Xiaomi Mi 6 price in Malaysia starts from RM1479, putting a flagship Snapdragon 835 chipset into a phone that's easy to hold. The octa-core processor pairs with 6GB RAM and either 64GB or 128GB storage, enough for most people's daily use without needing a memory card slot, since there isn't one. Its 5.15-inch IPS LCD screen packs in 428 ppi, sharp for a display this size, and the whole thing weighs just 168g.

The dual rear camera setup is the standout here: a 27mm f/1.8 lens with OIS next to a 52mm f/2.6 telephoto, giving you 2x optical zoom without digital cropping. Both shoot 12MP stills and the setup handles 4K video at 30fps. An 8MP front camera covers selfies.

Battery sits at 3350mAh, non-removable, charged through USB Type-C. Xiaomi also added splash resistance, NFC and an infrared port, small extras that add up if you're comparing it against similarly priced options from the same era.
