The Xiaomi Mi 5, one of the new flagships of the Asian brand Xiaomi, will debut on the market on the same dates as the high-end mobiles of companies such as Apple, Samsung or Sony. At first, it was planned that the presentation of this mobile would take place at the end of the year but, as revealed by a new leak, the Xiaomi Mi 5 could be presented on August 5. At the moment, we do not know if the presentation of the supposed Xiaomi Mi 5 Plus (a phablet type variant (no less than 5.7 inches) of the Mi 5) will take place on the same day.
As announced from AndroidHeadlines.com, Xiaomi has announced an official event that will take place in Asia on August 5. The event will be held at the National Convention Center in Beijing (China), and from the Asian website Mobile-Dad.com they point out that there is a good chance that we are facing the event in which Xiaomi will officially present the new Xiaomi Mi 5. Taking into account that the South Korean company Samsung itself could present the new Note 5 in August, it is not unreasonable to think that Xiaomi will present its new smartphone on these same dates.
The Xiaomi Mi 5 will demonstrate their technical specifications of high - end starting with a design metal housing, and will be headed by a screen of 5.2 inches which will reach a resolution of type Quad HD (ie, 2,560 x 1,440 pixels). Below this metal case we will probably with a processor Snapdragon 820 from Qualcomm (in the case of this processor model does not leave the factory on time, the other model that is rumored is the Snapdragon 810), 3 gigabytes of RAM, a 16 megapixel main camera, A front camera of 13 megapixels, technology fast charging (Quick Charge of Qualcomm, we assume) and a battery with a capacity of 3,000 mAh.
But if we are not convinced with these characteristics, Xiaomi will also offer a version of the My 5 of higher-end yet. We are talking about the Xiaomi Mi 5 Plus, which is planned to incorporate a 5.7-inch screen (with the same resolution, Quad HD). The Mi 5 Plus and the Mi 5 will share a large part of their technical specifications, although they will differ in aspects such as RAM (in the case of this variant, we would speak of 4 GigaBytes) or the capacity of the battery (3,500 mAh in the case of this phablet). As far as design is concerned, the Xiaomi Mi 5 and Mi 5 Plus are expected to share a very similar look.
In summary, and even if rumors appear that deny this date, it is most likely that in a matter of weeks we will get rid of doubts regarding the characteristics of the new Xiaomi phones. Regardless of the price that these mobiles have at their launch, we must bear in mind that to acquire them from European territory we will have no choice but to go through the import, so that the price that we must pay will be slightly higher than the official price.
