Xiaomi Mi5s to come with curved display, 3D Touch, dual camera and…

Many pieces of news have informed us that Samsung will no longer be the only company to produce edge smartphones in 2016. Many Chinese firms will join the race and we also expect one from Xiaomi. According to some sources, the flagship Mi5 will have a new variant called Xiaomi Mi5s. Design-wise, according to MochaRQ,  an insider, the Mi5s will probably carry a curved display, but not on both sides. It can be more like Samsung Galaxy Note edge.

Besides that, the upcoming handset has also been claimed to sport a slightly different screen size compared to the original Xiaomi Mi5, perhaps 5.5 inches. Additionally, Xiaomi Mi5s specs will include some new features such as 3D Touch, Ultrasonic Fingerprint Sensor and a dual-lens camera.Those specifications will surely bring users better experience, but we also hope to see some more advanced things like Quad HD resolution, 6GB RAM, and big battery.

So, they are the main points about Xiaomi Mi5s we’ve spotted recently. Though, the manufacturer has not confirmed anything yet. However, we assume that Xiaomi won’t miss a chance to impress people in general and their fans in particular. Do you agree?

Xiaomi Mi5s price and availability

Apart from Xiaomi Mi5s appearance and hardware, the source also gave us a hint on Xiaomi Mi5s release date. It can be some time in August, which means maybe the machine will compete directly with an Apple iPhone, or a Samsung Galaxy model (the Note), or both. In terms of Xiaomi Mi5s price, there is no word made for that, yet $400 can be an ideal tag. Do you agree?
