      I'm going to order Mi 5s gray color soon,

      But I'm confused because after whatching many reviews I noticed that the back panel in the gray model (in some units) has a brushed metal finish with a dark gray color, while in other units it was matt light gray metal!

      The confusion is that both of them were referred to as GRAY!!

      And what makes it even more confusing is that I didn't find any review mentioning that or anyone in the internet seems to notice this obvious difference!

      I much prefer the dark gray brushed metal varient, and I dont want to end up with the matte gray one!

      So please, does anyone here notice that difference and has any idea on how to differentiate one from the other (for example, by a code written on the box or something!)

      Many thanks

            Amir78577, 28 May 2017i dont know which to buy: mi 5 prime or mi 5s 64gb a little help here guys... I am having the same conflict but I Guess I ll go for 5s as it has better camera sensor in it. But if you are up for performance rather than camera I think prime is slightly better.

                        This phone is perfect which can be compared directly with Samsung S7 on any kind of performance.
                        Almost all our daily need apps are already inbuilt on this phone for which we don't need to download again.
                        I am very happy with Xiaomi Mi 5s.
                        Near future, I hope Xiaomi will overtake the smartphones of all brands of the world.

                            David, 03 May 2017+1 Listen, I'm going through the very same comparison with the very same criteria, and so far... morebelieve me, I have the MI 5s - and I would say, don't touch it with a pole. It is a brick, it won't even let me make calls and won't let me change the locale from "China". Anybody looking to buy one, let me know - I want a HTC One. Stick with phones that are reputable!
                            And I have tried getting help on the online forum, not a thing. The help files are all pidgin English and I am not technical enough to get around the lack of syntax. Perhaps this just needs a more technically minded person? One the plus side, the battery and screen are A+.

Coz it has many problem on the software. If you are looking for a good phone with lower price point,I suggest you to buy zuk z2 or mi 5s.Honor 8 is also a good choice.
