The Redmi 6 Pro will come in five colours – Rose Gold, Sand Gold, Lake Blue, Black and Flame Red. As we already know, it uses a notch which many smartphone enthusiasts are still yet to understand because it also comes with a pretty thick chin. Although it is worthy of note that the notch can be hidden. Now, we have a complete 360-degree view of what this smartphone looks like.

The Redmi 6 Pro has a 4000 mAh in-built large-capacity lithium battery. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 eight-core processor which integrates a built-in AI voice assistant. Furthermore, this device can take two nano sim cards and one SDcard slot simultaneously. The bottom fuselage hosts a micro USB interface instead of the USB Type C interface, which may be due to cost control. It is worthy of note that the Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro has a 3.5 mm headphone jack on the top fuselage as well as an infrared module and noise reduction mic on the other side. This smartphone will run MIUI 9 out-of-the-box but it can be upgraded to the latest MIUI 10 through an OTA update.
Other accessories in the box include a USB cable, charger, and a water-resistant pouch. This phone is not a flagship smartphone, but the company promises that it is a high-performing alternative to flagship devices. Perhaps the notch is put there to make it feel like a flagship device since most current flagship smartphones use a notch design. The Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro will be formally released on June 25th. As for its pricing, this smartphone should have a 1,000 Yuan ($154) starting price which is not bad. See more images below
