So far, this leaked render cannot be confirmed as yet, although having a physical home button does make plenty of sense considering how certain whispers on the grapevine do mention the presence of a fingerprint scanner that is located on the front segment of the smartphone.
The Xiaomi Mi 5 is tipped to be made official some time in 2016, where there are report which point to a January 21 unveiling as well as a February roll out – although these should always be taken with more than just a grain of salt, knowing how such rumors could just be “placeholder” information for the time being. Whatever the case is, remaining patient will most probably reveal everything else in due time, and there is also word that a Plus version of the device will be announced at the same time.
