Comparison review
Google Nexus 6P has an overall score of 80.3, which is a little bit better than the Xiaomi Mi 5s's 76.4 overall score. The Google Nexus 6P is an older and somewhat heavier phone than Xiaomi Mi 5s, but Google could make it a little thinner anyway. The Xiaomi Mi 5s features a little more vivid display than Google Nexus 6P, although it has a little smaller display, a way worse 1080 x 1920 resolution and a little worse number of pixels per display inch.
The Google Nexus 6P counts with a little faster processing unit than Xiaomi Mi 5s, because although it has less RAM, it also counts with more processing cores. Xiaomi Mi 5s's storage for applications and games is very similar to Google Nexus 6P's one, both have the same 128 GB internal storage. Google Nexus 6P has a slightly better camera than Xiaomi Mi 5s, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 video resolution, the same sensor size, the same diafragm aperture and the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, the Google Nexus 6P also has a higher resolution back facing camera.
The Google Nexus 6P counts with just a bit better battery performance than Xiaomi Mi 5s, because it has 3450mAh of battery capacity.
Although Google Nexus 6P is a better device, it is way more expensive than Xiaomi Mi 5s, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Xiaomi Mi 5s. If you prefer to save some money, you can get Xiaomi Mi 5s, letting go a couple features, but you'll get the most out of your savings.
