Xiaomi Mi 5s Review

Score: 76.4 / 100

Xiaomi Mi 5s is a top quality Android device launched many years ago, featuring a good size 5.2 inches display, a high-tech Quad-Core processor ticking at 2.34 gigahertz, a 12 MP back facing camera and a 4 megapixels front camera. But let's get into more details.

Xiaomi sells this phone with a high-tech Quad-Core CPU running at 2340 megahertz, packed into the Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 MSM8996 Pro chip and a huge 4 GB RAM memory. This cellphone comes with an excellent 128 GB internal storage memory and whereas it doesn't include an external memory card slot, it it is more than enough to install hundreds of applications without thinking about filling it.

Being just 0.32" thick,this phone is very slim and stilized. The Xiaomi Mi 5s only has 5.73 inches long, but it still manages to hold a 5.2" display. Regarding its construction, this phone is majorly made of Metal . Xiaomi made a really good design job making this phone weight only 5.11 ounces. Xiaomi made this cellphone in a nice range of colors like gold, gray, pink and silver.

This phone is equipped with two cameras, a 12 megapixels back camera and a 4 MP front camera. this cellphone's back camera lens has a maximum 2 aperture so it can capture excellent photos even in poor lighting conditions. It is capable of shooting videos in 3840x2160 (4K) at 30 fps, and slow motion videos in (Full HD) (1920x1080) up to 120 frames per second (4 times slower ).

This phone is equipped with a incredible 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) 5.2" screen, which makes everything look absolutely great.

This phone packs a 3200 mAh great Li - Ion non-removable battery that can keep it running for several hours without charging it. An issue to evaluate is that this phone's battery is not replaceable so you can't change it when it starts to get older, although with its 3200 mAh you will probably discard this device before it becomes a real problem.

The Xiaomi Mi 5s includes wifi connectivity (although it can't provide it to other devices around, acting as a modem or router), 4G LTE-A , the fastest data connection and the fastest 3G connection type, using HSPA technologies. This cellphone has dual SIM so it is able to use 2 different phone numbers or carriers.

This phone also includes a wide range of useful characteristics like Fingerprint Sensor, NFC, Bluetooth (4.2 ) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

Xiaomi is offering this cellphone for $ 345, which is quite high for comparing with other similar phones. This phone is very appropiate for you it doesn't matter whether you want a gaming cellphone, want a work cellphone, will use it as a social cellphone or want this cellphone to take many photos.
