Redmi 6 Pro
Xiaomi Redmi 6, the successor to the well-received Xiomi Redmi 5 is launched in China by the Chinese tech Giant, Xiaomi. These Xiomi phones are good looking and budget-friendly yet powerful devices. This is the first Redmi series phone to feature a Notch. It’s not even been a month since the launch of Xiaomi Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A, and now Xiaomi is launching Redmi 6 pro. Xiaomi is literally dumping too many devices in very short time which might affect the brand value.
Display
Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro was released on 24th June 2018 and features a 5.84-inch touchscreen display with a resolution of 2280×1080 pixels with 295ppi. It is a 19:9 panel which makes the display trendy and even more amazing to watch.
Notch
Redmi 6 Pro has a notch, the biggest issue of 2018 smartphones. The notch is very small like OnePlus 6’s and holds a front-facing camera and, sensors. To all notch and chin haters, when the notch is hidden and used only for notifications and battery area, the phone looks symmetrical and the free space is utilized. Xiaomi’s very own competitors like Vivo and Oppo are standing out from the competition with unique, innovative yet beautiful design to feature all screen phones without a notch. Xiaomi has to stop coping iPhone and start walking in an innovative path.
Camera
