Xiaomi just recently announced the Mi Max – an economical 6.44″ phablet that packs performance with style.

The Xiaomi Mi Max will be made available in two different CPU models. The first and the more powerful model features the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 chipset with an octa-core (Cortex-A72 and Cortex-A53) processor. This model will be available with both 128/64 GB of internal storage and 4 GB of RAM.

The Mi Max also features a fingerprint sensor on the back and an impressive 4,850 mAh battery that can be charged to 83% in 30 minutes (via Quick Charge 3.0). The phablet will be available for as cheap as $230 (approximately PKR 24000/-) in China but these prices are expected to rise after shipping costs are included.
Another announcement made by Xiaomi at the launch of the Mi Max was the release of the MIUI 8.0 that is based on the Android 6.0 Marshmallow platform. The MIUI 8.0 will now be made available on all compatible Xiaomi devices.
