Xiaomi Mi6 vs. Xiaomi Mi5s
Mi6 is the successor of last year's autumn flagship Xiaomi Mi5s .Let's consider, in what differences between them. But first, the technical characteristics of the Mi5s 64Gb: IPS LCD screen 5.15 inches with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, Android 6.0 operating system, 64 GB permanent and 3 GB RAM, support for two SIMs.4-core processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 821.

Xiaomi Mi5s at one time caused some bewilderment among fans of Xiaomi, tk.innovations were not so much, and in some ways the Mi5s took a step backwards compared to the Mi5, for example, with a newer model, the camera became worse. However, in the case of Mi6, it is obvious that Xiaomi did a lot of work on the errors, becausethe new flagship differs from the Mi5s very much: the new Android is not particularly surprising, but the updated processor + twofold increase in RAM gave an incredible performance boost and, as already mentioned, brought the Mi6 into the top three of the most powerful smartphones in the world today. The battery also became more powerful, albeit not much. The chambers underwent radical changes. The main became double and finally began to shoot at the level of camera phones, the front also significantly added in quality( for example, megapixels became twice as large).Therefore, there is no doubt that now it is necessary to buy Xiaomi Mi6, and not clearly unsuccessful Mi5s.
