As you can see from the point of view of computing power and graphics, there are not many differences, as all three equip the same SoC. Differences begin to appear in the displays, with Samsung opting for AMOLED technology and QHD resolution, LG who chose to use a QHD resolution LCD panel and Xiaomi that was "limited" to using a Full HD LCD panel.
Same speech in the photographic segment, with Samsung introducing the new Dual Pixel technology, LG introduced the dual camera and with Xiaomi introducing the 4 axle stabilizer.
In short, to draw the sums, there is no doubt that we are facing three smartphones of absolute level that will make their buyers happy. However, we can not noticed the selling price of the two (LG's G5 is still unknown). There are well 469 Euros of difference between the basic model of the Xiaomi Mi5 and the Samsung Galaxy S7 which, translated, means that with the same price (at the exchange) we could buy either 2,7 Xiaomi Mi5 or a Samsung Galaxy S7.
It is to be said however that in Europe Xiaomi Mi5 will not come officially but only through importers, so that the real selling price from our parts will not be 270 euro.
