All these phones were launched in China a couple of months back and so, we already know everything about these. Still, here’s all about the specifications, pricing and the availability of the all-new Redmi 6 series in India.

XIAOMI REDMI 6A

It is the cheapest of the three and the successor of last year’s much popular Redmi 5A. In every aspect, it is an all-around upgrade from the Redmi 5A, whether we talk about the processor or the display or the build. There is an 18:9 display but the phone has huge bezels all around. There is a single rear camera, and just like the Redmi 5A, the Redmi 6A doesn’t have a fingerprint scanner.

 

The specifications are pretty interesting. Here is a quick overview of the specifications since we have already talked about them in detail in our previous article

  • 2GB RAM + 32GB ROM – Rs 6,999 (Introductory price for two months)

XIAOMI REDMI 6

The Xiaomi Redmi 6 is the successor to the last year’s Redmi 5 that had some great specifications for the price at which it was launched. The design of the Redmi 6 is similar to the Redmi 6A’s design, except for some changes like a dual rear camera setup & addition of the fingerprint scanner.

The display and the battery size also remains the same as Redmi 6A and the only difference is the chipset, cameras and the storage. Here’s is a quick overview of the Xiaomi Redmi 6 specifications –

  • 5.45-inch HD+ 18:9 display (1440×720 pixels)
  • 12nm 2.0GHz Octa-Core Helio P22

XIAOMI REDMI 6 PRO

The Redmi 6 Pro is just the Mi A2 Lite with MIUI. All the specifications remain the same as the Mi A2 Lite, and this is the reason why Xiaomi didn’t bring Mi A2 Lite in India since the launch of Redmi 6 Pro was already planned. The phone competes not only with the phones like Realme 1 but also with Xiaomi’s own devices like the Redmi Note 5 and the Redmi Y2. And this is not the first time we see this, right?

  • 5.84-inch Full-HD+ 19:9 display with a notch (2280 x 1080 Pixels)
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 Processor
