From time to rumors circulating on the network linked to Xiaomi MI5, the next flagship of the Chinese producer should be released later this year or in early 2016. Since the summer of this year the new flagship has been postponed because now it is virtually certain, mount the new SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 820.

 It is thanks to the adoption of the new chipset manufacturer Californian who Xiaomi MI5 could become the world’s first smartphone to use a fingerprint sensor ultrasound. Ultrasonic Fingerprint Recognition technology is integrated into what’s called Qualcomm Snapdragon Sense 3D Fingerprint Technology and is part of the many features of the new chipset that promises truly innovative.

 Recognition technology 3D creates a very detailed map of the fingerprint, in a much more defined using current technologies. It becomes much more complex circumvent security “copying” the fingerprint and the device turns out to be better protected. The most interesting fact is that it serves a particular sensor or a button, as has happened so far, as it will be possible to recognize the imprint through plastic, metal and glass.

 Hence the next generation of smartphones will integrate the sensor into any existing component, such as the bottom frame, while improving the overall design of the device. If all the rumors leaked so far might be confirmed, Xiaomi MI5 promises to be one of the best smartphones of 2016 and a formidable opponent for the flagship of the leading manufacturers.

One of the most anticipated phones this year is the Xiaomi Mi5. What will be the worthy successor to the Xiaomi Mi4 promises high-end features and a price well below many of its competitors. The device is known internally as Libra and just filtered many possible specifications. In addition, it has also transcended their possible departure, which, as leaked in the roadmap of the company, would be scheduled for November.

 Far from mounting a huge screen, Xiaomi could have incorporated into its new flagship of medium size. According to sources, the Xiaomi Mi5 panel would have a 5.3 inch QHD resolution, or what are the same 1,440 x 2,560 pixels. We are talking about a density of 554 pixels per inch, so the display will be one of the biggest complaints of the phone. Inside there would be room for the latest processor from Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 820, and a model that would have been built to stop the bad press that has given the company the Snapdragon 810, which as you know has had serious problems of overheating. Meanwhile, RAM 4GB would be a perfect number to work and move applications quickly.

 With regard to internal storage rumored the Xioami Mi5 come with 16 or 64GB, always expandable through MicroSD memory cards. In the photographic section Xiaomi Mi5 did not have anything to envy to other phones like the Samsung Galaxy S6 as equip a main camera with 16 megapixel sensor. The secondary camera would be 6 megapixels. As for other features Xiaomi Mi5, the next high-end Asian would have to fingerprint sensor, along with a battery of 3,030 mAh. This would allow us to have a perfect autonomy to endure a whole day without charging the device. The Xiaomi Mi5 would also governed by Android 5.1 Lollipop, the most recent release of the platform.

 As mentioned above, Xioami have plans to launch the phone next November. It is not known for sure, because the company could delay their arrival to ensure that the Snapdragon 820 works perfectly and gives no problems he has had his predecessor. No hurry, because before this device expect another, the Redmi Note 2, a phone that will leave us with very good taste, judging by a recent leaks. It rumored to arrive in phablet format with a 5.5-inch screen and HD resolution. The chip chosen for this model would be an eight-core, one MediaTek MT-679, which runs at a speed of up to 2.2 GHz. The device also equips a main 13 megapixel camera and a secondary 5-megapixel operating system Android 5.0 Lollipop and 3.000mAh battery.

Xiaomi may submit its next smartphone Mi5 top of the range with a Snapdragon 820 next November, with a release later this year.

A member of the Chinese site Weibo today released new details of Xiaomi and his next high-end smartphone, the MI5. According to the source, the device will be presented next November.

Xiaomi MI5 could be presented next November, and will be equipped with the latest generation SoC Qualcomm, the Snapdragon 820, combined with a 5.5-inch display with QHD resolution, 4 GB of RAM LPDDR4, a 16 or 20 megapixel camera, a sensor for fingerprints, output USB type C and a thickness of only 5.1 millimeters. Remember however that this is not yet formalized voices, so the data sheet and the date of submission may undergo a change in the future.

