As per the listing, the Mi 6 will run the underclocked version of the Snapdragon 835 at 1.9GHz, which means that the phone will deliver better battery life. A previous rumor suggested that one variant of the phone will use the underclocked version of the Snapdragon 835, whereas the high-end variant will come with high clock speed at 2.45GHz. The Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+ house the same SoC and comes with clock speeds of 2.35GHz (four cores) and 1.9GHz (four cores).

Even though bearing a lower clock speed, the Mi 6, at 2006 and 6438 points, achieved insane scores in both single-core and multi-core tests respectively. The listing further reveals that the phone will come with 6GB of RAM and will boot Android 7.1.1 Nougat on top of MIUI 9.
