Unofficial renders of the Xiaomi Mi 9 have hit the
web and while they are not the usual CAD-based affair, they hit all the key
points from the rumors so far. Starting from the back, there’s a triple camera with a 48MP main
module. The other two reportedly have 18MP and 8MP sensors.
Going to the front, the screen is expected to have a
6.4” diagonal and a teardrop notch (though probably not as small as depicted
here). The Mi 9 will most likely be powered by a Snapdragon 855 chipset and
will feature very fast charging.
But there could be two devices: M1902F1T/A and
MI1903F2A. The latter is likely the Xiaomi Mi 9 SE (the four digits are
year/month, next two symbols are device class and, finally, the carrier). Analysts are predicting that the
Mi 9 SE will have a 6.0” screen and use the Snapdragon 7150 chipset (an S710
successor).
Considering that the Mi 8 was announced in May last
year, the Mi 9 generation is likely still months away. Xiaomi does have an
event planned for the MWC, but that will likely be for the 5G version of the Mi
Mix 3.
