Xiaomi Mi 6 release date pegged for April 16, Specs and price are out

Lately, Xiaomi has been pretty busy with the launch of its Surge S1 processor, and Mi 5C and Redmi 4X smartphones. Still, the company is in the headlines for the launch of its upcoming flagship phone - Mi 6.

Now, it appears like we have a date for the Mi 6 launch from an undisclosed source. The source has revealed that the Xiaomi flagship could be released on April 16 and will be the first Chinese phone to sport the latest Snapdragon 835 SoC.

Besides the presence of the Snapdragon 835 processor, the Xiaomi will not under-clock the SoC, which is great news. The Xiaomi fans are well aware of the fact that the company releases one flagship variant featuring an under-clocked processor. So, this is definitely great news for the Mi fans.
