However, there is no confirmation or information related to the new products. Most people hope and believe it is the flagship Xiaomi Mi5 while others think it is the Xiaomi’s Windows 10 Tablet Mi Pad 2, which has been rumored for weeks.

Previously, Xiaomi was reported to be preparing for the Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 launch on September, quite at the same time as Xiaomi Mi4c launch. But, that did not happen. As a result, it is not strange at all if the one Xiaomi wants to introduce on October 19 is the tablet Mi Pad 2 (which was seen in the Chinese 3C Quality Certification Center with the model number 2015716). Rumor has it that Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 specs include a 14-nm Intel processor, providing enough power to run Windows 10), 4GB RAM and a 13MP rear camera. The display is said to measure 10 inches plus Quad HD resolution.

On the other hand, there is another possibility that Xiaomi Mi5 will see the light on October 19. In August, we were informed the Xiaomi Mi5 specs got 73,075 Antutu points. Pretty impressive! This can be understood easily because many sources claimed Xiaomi Mi5 would boast the coming powerful Snapdragon 820 or MediaTek Helio X20 chip. If Mi5 debuts this month, we guess it has to be the Helio X20 as it is until early 2016 that Qualcomm will push out the Snapdragon 820 to OEMs.

For other Xiaomi Mi5 specs, it is still anticipated to come with a 5.3-inch Quad HD display, 4GB RAM paired with 16GB or 64GB of internal storage. Its camera combo consists of a 16MP shooter with LED flash and OIS support. In addition, a 3,030mAh battery and a fingerprint sensor will also be on-board.

In terms of Xiaomi Mi5 price, the device will cost 1.999 CNY (about RM1,320 or 316 USD). Actually, this seems not very expensive for a smartphone like Xiaomi Mi5, right?!

In conclusion, we should wait a bit more to see what will happen on October 19, 2015. Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 or Xiaomi Mi5? We’ll update you later!
