Xiaomi Mi 5 Review Specification

 

Xiaomi's recent launch of the Mi 4i is likely to be followed by a few additions to the flagship series. According to details shared by Gizmochina, Xiaomi is planning two more devices to join the flagship range namely, Mi 5 and Mi 5 Plus. Users will not have to wait too long as the devices are expected to debut sometime in July this year. Both Mi 5 and its large-screen spin-off are expected to offer significantly better hardware features than last year's flagship, the Mi 4. The Mi 5 is likely to come with a 5.2in screen, while using octa-core Snapdragon  810 processor, coupled with 3GB RAM. The rear camera will see a bump to 16  megapixels from 13 megapixels of the Mi 4. It will use a 3,000mAh battery. It is also rumoured to have fingerprint ID technology.The Mi 5 Plus would have a 6in screen delivering 2K resolution, and a bezel-less design. It is expected to use a processor similar to that of the Mi 5 but pack 1GB RAM more than the former. It will have a 16 megapixel camera but with Optical Image Stabilization.

  

 The Xiaomi Mi5 will tout a significantly larger display than all of its predecessors – a 5.2-incher with an extremely dense resolution of 1440 x 2560 pixels (565 ppi). Under the hood, we'll be supposedly looking at a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor with four Krait 450 cores clocked at 2.7GHz and a powerful Adreno 420 GPU. Like the Mi4 before it, the Mi5 is also listed having 3GB of LP-DDR3 RAM on board, which is plenty enough at this point, and a choice between 16GB and 64GB of eMMC 5.0 on-board flash storage. The rest of the revealed specs include a 16-megapixel rear camera with wide, f/1.8 lens, along with an 8-megapixel selfie snapper at the front. Lastly, the battery packed within is with a generous capacity of 3,600 mAh.
