Apple's protruding camera is the butt of Xiaomi's joke

Even well before the Apple iPhone 6 had been introduced last September, we had seen a leaked picture of the device supposedly snapped by a Foxconn employee. The thing that stood out the most on a CAD image of the model, was the protruding camera on the back of the handset. The photos leaked by that employee proved to be the real thing. In other words, we got to show you what the iPhone 6 would look like a good 6 months before the phone was unveiled.

The protruding 8MP snapper is the subject of a new video joke produced by Xiaomi. The latter's recently announced Xiaomi Mi Note features a 13MP camera with OIS that is flush with the surface of the phone.

The video, starring Xiaomi president and co-founder Bin Lin, shows the protruding iPhone 6 camera getting hit with a frying pan until it turns into the flush rear camera on the Xiaomi Mi Note. You might not be rolling over with laughter, but the video got a great response when it debuted at Xiaomi's new product introduction last week. At that event, the Mi Note phablet was unveiled revealing its 5.7-inch 1080 x 1920 resolution glass, Snapdragon 801 CPU and 3GB of RAM. Also introduced was the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro with a 5.7-inch 1440 x 2560 resolution screen, 64-bit Snapdragon 810 CPU and 4GB of RAM.
