With the onset of the new year, the world of smartphones is looking forward to the launch of Xiaomi Mi6, the next flagship launch in the series of Mi phones.

The Mi 5 received a lot of positive feedback when it launched last year, so we can expect that the Mi6 is going to be even better than its predecessor.