The choice of Xiaomi to opt for the Snapdragon 820 will allow the Chinese company to use the latest technologies to Qualcomm on sensors for fingerprints, which will not need more than a capacitive sensor or a physical key (we talked about in this article) . The month of November was decided based on the programs of Qualcomm. The Chinese company had indeed thought of a summer release of its next flagship, but decided to wait for the famous manufacturer of SoC ended the new generation of processors, to offer the best available in the market.

Xiaomi MI5 will release later this year, while maintaining the busy summer. Will in fact be released at that time the Mi4s, a revised version of the flagship last year, with SoC Snapdragon 810 and a 13-megapixel camera with OIS. This device should be presented next July 15.

A few days ago Xiaomi introduced a new device, the Xiaomi Mi4i, made to seduce the international audience. This is a slightly more modest version of its current flagship, the Xiaomi Mi4, which is available only in their native country: China. It is true that the company has quite successful in its territory but outside it starts to be quite dear. Not only for the quality of their phones, also for the price, suitable for pockets crisis.

 While still trying to make their flagship phone a strong rival, seepage will be his successor, Xiaomi Mi5 appears. A document that would have been recorded in the office of Intellectual Property in China reveals some possible features that incorporate. In all, the most striking is the appearance of a fingerprint sensor fingerprint, which we assume would be in the start button. This feature, launched by Apple in its iPhone 5S, is spreading to a large majority of devices. With it we can, among other things, lock the device with the fingerprint, which adds more security in protecting our content. Other terminals as the Galaxy S5, S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge of Samsung and Huawei Mate7 or HTC One Max also integrated.

 Other specifications that have leaked let us go making us an idea of how it will look the new high-end Asian. The screen would be too big, have a size of 5.2 inches and a resolution qHD. Thus, we allow Xiaomi Mi5 to compete with other devices that have already hit the market as the Samsung Galaxy S6 or some that are coming, like LG G4 or Huawei P8, introduced last April 15 in London. The chip chosen for the occasion would be Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 SoC quad-core architecture Krait 450. I would go accompanied by a 3GB RAM and internal storage capacity of 64GB, we do not know now if it would be expandable or not by the using MicroSD cards.

 The camera section would be starring a 16-megapixel main, the same that equips the Samsung Galaxy S6, and 8-megapixel secondary. Hopefully also add some ways for us to capture the highest possible quality. Also be taken into account, the diaphragm aperture and shutter speed. Currently, these data are slipping. For its part, the Xiaomi Mi5 also makes use of a battery of sufficient capacity. According to leaks could mount a 3,600 milliamps, allowing us to use the Xiaomi Mi5 for hours without having to think about charging. We do not know when it could be announced. We thought it might be this summer, since the Xiaomi Mi4 was submitted in July 2014. Keep you informed when we have more data to offer.

Here, Xiaomi has the wind in its sails this morning. As proof, the manufacturer is entitled to a second article published a few minutes after the previous one. Fun, right? Certainly, but this time things are a little more fun since it is downright three stolen pictures supposed to stage the Xiaomi MI5 coming fall. And guess what? They are very pretty to look at.

It is better to be careful, of course, but these images correspond quite well to the latest leaks dated and they agree even with all the rumors we’ve seen pass since last year.

If we are to believe what is rumored in the middle, the Xiaomi MI5 should actually be provided with extremely thin bezels and display and occupy much of the front of the terminal. A bit like what LG offers its latest flagships, in short .

A high-end technical sheet for Xiaomi MI5?

Everyone does not agree in the technical characteristics of the beast assumed, however. Particularly in terms of the definition of the screen. Some think it could push up QHD, others that it would be limited to Full HD.

In any case, we should expect a diagonal between 5.2 and 5.7 inches, but also to a Snapdragon 805/810 coupled with 3GB of RAM. The terminal would decline in three different storage capacities: 16GB, 32GB and 64GB all with a large battery of 3600 mAh behind…

But the real strength of MI5, it should be its price. Xiaomi has always pursued a very aggressive pricing policy, and it is rather surprising that the manufacturer currency strategy for its new terminal. After all, you know what is being said, we do not change a winning team.

