Last week it was teased that this week Xiaomi could launch their new flagship handset in the form of the Xiaomi Mi 6. For those who have been looking forward to the phone, you’ll be pleased to learn that the Xiaomi Mi 6 has been officially launched and from what we can tell, it packs some pretty impressive hardware under the hood.

For starters we’re looking at a phone with a 5.15-inch display with curved glass on all sides of the phone. Under the hood, users can also expect to find Qualcomm’s latest chipset in the form of the Snapdragon 835, and it seems that Xiaomi has decided to pack the Mi 6 with a whopping 6GB of RAM.

It will also come with a 12MP rear-facing dual camera setup on the back where it combines a wide-angle lens with a zoom lens. The phone will also feature a 3,350mAh battery and it looks like Xiaomi will be continuing the trend of not including a headphone jack with the phone. It will be priced at around $360 for the 64GB model, $420 for the 128GB model, and there is a version with 128GB of storage and a ceramic back that will cost around $435.

As for availability, given that Xiaomi has yet to break into the US market as far as smartphones are concerned, we doubt that the Xiaomi Mi 6 will see the light of day stateside, but you could always try a grey market import if you absolutely have to have the device.
