The Xiaomi Mi 6 is just a few days away from making an official appearance, and as is the case with most smartphones these days, we have a pretty good idea of what to expect ahead of the phone’s announcement. A recent leak had said that Xiaomi would be equipping both the Mi 6 and Mi 6 Plus with the Snapdragon 835 SoC; the Snapdragon 835 is set to be the SoC of choice for this year’s flagship smartphones, and it looks like it will make for blazing-fast performance on Xiaomi’s upcoming phones.
The Mi 6 has been listed on the Geekbench benchmark database earlier today, with single-core and multi-core performance scores of 2006 and 6438. Those are impressive scores to say the least, even though the unit tested wasn’t running on the processor’s maximum clock speed. The scores are also much higher than those of the Google Pixel, which is the fastest Android flagship on the market right now. Since the Snapdragon 835 is manufactured on a 10nm process, the Mi 6 is likely to be very energy efficient as well, especially since Xiaomi is expected to stick to Full HD displays for the standard and Plus variants of the device.
