Galaxy C5's construction is somewhat thinner and a little lighter than Xiaomi Mi 5s, although both were released only a few months apart. Both of these phones use the same Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system, so you shouldn't perceive any difference regarding that.
The Xiaomi Mi 5s features a bit sharper display than Galaxy C5. Both of them have a same size display, a higher pixels count per inch in the screen and the same exact resolution of 1080 x 1920px. The Xiaomi Mi 5s has a little bit better hardware performance than Galaxy C5, although it has less cores (although faster), they both have the same RAM memory amount.
The Xiaomi Mi 5s has slightly more storage for games and applications than Galaxy C5, because although it has no SD extension slot, it also counts with 128 GB internal storage. Xiaomi Mi 5s has greater battery duration than Samsung Galaxy C5, because it has a 3200mAh battery capacity instead of 2600mAh.
