processor, quad-camera set-up and mammoth battery. The phone is priced at Rs 13,999 for the 4GB+64GB variant and Rs 15,999 for the 6GB+64GB. DESIGN •

The Redmi Note 6 Pro comes is quite long, which doesn't make it a great piece for one-hand usability. The smartphone is quite narrow due to its 19:9 aspect ratio screen. Although the screen is covered with a 2.5D curved Gorilla Glass, because of its ultra-wide display, the phone is difficult to operate and can often lead to accidental dropping. The front is covered with glass, curved from the sides, while the back looks too shiny. In terms of usability, the phone feels heavy but is comfortable to carry in the pocket or pouch.

DISPLAY •

The Redmi Note 6 Pro sports a 6.26-inch fullHD+ screen, stretched in a 19:9 aspect ratio. Compared to its predecessor, the phone also has a bigger screen with a notch on top, accommodating dual front cameras, earpiece and sensors. The Screen has an IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen but lacks the maximum brightness levels. The notch is small, compared with other smartphones in the same segment. The rounded corners of the screen look better than pointed edges, and the curved sides of the glass are easy to operate. A fairly good resolution and the large screen make it a good buy for multimedia nerds who like watching videos on the go.

BATTERY •

The phone has a 4,000 mAh battery. With moderate use, the battery lasts for one and a half day, while with extensive use it would last for 12 hours. But the phone does heat up slightly while charging and if used extensively, but not to the point that it is rendered unstable. The phone takes more than one-and-a-half hours to replenish its battery from zero to 100 per cent.
