The most affordable Snapdragon 820 smartphone in Malaysia just got cheaper. The Xiaomi Mi 5 which was originally priced at RM1,549 is now slashed to RM1,399. The price cut is expected since Xiaomi had recently announced a newer Mi 5s in China.

It also gets an infra-red blaster, WiFi 802.11ac support, NFC and Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity. Over at the front, it also gets a home button which doubles up as a fingerprint sensor.
