Xiaomi seems to be having a busy year. The company has launched the flagship Xiaomi Mi 6 and recently introduced the Xiaomi Mi Max 2. Now, another phone from Xiaomi has appeared on GFXBench site, which seems to be the Xiaomi Mi 6c!

New Xiaomi Mi 6c smartphone (or Xiaomi Jason) appears for the first time

Recently, a phone from Xiaomi, which has the codename Jason, appeared on the popular smartphone benchmarking website GFXBench. People believe that the phone may be the new Xiaomi Mi 6c, a minor variant of the previously launched flagship Mi 6. In the past, the Chinese smartphone manufacturer released different versions of the flagship line in many countries as well. Notable examples are the Xiaomi Mi 4c and Xiaomi Mi 5c. This time, it may as well be a similar case.

According to GFXBench, one of the highlights of Xiaomi Mi 6c specs is the latest Snapdragon 660 processor. This phone may be among the first devices in the market to house this new chipset. The SND 660 SoC launched earlier in May, and it is a massive improvement over the previous SND 650. Notably, it supports up to 8GB of RAM, and also supports display of up to 2K (QHD) resolution. With this new chipset, Xiaomi Mi 6c is going to be quite potent!

Aside from the SND 660, which has octa-core CPU clocked at 2.2GHz, Mi 6c also has 6 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of internal storage. Outside, the phone sports a 5.1-inch display with Full HD resolution. Xiaomi Mi 6c camera features a 12MP rear lens with 4K recording and a 4MP front sensor for taking selfies. The phone runs the MIUI version based on the latest Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS. Overall, it looks like a very promising phone!
