History
There are many reasons for the delay in launching the fifth generation of xiaomi phones in 2015.First of all, Huawei's crackdown on Xiaomi was particularly severe in 2015. Therefore, Xiaomi needs to make a comeback through the release of mi 5.Secondly, Xiaomi has always stood on the market with low price and cost performance, but the price of the mi 5 is more than 2000 yuan, becoming the highest price in history, so Xiaomi want to reduce the price through further technology research and development.In addition, the Mi5 launched during the 2016 mobile world congress will certainly bring better exposure and higher consumer awareness of marketing strategies.

System and software
The factory system of Xiaomi Mi 5 is MIUI 7. This system gives full play to the advantages of Xiaomi Mi 5. However, when some applications are running in the background, a short pause is inevitable, but it does not affect the normal use. Compared with other android or apple phones, Xiaomi's phones are easier to install ROM and can change the name of SIM network at will.The Xiaomi Mi 5 features a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor.At the end of 2017, Xiaomi Mi 5 updated the available MIUI V9.1.1.0 with unique optimizations including a notification panel that can respond quickly, split screen or multi-window support, image search and improved performance and application processing. In late 2018, Xiaomi announced that after the last stable release of MIUI 10.2, there will be no more updates to MIUI on Xiaomi Mi 5 phones.

Design
The 5.15 "" mi 5 is indeed one of the most compact and lightweight flagships.It's 144.6 x 69.2 x 7.3 mm wide and 2 mm tall, but the hair is narrower and thinner than the 5.1 "Galaxy S7. The Mi 5 weighs just 129g - 23g lighter than the Galaxy S7 with a similar design. The Mi 5 has a familiar double glazing design with a silver frame.Both pieces are made from the latest Gorilla Glass 4 material.The rear glass bends around the long edges, while the front is completely flat. Xiaomi has set chamfered edges on the frame to complement the soft curve on the back, which works best in this combination. And the Mi 5 offers them.It also improves grip, enhances appearance and makes handling more comfortable. Monitors may look almost bezel-less, but they don't.A metal frame is a border, and it takes a while to get used to it when swiping a card, because most of the time people's thumbs scratch the metal and then seamlessly enter the screen.It wasn't unpleasant, but it wasn't common at first.

Marketing
Xiaomi's darkest hour came in the year before the Mi 5 went on sale. Xiaomi, China's leading smartphone maker, has endured a year of intense pressure from Huawei and Apple.Other Chinese smartphone giants, such as Vivo and Oppo, have made efforts in retail to stay out of the way.In this dilemma, Xiaomi Mi 5 is just a sharp tool to fight a battle of survival and keep Xiaomi's market share in China.In 2014, Xiaomi's share of the global smartphone market was only 5%, far less than Samsung's 26% and apple's 12%. Step by step, Xiaomi has progressed to become the biggest competitor to Huawei and Apple in China. Behind all this, Xiaomi's biggest effort has been to expand its market .In 2019, apple's sales declined, because China is a relatively large market with endless opportunities. However, Huawei technologies and Xiaomi have achieved good results in China in recent years, so Xiaomi has put considerable pressure on Apple.
