In addition, an improved Beautify mode that makes selfies look more natural, now works with the rear camera on Mi 6. Complete user experience upgrade Mi 6 is a compact 5.15-inch device that comes with a large 3350mAh battery with higher power efficiency due to the 10nm CPU coupled with MIUI optimizations. This means that Mi 6 will easily last users an entire day on a single charge. The display on Mi 6 also incorporates technologies that allow the brightness level to start at a much lower level. This is because the display has 4096 levels of brightness that can be tweaked at 0.15nit a level, compared to devices with 256 levels of brightness that only changes 2.3nit at each level.

The 2×2 802.11ac MU-MIMO Wi-Fi greatly enhances Mi 6’s wireless performance, enabling better reception indoors, with fewer blind spots.
