Xiaomi has officially unveiled their latest flagship smartphone, the Xiaomi Mi 5. Aside from the killer specs and premium build, it also boasts a 16MP camera with 4-axis image stabilization. And based on their tests, it performed better than Apple’s iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S plus.

During the announcement, Hugo Barra explained that the Xiaomi Mi 5 features 4-axis optical image stabilization which consists of Latitudinal + Longitudinal image stabilization to reduce shakes in close shots, and Transversal image stabilization to correct movement in far shots. Take a look at the video below to see it in action.
