The good thing about Xiaomi waiting until later in the year to release its latest flagship smartphone is that the company can utilize the unreleased Snapdragon 820 chip that should be powering many of next year’s flagships. This is exactly what Xiaomi is reportedly doing with the Mi5, which is easily the company’s most highly-anticipated product of the year.
Xiaomi is currently the number one smartphone manufacturer in China, and it has been that way for quite some time now. The company has taken the number one spot last year and has held onto it ever since then. Xiaomi has announced quite a few smartphones and other tech gadgets this year already, but everyone is waiting for them to release their new flagship, the Mi 5. The Xiaomi Mi 5 has leaked a number of times this year, and according to the latest available info, this device will launch in November, which makes sense because the company announced their Mi Note flagships back in January. That’s not the only info that came our way recently, in addition to the release month of the device, the leak also said that the Mi 5 will be powered by the yet-unreleased Snapdragon 820 SoC, sport a 5.2-inch QuadHD (2560 x 1440) display and feature a 20.7 and 2-megapixel megapixel shooter on its back and front, respectively.
