Xiaomi Mi 5X is back in the news. While the smartphone leaked for the first time this past week, Xiaomi has already confirmed its existence, the presence of dual rear cameras, the use of MIUI 9, as well as a launch date of July 26. Registrations for the Mi 5X’s first sale have also begun, and within 24 hours, it already received 200,000 registrations. Now, the smartphone has been shown in greater detail in the lead-up to the launch.

The Xiaomi Mi 5X renders revealed (seen above and below) by the company don’t show much about the smartphone that wasn’t already revealed by the original launch invite and the subsequent booking page. We already know the smartphone will launch in three colour variants – Black, Gold, and Rose Gold (Pink).

We now also know it will feature hardware capacitive buttons on the front panel, and that the front camera setup will feature a single lens. As seen before as well, the power button and volume rocker is on the right panel, with no button on the left.

Xiaomi Mi 5x specifications are tipped to include a 5.5-inch full-HD display, a Snapdragon 625 SoC, and 4GB of RAM. The smartphone is confirmed to sport a dual rear camera setup, and earlier leaks tipped an optical zoom feature apart from dual-tone LED flash. A fingerprint scanner can be seen on the rear panel of the officially shared image.

As for how much it will cost, the Xiaomi Mi 5X price is tipped to start at CNY 1,999 (roughly Rs. 19,000), which is also the starting price of the Xiaomi Mi 5s.

XIAOMI MI 5X FIRST SALE REGISTRATIONS CROSS 200,000 WITHIN 24 HOURS

Xiaomi Mi 5X – the Mi 5 variant that Xiaomi on Tuesday confirmed would launch on July 26 – has crossed over 200,000 registrations for its first sale in just 24 hours. Registrations were at 209,900 at the time of writing. The feat is notable because nothing much has been revealed about the smartphone yet, beyond its dual rear camera setup and the presence of MIUI 9, the latest version of Xiaomi’s custom Android ROM. Another factor that may have played a large hand in the interest is a contest where registered buyers could win Xiaomi Mi 5X, among other prizes.

The Xiaomi Mi 5X was first leaked earlier this month, and so far, we know quite a bit about the upcoming smartphone. Xiaomi Mi 5x specifications are tipped to include a 5.5-inch full-HD display, a Snapdragon 625 SoC, and 4GB of RAM. The smartphone is confirmed to sport a dual rear camera setup, and earlier leaks tipped an optical zoom feature apart from dual-tone LED flash. A fingerprint scanner can be seen on the rear panel of the officially shared image.

As for how much it will cost, the Xiaomi Mi 5X price is tipped to start at CNY 1,999 (roughly Rs. 19,000), which is also the starting price of the Xiaomi Mi 5s. Earlier this week, Xiaomi launched the Mi Max 2 in India, the company’s latest phablet. First unveiled in May, the smartphone sports a 6.44-inch display like its predecessor, and is powered by a massive 5300mAh battery. The Xiaomi Mi Max 2 price in India was set as Rs. 16,999, and the smartphone will go on sale during Xiaomi’s 3rd Mi Anniversary sale on Thursday and Friday before becoming more broadly available on July 27.

Dual-camera smartphones: Here’s how Moto G5S Plus, Huawei Honor 6X, Lenovo K8 Note and others compare

Motorola recently announced the launch of a special version of Moto G5, the Moto G5S Plus. The G5S Plus was launched alongside the Moto G5S at an event in Delhi on 29 August.

The key highlight of the G5S Plus is the unibody metal design carved out of a single block of metal, in addition to the dual camera setup on the back. The Moto G5S, despite its dual rear camera feature still falls in the relatively budget segment of devices.

However, Moto G5S Plus isn’t the only game in town. Offlate, a lot of companies such as Xiaomi and parent company for Motorola, Lenovo, Huawei, and Coolpad have launched the Xiaomi Mi 5X, Honor 6X, Coolpad Cool Play 6 and Lenovo K8 Note in the market. To be fair, Xiaomi has not launched the Mi 5X in the Indian market but the smartphone is expected to launch in the coming week.

Dual camera setup may or may not result in an improved quality of images that users shoot using the camera. The implementation of dual camera setup may vary depending from device to device and from manufacturer to manufacturer. Usually, the configuration of the camera depends on the pricing of the device and what features the smartphone manufacturer is promising. Smartphone makers are capitalizing on buzz words like ‘Dual camera’ as more and more people may think that Dual-camera setup is much better than a single-camera setup.

With the launch of Moto G5S Plus after the launch of Coolpad Cool Play 6 and upcoming launch of Xiaomi Mi 5X on the horizon. We thought that this is the right time to compare all the budget smartphones with dual camera setup available in the Indian market. So for our comparison, I choose the Moto G5S Plus, Xiaomi Mi 5X, Lenovo K8 Note, Huawei Honor 6X, and Coolpad Cool Play 6. All these smartphones are around the same price point and target the budget smartphone buyers. We wanted to check out which is the best smartphone with a Dual-camera setup. One thing to note here is that the comparison here takes into account, the specifications of the smartphones on paper which may vary from the real world performance of the devices. You can check all the specifications of the smartphones that are part of this comparison below.

So for our comparison, I chose the Moto G5S Plus, Xiaomi Mi 5X, Lenovo K8 Note, Huawei Honor 6X, and Coolpad Cool Play 6. All these smartphones are around the same price point and target the budget smartphone buyers. If you are in the market to buy an affordable smartphone with a dual-camera setup, then this story is for you. One thing to note here is that the comparison here takes into account only the specifications of the smartphones and we are yet to do a full review to talk about the real world performances of these devices. You can check all the specifications of the smartphones that are part of this comparison below.

Conclusion

Comparing the specifications of the smartphones in this comparison, the hardware in almost all the devices is very similar to each other. No device stands apart from each other in terms of processor and the Dual-camera setup. However, comparing just the specifications of the smartphones does lead me to believe that Coolpad Cool Play 6 edges past the others. Mind you, I am purely speaking from the comparison chart above. The real world performance may be very different for the phone and we still have to test that.

The reason for this is because the device matches the competition in the base-line specifications but it does hold its own offering Snapdragon 653 and 6 GB RAM for a price of Rs 14,999 in comparison to Snapdragon 625 in G5S Plus and Mi 5X, Helio X23 in K8 Note and Kirin 655 in Honor 6X. The competition offers 4 GB RAM when compared to Cool Play 6. However, there is no option to expand storage on the Coolpad Cool Play 6.

Honor 6X is the only device that offers a variant with 6 GB RAM and it is priced at Rs 15,999. Cool Play 6 also offers the largest battery life with USB Type-C. Mi 5X is the only smartphone in the list that is expected to pack a USB Type-C port. One thing to note here is that almost all the devices in this range sport a camera setup where one camera sensor captures images in RGB while the second camera sensor captures images in monochrome mode.
