Xiaomi Mi 5 Pro sales starting on April 6

Unveiled at this year's Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, the Xiaomi Mi 5 went on sale in China earlier this month. However, of the three of its variants, only two (3GB/32GB and 3GB/64GB) were made available for purchase.

For those waiting for the launch of the Pro variant (4GB RAM and 128GB internal memory), here's some good news: the device will go on sale in China on April 6. In case you don't already know, the Huawei P9 and Meizu m3 note are already scheduled to be unveiled on the same day.

As for the Mi 5's international availability, Xiaomi's VP Hugo Barra has already said that the flagship will only be available in the company's core markets, so importing one might be the only chance for the western world.