The post Xiaomi MI5: New photos stolen? appeared first on Tech China News.

The next smartphone flagship Chinese Xiaomi MI5 continues to be talked about, since today on the web have been spread some live images that recur (the conditional is a must) in all its structure, showing one screenshot Benchmark with a famous relative score; the phone on paper may be announced on January 15, 2015 but we do not know if it will be presented to the event of the Chinese or the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 2.

 The new images now no longer leave nothing to the imagination; previous rumors still showed a thickness of only 5.1 mm but cannot actually be verified with the proposed photos today because the phone is not shown laterally; new images instead recover well the display of the alleged Xiaomi MI5 (Mi4S), which should be almost certainly a larger panel to the naked eye than the 5-inch display of the previous model Mi4; But from what the Benchmark shows seems that this panel will not have the qHD resolution 2560 x 1440 pixels, as some rumors indicated previously, but rather use the classic Full HD resolution 1920 x 1080 pixels.

 The heart of the product will not be the new chipset Snapragon 810 but still valid but the Snapdragon 801 with four processors Krait 400 operating at maximum frequency of 2.5 GHz combined with a GPU Adreno 330; still unknown the amount of RAM (are thought to have at least 2GB) and internal memory, which on paper may not be expandable if confirmed will be the thickness of only 5.1 mm.

 From the perspective of media there is no precise information but the latest rumors indicate with a good chance of at least 13-megapixel rear camera with autofocus, dual LED flash and a front camera for at least 5 mega pixels dedicated to Selfie.

 In the images of the Xiaomi MI5 is revealed even his score Benchmark; on known program AnTuTu 5.5 terminal achieves a score of 46866, but as always, we remind you that these software do not always represent reality but can give only an indicative amount of the potential of the hardware product.

 Consider all this new information Xiaomi MI5, if you ever actually called so because it does not seem a real revolution of the previous model (perhaps be called Xiaomi Mi4S?), Will not be a super smartphone as some rumors indicated; the phone should still be a great device if it will actually be 5.1 mm thick and will present a good general multimedia, as some rumors indicate that the Chinese company will propose on the market at a price of about 370 US dollars; We’ll see how much it will cost in Europe with the Euro and the Chinese currency, given that in our continent the prices are definitely higher than China.

The implicit message of a teaser showed few days ago ahead us Xiaomi preparing to launch a very thin model. Now that information is strengthened with new leaked images that supposedly indicate that the smartphone stand out for having a casing of just five millimeters thick. If confirmed, the Chinese manufacturer would position the Xiaomi Mi5 among the slimmest phone in the world.

 During the last hours we have witnessed several leaks about the impending Xiaomi Mi5, also speculated might be called Xiaomi Mi4s-. The latter was illustrated by our colleague David Bolaños, who showed us several photos that featured a gel case and rendered images with various possible design models. However, and in order to reveal one of the most interesting aspects of the final design of the smartphone, photographs released by a French medium are proof that the Chinese bearer of the brand will have a really thin profile.

 Exposed dimensions

 While two catches attached below graphically recorded their small thickness of the shell, is photographed internal document which allows us to measure “accuracy” of course Xiaomi Mi5 profile. And the figure illustrated scheme where the main structure of the housing is associated with what seem to be the overall dimensions of the smartphone. Thus, the future would have a team Xiaomi dimensions 140.89 per 71.4 mm and 5.1 mm thick. This last fact would position the Xiaomi Mi5 as one of the thinnest smartphones in the world, second only to other teams just presented as Vivo X5 Max with 4.75 millimeters thick, and the Oppo R5 with 4.98 mm.

 5.2 inches, the most likely action to the screen

 Similarly, measures relating to the height and width of the housing denote that will be slightly larger than the Xiaomi Mi4 (139.2 x 68.5 x 8.9 mm), so you could almost assume that the screen size is 5.2 inches and not 5.5 or 5.7 as speculated a few weeks ago. Yes, the resolution of it appears to be aimed towards the 2,560 x 1,440 pixels, the known panels 2K or QuadHD.

