The record-breaking sales is a product of the company’s Mi Fan Fest that happened during the celebration of Xiaomi’s 5th birthday. Because of this, they currently hold the title for the “Most mobile phones sold on a single online platform within 24 hours”. Other bigger brands also sell millions of units, but they do so through different portals.

But when talking about just a single online platform, Xiaomi brings home the bacon.

They also revealed not only the total sales of their handsets, but also their other products.

With Xiaomi announcing their phablet with premium specs and affordable price tag, they’re obviously going after and competing against other manufacturers in the same scene. One of them is Apple with its iPhone 6 Plus. Let’s take a look at the side-by-side comparison of both their specs.

In favor of Mi Note Pro:

  • Bigger display size
  • Quad HD screen resolution
  • More pixel count
  • Better glass design
  • Powerful Snapdragon 810 processor
  • 4GB LPDDR4 RAM
  • Larger megapixel count on rear and front cameras
  • Hi-Fi sound processor
  • Thinner form factor
  • Lighter
  • Way more affordable

In favor of iPhone 6 Plus:

  • Can go up to 128GB storage
  • NFC (Apple Pay)
  • Fingerprint sensor
  • UV sensor
  • Heart rate monitor

On paper, the iPhone 6 Plus’ specs are a far cry compared to that of Xiaomi Mi Note Pro’s. Same is the case for both their pricing with the Note Pro being much more affordable than the iPhone. But since we know that the iPhone’s decent specs work together more efficiently than other higher spec’d internals, it will all just boil down to user experience to prove whether the Mi Note Pro is indeed the iPhone 6 Plus killer.
