Xiaomi Mi 6X latest rumors: likely to feature Helio P60 and dual-camera setup

Xiaomi launched its Mi 5X in China last year which was named as A1 in the international market. Its been reported that the smartphone is working on the successor of the Mi 5X dubbed as Mi 6X or you can say Mi A2.

Last week a report claimed that the upcoming Xiaomi Mi 6X will be powered by the Snapdragon 626 processor. However, the fresh report indicates that it could be equipped with the MediaTek's latest Helio P60 Soc. The company has launched this processor during the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2018 in February.

Current, smartphone brands like OPPO and Meizu are using this Soc under the hood of phones like OPPO R15 and OPPO F7. If we will see the TENAA listing it suggests that the Xiaomi 6X will be powered by an octa-core processor clocked at 2.2 GHz. However, the earlier reports have indicated that the smartphone will feature the new Snapdragon 636 SoC.

According to the new rumors the Xiaomi Mi 6X will sport the MediaTek Helio P60 onboard. However, there are no concrete pieces of evidence to support these rumours, so it's better to wait for the official announcement by the company.

On April 9, XDA Developers Editor-in-life Mishaal Rahman has disclosed some of the key features of the cameras of the smartphone. According to his twitter post, he claims that the Mi 6X may feature Sony IMX486 + IMX36 dual-camera setup on the back. In front, the smartphone will house Sony IMX376 camera sensors.

In simple words, the Xiaomi Mi 6X will come with the combination of 12-megapixel + 20-megapixel camera sensors on the rear panel and a 20-megapixel camera on the front.

As far as specifications are concerned, the smartphone is expected to sport a 5.99-inch FHD+ display with an aspect ratio of 18:9 with minimal bezels. According to TENAA listing the Mi 6X will be expected in two variants one with 4GB RAM + 64GB onboard storage memory, and another with 6GB RAM + 128GB internal storage.
