Xiaomi Mi 5s spotted on AnTuTu with a score of 164,002

Benchmarks, particularly unverified, pre-release benchmarks, can only be taken as a guideline as to a handset's real-world performance. We've seen many a powerful smartphone stutter and lag due to poor software and optimization in the past, so we can't get too carried away with the Mi 5s just yet. Still, in a year that has seen the Snapdragon 820 and 4 GB RAM established as the de facto flagship standard, it looks like the high-end specs race is being taken up a notch or two.
In essence, the Mi 5s seems a like-for-like alternative to the new LeEco Le Pro 3, though it'll be interesting to see whether Xiaomi plans to match the sub-$300 price point of its rival.
The Mi 5s will likely grace us with its presence in a week's time, with September 27th having been touted on numerous occasions as a launch date. We'll surely see a leak or ten before then, however, so stay tuned.
