Xiaomi mi 6 would be delayed until April because of the snapdragon 835
Xiaomi Mi 6 is the new 'bug' from China that is going to nurture the smartphone market during 2017. The Xiaomi company had planned to launch this phone in February, but ultimately it will not.
Xiaomi Mi 6 will be a high-end phone with a 5.2-inch screen with curved sides, a 20-megapixel rear camera and the Snapdragon 835 processor inside. This last component would be the cause of the delay.
Apparently, the Snapdragon 835 chip would not be ready for the February launch, but it would be ready for April, the date the Xiaomi Mi 6 was finally launched.
