It appeared without any warning on the well-known benchmark site GFXBench and it really did make you feel a little scared. We are talking about Xiaomi Mi 6X, a "light" variant of the latest Xiaomi flagship which, however, would have really good "light" poco! And according to what is reported by the technical sheet that emerged on GFXBench, Xiaomi Mi 6X, defined "Jason", it could fit the processor itself that left the fans in the lice waiting for We are MAX 2!
Xiaomi has not announced anything about it but, if the rumors were confirmed, there would really be "lick their chops" ... for those who have them!
Xiaomi Jason: A Mi 6 version of the mid-range?
Initially the same Lei Jun had drastically denied the existence of a "reduced" version of Mi 6, but the fact that he did Xiaomi Mi MAX 2 has been presented with it Snapdragon 625 leaves room for imagination and the idea of a Mi 6X with Snapdragon 660 would not be so unhealthy!
Let's think about the fact that OPPO is about to launch its R11 this week and that the new device of the fierce rival of Xiaomi should mount the very disputed SoC Qualcomm. Well, Xiaomi would have every interest in launching a top version on the mid-range market! So why not take advantage of the Qualcomm processor that would guarantee to My 6X good performance without affecting fuel consumption?
So let's not say that Xiaomi Mi 6X will be a "light" version of the flagship My 6, but we can consider it a version of itself with Snapdragon 660 processor, a front camera from 4 Megapixel and a back from 12 Megapixel. Exactly like the Xiaomi Mi 6, then also the "Jason" Xiaomi should be equipped with a RAM memory from 6 GB and an internal storage of 64 GB.
Among the many rumors there would also be the possibility that Xiaomi Jason can be presented together with the second processor of the Chinese home, but of course we have neither certainties nor no unofficial sources.
Trying to imagine the price, some sources speak of a figure around 1999 yuan (about 261 euro) but it would seem very unlikely considering and considering the price of the launch of the Mi MAX 2. Xiaomi could ever launch a device at the exact same price as the last born ?!
