I can safely say the metal body design now looks plain boring. The company does experiment with other materials like ceramic in its flagship products and even kevlar like it did in the Poco F1. One of the primary proponents of the metal-body design in the price-range, Xiaomi’s Redmi Note series popularised the design cues that are now present in almost all Xiaomi phones in the budget and mid-range segment.
Xiaomi’s design philosophy was once appreciated and even copied across the segment. The notch is present while you’re reading an article and but not when you’re watching a video on YouTube. It’s also quite pesky and refuses to go if you’re playing a game like PubG unless you manually turn it off. It doesn’t really help things here as the notch is rather wide and offers little space on either sides for icons and notifications. As ugly as the notch looks, Xiaomi gave in to the growing demand of a larger, bezel-less display and the notch was the only way to give the people what they wanted. The Redmi Note 6 Pro is basically the old Note 5 Pro, but with a notch cut-out in the display.
Will its follow-up, the Redmi Note 6 Pro live up to the same hype? More importantly, is it still the high performer? Let’s find out. With the likes of the Realme 2 Pro, the Moto One Power, and Xiaomi’s own Mi A2 for company in that segment, the Redmi Note 6 Pro has a tough road ahead to glory. While that has worked out well for OnePlus so far in the high-end segment, the mid-range category is a whole different story. Xiaomi refreshed it’s best-selling offering in a short span of time, improving upon the usability with new software-based features, while leaving out a notable hardware upgrade. With the Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro, Xiaomi has done something that OnePlus is known to do.
