i interresting in camera and battry

Hi all,

This new version looks just as interesting as it's little brother MI4 which i offered and made the recipient so happy (Samsung/iphone user) that he's ready to buy another one any time!

it is no brainer as it's probably unrivaled on the value for money argument.

Some forgivable quirks,/downsides: Unexpected RARE os crashes, few menus still in Chinese (FR ROM), no support of some 4G networks in FR and a non existent support.

Despite some minor weaknesses, it is worth making the leap of faith towards this chinese manufacturer.

My guess: The day Xiaomi land their phones in EU with decent support and full compatibility to 4G EU networks, it will bury all high end overpriced competitors

How is audio quality in headphone ?! Review audio quality please!?

Xiaomi Mi5 great smartphone for their $ 285 (I have version 3 / 32Gb., Snapdragon 820). I use it almost a month and there is no problem). By the way, i advise to buy the European version of the model (it supports OTG and chinese havent). European version i bought in this store

Buy it on aliexpress. I bought 64gb 3gb ram model for 385$, and didnt pay any taxes cause seller declared item as "low value" 100$ phone )
its been 2-3 months, since i bought it, and i cant find any flaw.
P.S before that i have been using Apple for 7 years, (from Iphone 3gs to 6) and i dont regret switching to mi 5.
