The Redmi 6 has a horizontally stacked pair of dual rear cameras with a 12-megapixel primary sensor and a 5-megapixel secondary sensor. On paper, these cameras look competent. On the front, the phone gets a 5-megapixel selfie camera with AI beautification capabilities. Talking about battery, the Redmi 6 has a 3000 mAh battery. This phone, like the Redmi 6A, supports 4G VoLTE. Though the Redmi 6 is a good deal in itself, I think customers will be much happy to buy the Xiaomi Mi A2 lite instead of the Redmi 6 because it gives you better performance and better screen for a very small increase in price.
