Xiaomi Mi Note 5 expected to launch along with the Mi 8 on May 31

We are a few days away from the Xiaomi’s big launch on May 31. Xiaomi hasn’t confirmed anything on the products launching at the event but we are getting a bunch of leaks and rumors about the launch of the Mi 8. Today, another leak has revealed that alongside the Mi 8, another phone dubbed as the Xiaomi Mi Note 5 could also be launched on May 31.

Xiaomi Mi Note 5 will be the successor to the Mi Note 3 which was launched last year in China. Xiaomi is already skipping Mi 7, so it is quite possible that they will also skip Mi Note 4. As number 4 is an unlucky number in China and manufacturers avoid to use number 4 in model numbers. OnePlus also skipped the OnePlus 4 and launched the OnePlus 5 instead.

Coming to the leaked specifications of the Mi Note 5, the marketing material of the phone is making rounds on the Chinese social media. The smartphone is said to be featuring a 5.99 inches Full HD+ display. The smartphone will be coming with a Full Screen 2.0 design, the design will be inherited from the Mi Note lineup with a curved display.