 All other features have occasion to confirm the upcoming January 15, the date set by the manufacturer to officially announce the expected Xiaomi Mi5.

2015 is just around the corner, and it seems that the protagonists in the market of mobile smartphones are high-end Asian companies. One of these smartphones will be the Xiaomi Mi5 the Chinese firm Xiaomi, which as only a few hours after he staged a leak has returned to jump to the media as a new filtered photograph has been accompanied by quite revealing information.

 Before analyzing the image, it is interesting that we emphasize that this leak has been accompanied by a report which reveals that the Xiaomi Mi5 could incorporate a digital fingerprint. At least that’s what I say from the Italian version of the website GizChina, which also remind us that for now there is also the possibility that the smartphone that appears in these images is actually a new Xiaomi Mi4S (a version something the Xiaomi Mi 4 presented this year).

 The fingerprint of Xiaomi Mi5 would be located on the Start button. We are talking about a security measure implemented in a manner virtually identical to that incorporate smart phones of South Korean company Samsung (see Samsung Galaxy Note 4, for example), which also bring the fingerprint reader built into the front button phone.

 As regards the filtered picture, this new image seems Xiaomi Mi5 same smartphone show that we saw yesterday. If we compare this picture with the photographs leaked during the day yesterday, we see that the smartphone that appears in them is not the same.

 In the picture published today for a mobile appears with a front camera accompanied by an additional sensor, whereas in photography leaked yesterday appeared only a front camera without any sensor beside her. The same applies to the Start button, which during yesterday appeared as three touch keys that has nothing to do with the design that has appeared in the new filtered photograph of Xiaomi Mi5. Therefore, at present we cannot verify that none of these photographs actually corresponds to the new Xiaomi Mi5.

 The technical specifications of Xiaomi Mi5 also starred leaks. It is said that this smartphone will feature a display of 5.5 and 6 inches with a resolution Quad HD (2,560 x 1,440 pixels), a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805/810, 4 gigabytes of RAM and Android OS on your version of Android 5.0 Lollipop.

 It is envisaged that the Xiaomi Mi5 be officially presented during the month of January. The presentation of this new flagship of the Asian company could take place on the 15th of January, while the 4th of the month is expected Xiaomi to present the Xiaomi Redmi 1S Dual 4G, a new version of Xiaomi Redmi 1S with connectivity Internet ultra-fast.

The CES in Las Vegas is postulated as the key moment for Xiaomi since foreseeably be the event where the Chinese make public their new flagship model, the Xiaomi Mi5. Despite the plethora of rumors and leaks we already provide a clear picture of what will the smartphone, the brand could strike a blow on the table and surprise everyone by incorporating a chip RAM 4 GB.

 Sapphire layer across 5.7 inch Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor, fingerprint sensor, camera with a pixel size of 1.75 microns … The specifications list expands at times. However, so far this technical characteristic was joined corresponding to the RAM parameter, set to date 3GB.

 One thing that would make the Xiaomi Mi5 in one of a kind

 Now, after the relevant information on the value of the firm in the technology market, it has also come to light some detail we did not know the future bearer of the Asian manufacturer. While the CEO himself confirmed January as the month in which they present the Xiaomi Mi5 also includes reference to the amount of RAM included on the motherboard model. If until now had accepted 3GB of RAM appropriate value and the height of the most powerful models on the market, the news portal Krypton 36 echo of information disclosed at the meeting in which several economic data is released of the company.

 Snapdragon 810, 4 GB of RAM, Lollipop and 64 bits for an explosive set

 And the Xiaomi Mi5 rise to 4 GB the amount of RAM available on the system. Thus the manufacturer of smartphones winning positions in the world ranking to breakneck speed surprised to provide such data so far available to very few teams, for now. Thus, in combination with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor and Android 5.0 Lollipop, the Xiaomi Mi5 became the first model to fully exploit all the virtues and novelties introduced by Google in the latest version of its operating system given its support for 64 bits.

 The truth is that technically it would be possible Xiaomi Mi5 with 4 GB of RAM. We must remember that Samsung itself recently announced that it would begin manufacturing the first DDR4 RAM memory modules.
