Xiaomi Mi 6 tipped to feature the Sony IMX400 sensor

11 March 2017
Sony's latest imager does wonders inside the Xperia XZ Premium, seems odd for Sony to share it with Xiaomi this soon.

I wish Xiaomi makes a 4.6" phone like Sony Compact series with high end spec.New Sony Compact is such a rip with mid-ranged.
4.6" IPS LCD
3+32GB ufs combo
usb type-c
sony Exmor RS 20.7mpx IOS
should do the trick

                        Look, MANY people who bought Xiaomi devices didn't do if for its CAMERA, they buy it BECAUSE ALL THE FEATURES & HARDWARE IT OFFERS WORTHY FOR EVERY PENNY OF OUR MONEY.

                        Enlighten me, tell me 5 Android phones with the SAME ASKING PRICE as Mi5/5s/5s plus, can u?
                        Once again, a device with GREAT HARDWARE albeit SHITTY software can be fixed, such as installing alternative apps OR flashing ported apps from a brand with good software, BUT a device with SHITTY hardware ALBEIT GREAT software is ALWAYS SHITTY (such as oppo & vivo) & cannot be fixed...

                        U want a phone that comes with GREAT hardware & GREAT software in one pack?
                        MAKE IT URSELF!

                          The thing is, U r too lazy to pimp ur phone, that's why people KEEP complaining & bashing NEW Xiaomi's phone.
                          It's GREAT enough u can get ALL those expensive hardware for cheap, so why don't try searching whether there is app that can make ur phone BETTER if u think the default one was bad?
                          For the SAME ASKING PRICE as Mi5/5s/5s plus, HOW MANY manufacturers offers the same specs?

                          Remember, BAD software can be fixed with a "little" efford, BUT BAD HARDWARE cannot be changed whatever u do!

                            they gona end up like Mi5s. having same camera and even better Chip than google pixel they fall well short behing most of flagship. having said about camera i am using mi5s which features same lense used in google pixel, the image quality is no bette than and mid range camera from a well known company. this is just a another gimick which iam sure many people wont fall for.

                              I think that for some people..... If a new phone is released with a metal body or a metal/glass body.... It looks like an iPhone. That's it

                                      It's amusing to see some kids sharing their wet dreams on storage, RAM options, even telling quite ultimatively (to whom? GSMA?) the price that they are willing to pay. Does that make you hard, guys?

                                        If IMX400 is comming to MI6 .. it would be the time for the MIUI development team to backit up with optimized software to max out the performance of the sensor!
