Samsung with its Galaxy S series in recent editions has imposed that rule of launching two different variants depending on where they are going to be commercialized. One plays with its own Exynos chip and the other in other regions with Qualcomm's high-end SoCs, last year precisely with the Snapdragon 820. A way of imposing its own chips, as well as allowing to know which one is better for the battery or for overall device performance.
Xiaomi seems to be picking up the baton with its new Xiaomi Mi 6, which replaces the Xiaomi Mi 5 that became one of the best smartphones that arrived last year. This time it will continue to play with the same tactic of providing a series of different variants that will try to find different audience targets and thus capture what they expect from a great smartphone. It is a Weibo user, the one who also shared the images of the Mi 6, the one who shares that information about the variants, including with different chips to the Galaxy.
The first of them will be the Helio X30 and will cost close to $ 290, while the second device will have a Snapdragon 835 and its price will go up to $ 360. The third option would have the latest Qualcomm chip, as well as a curved dual-edge screen that would have a market price of $ 434.
The Xiami Mi 6 would have its place to be presented at the MWC in Barcelona for next month and supposedly it will be Hugo Barra who will illustrate the virtues and benefits of the first of the flagships of the Chinese manufacturer. An exGoogler who knows very well how to deal with the stage to make presentations that he would already like to make in the same way to other brands when announcing his Android mobile devices.
