Comparison review
Galaxy Note 3 has a global score of 81.2, which is a bit better than Xiaomi Mi 5s's global score of 76.4. These devices work with Android OS (operating system), but the Galaxy Note 3 has an older 5.0 version while Xiaomi Mi 5s has Android 6.0 Marshmallow version. Although it's the best phone in this comparison, it must be told that it is also much older, a bit thicker and somewhat heavier.
Galaxy Note 3 has a bit faster CPU than Xiaomi Mi 5s, because although it has a smaller amount of RAM memory, and they both have the same number of cores, the Galaxy Note 3 also counts with a graphics co-processor. Galaxy Note 3 features a slightly better looking display than Xiaomi Mi 5s, because although it has a little bit less pixels per inch of display, and they both have exactly the same 1920 x 1080 resolution, the Galaxy Note 3 also counts with a little larger screen.
Xiaomi Mi 5s counts with a bit more storage to store more games and applications than Samsung Galaxy Note 3, because although it has no external memory slot, it also counts with 128 GB internal memory capacity. The Galaxy Note 3's battery lifetime is just as good as the battery performance in Xiaomi Mi 5s.
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and Xiaomi Mi 5s feature really similar cameras, because although the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has a much tinier sensor taking less light and dull colors and a smaller aperture which is not good for taking pictures and videos in low-light environments, and they both have the same 3840x2160 (4K) video quality and the same 30 frames per second video frame rate, it also counts with a more mega pixels back facing camera.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 3 not only is the best phones of the ones in this comparison, but it's also very cheap compared to the other phones, which makes this phone an obvious call.
