Comparison review
The Apple iPhone 6s has a global score of 83, which is just a bit better than the Xiaomi Mi 5s's overall score of 76.4. Despite of the fact that Apple iPhone 6s is older than the Xiaomi Mi 5s, it's design is just a little lighter and somewhat thinner. The Apple iPhone 6s has iOS 9.x operating system, and Xiaomi Mi 5s has Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system.
The Apple iPhone 6s has just a bit better performance than Xiaomi Mi 5s, because although it has an inferior number of cores and also slower and a smaller amount of RAM, it also counts with an extra graphics co-processor and a 64-bit processing unit. Apple iPhone 6s counts with a little bit better screen than Xiaomi Mi 5s, although it has a much lower resolution of 1334 x 750 pixels, a just a bit less pixels per display inch, less brightness and a quite smaller display.
The Apple iPhone 6s's camera is just as good as the camera in Xiaomi Mi 5s, and although the Apple iPhone 6s has a much smaller back camera sensor which provides a way worse photo and video quality and a tinier diafragm aperture which is not favorable for low-light photography and video, they both have a 12 mega-pixels camera, the same 30 frames per second video frame rates and the same video quality.
Apple iPhone 6s's storage for applications, games, photos and videos is just as good as the Xiaomi Mi 5s one, they have exactly the same internal storage. The Xiaomi Mi 5s has a much better battery duration than iPhone 6s, because it has an 87% larger battery capacity.
Although iPhone 6s is a better device, it costs a lot more than the Xiaomi Mi 5s, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Xiaomi Mi 5s. So if you need that extra specs and features, you can buy iPhone 6s, but if you don't you can save some money and get the Xiaomi Mi 5s, letting go some specs and features.
