Chinese manufacturing giant Xiaomi is not relenting in its efforts to capture different sectors of the smartphone market. Recently, the company released the flagship Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S, Xiaomi Redmi S2 and Xiaomi Mi 6X (Pink Version), the last two are mid-range and easily affordable devices. Now, a new Xiaomi smartphone with the codename “Xiaomi E6” just arrived at Geekbench.
Gizchina News of the week
This is obviously a budget smartphone as it is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor clocking 2GHz coupled with 3GB of RAM and the internal memory should not be less than 32GB. This smartphone runs on Android 8.1 which is usually the expectation of a new smartphone. As per its Geekbench performance, this device hit 841 on single-core and 4259 on the multi-core result. Basically, this device’s scores is similar to that of the Xiaomi Mi 5X.
The identity of this smartphone is not entirely known but looking at the configuration, it will probably be in the Redmi series and should not cost more than $200.
Why do they keep releasing their phones with the said processor? My Mi 4C is still very buttery smooth because of the 808, so I’d rather they use an older premium processor than the 625.
