Under the hood there's a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chip coupled with 4GB RAM and 64GB memory.
Now at the moment MI 5X is running MIUI 8 based on Android Nougat 7.1.1 but it will be getting MIUI 9 update in the coming weeks.

Handset supports 4G with VoLTE, Dual Band WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth. Xiaomi Mi 5X is using a USB Type C port and the non-removable 3080 mAh battery which is a letdown, considering they have managed to pack in a 4000mAh battery in the similar form factor earlier.

The Mi 5X goes on sale in China in the first week of August for a price tag of 1499 Yuan. It would be interesting to see if Xiaomi announces this product in India.
