The new version large format Mi5s of Xiaomi is no longer the Samsung Galaxy S7 in the line of sight. With its diagonal of 5.7 inches, the Mi5s More is more grand. In his viewfinder, the Huawei Mate 9, in the absence of the deceased in Note 7. On paper, the device is armed. Snapdragon 821 (the last processor high-end of Qualcomm), 4 or 6 Gb of RAM, 64 or 128 Gb of storage (depending on the version) and… a double photo sensor. A paraphernalia that allows him to threaten his rival for… 370 euros less (or 530 euros less than the Note 7, it was still marketed !). We tested here the 64 Gb version with 4 Gb of ram Mi5s More, marketed 330 euros in Chinadroid.fr who loaned us this copy.

The Mi5s, the originality in the least
It’s been several years that Xiaomi no longer playing the role of the ersatz Apple. The chinese manufacturer knows how to manufacture, but also knows how to draw. The proof with the Xiaomi Mi5 and Mi5s, as beautiful as the originals. Unfortunately, the Mi5s Most do not look like really and lose some of their originality. The manufacturer was required to integrate a second sensor – monochrome – at the back of the smartphone. To not stop in so good way, it has also placed the fingerprint sensor in this combination, itself disposed to the vertical. Result, we are left with a “Xiaomi Matte 9″ which only stands out by its brushed-metal.

After mourning the loss of this creativity has disappeared (or put between parentheses), it is appreciated all the same finishes of the device, the thickness of which does not exceed 8 mm. One finds a shell that is curved, which allows you to have an excellent grip. On the slices, the effect bevelled is successful. We would have simply seen the power buttons and volume controls are placed a few millimetres lower. The screen is surrounded by two thin white stripes and occupies a large part of the height of the front facade, thanks to the disappearance of the physical button. The jack resides on the top slice. As expected now, a port USB Type-C allows you to recharge the device.
display impressive
In 2017, it seems that the chinese manufacturers are starting to admit that there is no need to display a 2K resolution to do things right, even on a large diagonal. It can be assumed that they were suspicious already, but that balance has taken on a marketing strategy that is to show that it has the larger – resolution, of course. The slab Full HD and its 5.7-inch we offer, therefore, a resolution of 386 ppi, far from those offered by the screens, Quad-HD. It is all the same more than on Mate 9, and its 373 ppi, also Full HD but with a screen of 5.9 inches.

once lit, the tile impresses with its display quality. To make it simple, the results of the measurements are among the most impressive of the market, especially for the IPS. The contrast ratio rises to 2141:1 and the brightness shoots up to 728 cd/m2. Numbers that can ensure excellent visual comfort, in any situation.
We found the interface MIUI 8.1, the overlayer signed Xiaomi based on Android 6.0.1. Among the points significant, the possibilities of customizing pushed to the extreme. For example, we can choose to display or not display the notification icons on the sides of the time, in the top left of the screen. Practice if you don’t like the visual pollution. The Second Space is always present and allows you to create a secondary session when one wants to lend his camera. We also found some through MIUI, such as the installation of too many applications in which it is impossible to separate.

Perfect for gaming
On the version that we have had in the hands – 4 Gb of RAM, 64 Gb of storage, we haven’t encountered any slowdown at all, even while juggling between many applications. As on the Xiaomi Mi5s, the fingerprint sensor is extremely sharp, with few misfires.

unsurprisingly, it has this fluidity in overall Snapdragon 821, which is also a delight for the game. After a small passage through Epic Citadel (60 fps) and AnTuTu 6 (130 000 points against 117 000 for the Huawei Mate 9), we have spent a long time on our usual games (Riptide GP, Real Racing 3), again without the slightest hitch and without a block heater. As can be a OnePlus 3T, the Xiaomi Mi5s Most is ideal for the game.

Despite its power and large screen, the Mi5s More is not a bottomless pit of energy. Like its little brother, it has passed our tests in a way very honourable. When our measure of self-purpose, it will be turned off after 9: 10. It is less well that the Mate 9 (10.20 am), but enough to hold the day with peace of mind. Thanks to the presence of the Snapdragon 821, the device is compatible with the fast charging technology Quick Charge 3.0.

The second sensor is not everything
offering a version More in large size and equipped with two sensors photos : hard to tell where Xiaomi has been able to draw this amazing idea, but the option is interesting. In place of the sensor 13 megapixel camera of the Mi5s, there are two sensors 12 megapixels. As in Huawei, one is monochrome and it is supposed to do pass more light. Unfortunately, this is disappointing.

under good conditions, the result is at the border of the correct and good, with colours quite natural. But the level of detail is less good than on the Mi5s, with a smoothing that is not in the lace. The Stereo mode – which activates the second sensor – allows you to recover some details in the dark areas, with a contrast less supported. In low light, it is simply mediocre. The colors are bland and stereotypes lack of exposure.

This result was not unforeseeable. If the Mi5s Most benefits from the two sensors, the size of the pixels goes from 1.56 micron to 1.12 micron. Which means you get less light.. and to lose what one is supposed to win with the sensor monochrome. There has to see our ranking of the best smartphones on the photo to see that the dual sensor is not necessarily the panacea. As on the Matt 9, and on the Huawei P9, one benefits, however, is a black-and-white, very friendly.

Xiaomi Mi5s More
The Xiaomi Mi5s touched the finger to perfection, the Plus version does not do it better. It even makes a little less well. Ambitious, the dual-sensor camera is finally more punitive than anything else. In spite of everything, the Xiaomi Mi5s More, with its superb screen, great power and endurance satisfactory remains an excellent deal for a price of 330 euros. At this price, it can compete with the very successful Matt 9 Huawei. But it will have to do with a recurrent fault : the non-compatibility with the 4G frequencies in the 800 MHz band used mainly at SFR.
