The point is in ergonomics, 5.15" phones are not too big, and MI 5 is extremely light too, which is important if one use phone for what is invented lol.
i miss this phone,the size,the weight, i want a phone like this just all screen...
I remember when that one came out, I really liked the design. It also was priced like a real „flagship killer“, when OnePlus was already rapidly increasing their prices. Just too bad it didn‘t withstand the Jerry Rig Everything bend test.

Best phone ever. Almost 5 years and still my primary phone. Never changed battery and still can do 1+ days from full charge. Very thankful with dev on supporting the phone with custom rom. MI5 can have Android 11 with it.

Bought it in Oct 2016.
Just changed the battery last week. Put in Original BN22 I bought from Aliexpress. Gives SoT of 7 hours after a new battery. Running Amazingly well. Have the 4gb 64gb version
2021 mi 5 prime update.
Bought this phone (used) off of a mate back in November 2019. this sold just because it had chinese rom on Android 6. After purchase i flashed it with Global 8.0, no issues whatsoever.
battery last around 8hrs with moderate use unless I'm using mobile data then its mostly 3-4hrs. I only use 2a or 1a charger. till 80%
phone heating issue, resolved by diy thermal pad replacement.
why this problem in MI 5 (208)
chinhnguyen, 28 Mar 20213 months ago, after 4years of service my mi 4 is broke ,i just bought next phone is the Mi 5 ... moreur blind, just get pixel 4a or 5 for me it was perfect swap from mi5 to pixel 5
3 months ago, after 4years of service my mi 4 is broke ,i just bought next phone is the Mi 5 prime. in the 2021. well. i still prefer my mi4, it fits more hand and weighs heavier than mi 5. i really don't like the new phones these days, partly because i don't have money, and i don't like their design more
i get this phone before 9 days from now i think this awosme phone in my hand great performance with huge battery with strong camera the perfect phone for me
I really miss this form factor,i hope once xiaomi make an SE edition thing with 6 inch because there is space for it
Daily Driver. Performance Still Great As Of 2021 Via Official LineageOS 17.1 With Antivirus + VPN (Secure). Battery With SD820 Cant Expect That Great (Boost From Greenify & Disable Feature + Dev Op).
I have no mobile number.i forget pasward.i reset my mobile.what can i do now.open my mobile
2021 Jan Have changed my battery for 2 twice in last 6month. Now I started to take care of my battery. I try avoid using any fast charging port, charging it overnight and always let the phone release the heat (especially when I gaming i will just remove the case). Now the battery lifespan have improve alot and really hope this phone can stand for another few years
Anonymous, 06 Jan 2021Happy New Year 2021. Another year for the Mi 5. Battery has to be recharged 3 times a day. ... moreWhen you buy this phone?
4 years completes for 2021 January 30.
Always used as a second phone. i think total talk time is still below 2hrs. mostly used for internet and photos.
Now battery twice charged per Day. always used with a cover and tempered glass so no even single scratch. signal is weak. cant catch and hold 4g signal well.camera still same as new. phone lags time to time and touch response is not good. 3gb ram now like 1gb. hope to use untill 2022. no money for a new phone.
Happy New Year 2021. Another year for the Mi 5.
Battery has to be recharged 3 times a day. The SD 820 heats up even at Facebook. Both front and back camera got dust inside. Back cover (plastic) cracked up. USB-C port a little loose and dirty. Headphone jack still going strong and producing okay audio. Vibration motor weakened. Speaker sound diminished.
But the camera can still make good quality photos and the OIS helps with video. Running LineageOS 17.1. WiFi and cellular reception very weak.
Really hoping to upgrade to a Redmi Note 10(?) when it comes out.
