The AnTuTu screenshot that has been shared on the video confirms some of the key specs of the Redmi Note 6 Pro.

A leakster from China has claimed that the Redmi Note 6 that will be unleashed along with the Note 6 Pro will be featuring a smaller notch which suggest hat it could be equipped with a single front-facing camera. Also, it may feature Snapdragon 660 SoC.

As of this writing, there is no information available on the pricing and launch date of the Redmi Note 6 and Redmi Note 6 Pro.

It has been reported that Xiaomi is working on the Redmi Note 6, a successor to the Redmi Note 5. The phone is supposed to be announced later this year and will join the already released Redmi 6A, Redmi 6, and Redmi 6 Pro. Ahead of the release, a live photo of the phone’s display assembly has leaked online.

The image source is a store on the online shopping site, AliExpress. The images uploaded show the screen has a small notch at the top, about the same size as that of the Redmi 6 Pro. The notch has three cut-outs for the sensor, earpiece, and front-facing camera.

The item description says the screen is 6.18” in size and has a resolution of 1080 x 2246. The display is also the LCD type which shouldn’t be a surprise since the Redmi series are supposed to be affordable. However, the price of the screen isn’t that cheap as the seller has slapped a $60 (excluding shipping) price tag on it. However, an on-going promotion will let you pick it up for $56.40.

While doing some digging around on the store, we stumbled upon the display of another unreleased phone – the Redmi 6 Plus. Yes, it appears there is going to be a Redmi 6 Plus and its screen is also listed for sale by the same seller. This listing is the first time we are hearing about the device.

According to the item description, the Redmi 6 Plus’ screen is 5.99-inches with a 1080 x 2160 resolution just like that of the Redmi 5 Plus (Redmi Note 5 in India) but the screen size is where the similarities end. The photo of the display assembly provided by the seller shows it has a notch and it is much bigger than that of the Redmi Note 6. It also has five cut-outs in total.

Two of the cut-outs seem to be for cameras which means it will pack dual front-facing cameras, one is for the speaker, another for the sensors and the last one is most likely for an LED flash. The Redmi 5 Plus has a single front-facing camera and a LED flash, so this is definitely a big upgrade if this listing is genuine. The price for the screen is $52 but it can be purchased for $48.88 for a limited time.

The listings may be genuine but the only errors we have spotted are the resolutions of the two displays. At least we are quite sure the Redmi 6 Plus can’t have that resolution with that notch.

Hopefully, more information about both devices will surface in the coming weeks.

In the previous month, the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) had certified several existing and unannounced smartphones from Xiaomi. The smartphones approved by EEC are expected to debut in Europe in future. Few more Xiaomi handsets were also certified yesterday by the EEC.

Smartphones such as Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite, Mi 8, Mi 8 Explorer Edition, Mi 8 SE, Mi 8 Pro, Redmi 6, Redmi 6 Pro, Redmi 6A, Redmi 6S and Redmi 6X were certified by the EEC yesterday. As it can be seen, some of these smartphones have already launched in China, but Mi A2 Lite, Mi 8 Pro, Redmi 6S and 6X are yet to go official. EEC certificate was issued to these smartphones on June 14, 2018 and it is valid until January 2027.

The Mi A2 Lite with a model number of M1805D15SG was spotted at the Singapore’s Communications Authority in the previous month. Apart from this, there is no other information available on this smartphone.

Among the recently introduced Redmi 6 series, the Redmi 6 Pro features a notched 19:9 display whereas the Redmi 6 and Redmi 6A phones have notch-less 18:9 display. Since the Redmi 6 and 6X are not “Pro” models, there is a possibility that they arrive with full screen design like the Redmi 6 and 6A smartphones.

The Mi 8 Pro was not announced at the launch event of Mi 8, Mi 8 Explorer Edition and Mi 8 SE that was held at the end of May. There is a possibility that the Mi 8 Pro could be nothing but the highest storage variant of the Mi 8 that features 256 GB of storage.

Xiaomi has released a bunch of new devices this year and this is just the fifth month. If you are eager to know what Xiaomi has planned for the next 6 months or more, then this should excite you.

A list of Xiaomi products (released and mostly unreleased) just surfaced online. It was seen on the website of the Eurasian Economic Commission and mentions a bunch of unreleased phones under the Mi and Redmi series. It also includes the already launched Mi MIX 2s and the spanking new Redmi S2.

The Xiaomi Mi 7 is rumored to launch this month but it seems it will bring along a less powerful variant called Mi 7 Lite. There is also a new S-series that includes the Mi S1, Mi S2, Mi S3, Redmi S1, and Redmi S3.

The Mi MIX 2s will also have a successor called the Mi MIX 3s which makes us wonder if there will be no Mi MIX 3. The Redmi series will also be getting some new members.

The list mentions a Redmi A1 and Redmi A2 in addition to successors to the already existing Redmi series. So we should expect the Redmi Note 6, Redmi Note 6A, Redmi Note 6a Prime, Redmi Note 6 Prime, Redmi 6 Plus, and Redmi 6a Plus will replace the current Redmi lineup.
