A new smartphone from Xiaomi has listed on Chinese 3C certification which seems to be Xiaomi Mi 6. The model is listed as MCE16 and it comes with a 3A charger which clearly means the fast charger. The charger specification is listed as 5V 3A charger which means a 15W charger. 3C listing suggests that Xiaomi Mi 6 official launch may be round the corner.
Apart from this 3C listing, an alleged retail box of Xiaomi Mi 6 has also leaked which also gives us a sneak peek into the technical specifications of the Xiaomi’s flagship device. If you zoom up the retail box image a bit, you can see the display size of 5.15 inch along with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor powering the device. A battery of 3200 mAh capacity is also visible. It also indicates a 12 MP main rear camera and a 4 MP front shooter which is odd. We do not have more details about the camera sensors yet or perhaps it indicates a dual camera setup of 12 MP + 4 MP camera sensors, but we are not sure.
Take this with a pinch of salt.

In last few days, the rumor mills around Xiaomi Mi 6 has gained steam pushing more leaks than before though no official details are out yet. With Samsung Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ already official, the rumors have started to shift on Xiaomi Mi 6.

Also additional slot near front camera or its design doesn’t match with another set of alleged renders produced below.

We can clearly see a dual camera setup at the back at top left corner with LED flash , while the MI logo is at the bottom.
