Mi 5
Fast as light

Snapdragon 820 / 3GB RAM / 32GB UFS 2.0 Flash
4-axis OIS camera / 3D glass body


Unbelievably light. Just 129g.

Despite its 13.08cm (5.15) display and large 3000mAh battery, Mi 5 weighs just 129g. This lightness, combined with the tapered edges of a premium 3D glass body, provides an exceptional grip that rests comfortably in your hand.


4-axis OIS, can't shake it off!

Shaky hands won't get in the way of your photos with 4-axis Optical Image Stabilization (OIS). It is a feature often only found in professional cameras, and marks a significant upgrade from regular 2-axis OIS cameras. This delivers more stable recordings and clearer photos in all situations, even in low lighting.


Our brightest idea yet
Mi 5 is fitted with 16 ultra-bright, power-efficient LED lights that improve display brightness by 30% while maintaining vivid color. Experience optimal screen color and clarity, enhanced with Sunlight Display, Night Display, Reading mode and more.


Breakthroughs and beyond

Mi 5 has full-feature NFC, Quick Charge 3.0. Technology breakthroughs in several areas to make your daily life faster, easier and more efficient.
