 has an eight-core MediaTek Helio P22 processor and will be available as an option with 3 or 4 GB of RAM. There are also two options for data space (32 or 64 GB). Of course, there is also a microSD card reader. The Xiaomi Redmi 6A uses a simpler, 4-core MediaTek Helio A22 processor and only 2GB of RAM. Data space is reduced to 16GB.
