At the wake of the Mi A1 craze, suddenly drops a special edition color for Mi 5X, also know as the Mi A1 in China. Now, Mi 5X is the Mi A1 variant that was first released in China with a MIUI system as opposed to Mi A1 with an Android One system, wherein Google is not allowed to be used in China due to government regulations.
The red color for the Mi 5X was finally born, making it the first ever red colored phone for Xiaomi. Lets say that it was lifted again from Apple wherein they anually release a special RED edition of the Iphone in order to collect funds in support for the campaign against HIV/AIDS in Eight African countries. Im not sure if there is any meaning for the Red Mi 5X for Xiaomi, but as far as I am concerned, its just a new color release for this awesome phone.

Whats in the Box:
For the first time in history, Xiaomi included a Screen Protector Film inside the Box.
As per my observation, I loved the way the Red was deployed on the Mi 5X, this is due to the blend of the phone color to the theme of black bezel in front which was a perfect combination. Acquiring this unit was quite difficult as it was out of stock in the first few minutes of release, lucky me I was able to snag one on that very same day Nove 4 2017.
