Looks like a great phone.
If you ignore the listed $641 price tag :\.
The phone will be available in three colors (black, white, and gold), and the specifications should prove competitive with other flagship handsets on the way, including the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7:
Display: 5.2 inch, 2560x1440 Corning Gorilla Glass 4
(565 ppi)
CPU: Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 Quad Core SoC clocked
at 1.8GHz
RAM: 4GB
Storage: 16GB or 64GB
Camera: 8.0MP front camera + 16.0MP 6 element lens,
f/2.2 aperture back camera, dual LED flash
Fingerprint recognition integrated in a physical
home button
NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth: 4.0
Dual SIM
The Mi 5 will come with a relatively big 3600 mAh battery, and one of
the benefits of integrating the new Snapdragon 820 SoC is the ability
to shoot 4K video in both
H264 and
HEVC
formats, with the latter making it easier to cram your ultra high
definition videos on the internal storage, especially since the Mi5
doesn't seem to offer a microSD slot.
