Xiaomi Mi 6X officially launched

Xiaomi has officially announced its newest Mi phone called the 6X, and it features dual rear cameras with AI technology and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip.

The Chinese company touts the thin, metal-clad phone to deliver exceptional portrait photos as their cameras are supported by its own AI software which detects one of 12 pre-set scenes to enable the camera to distinguish the subject (including hair accessories and hand gestures) from its background.

Following the company’s take on the phone series last year, the Mi 6X may possibly arrive in the global market as the next-generation device to succeed the Mi A1 with a pure Android One mobile operating system in tow instead of the MIUI it will ship within its homeland.
