Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun has published the first official
images of the Mi 9, including a short video that shows off the iridescent back
that shifts between purple, blue and green, depending on how the light hits it. Feast your eyes on these static
images that only show the back and the triple camera – new on the Mi series.
The design was done by the same person that did the Mi 6.
The Xiaomi Mi 9 will be unveiled on February 20
(same day as the Galaxy S10). As part of the teaser campaign, Xiaomi has posted
sample photos from the 48MP camera and hinted at fast charging (rumors say
32W).
Lei Jun previously suggested the flagship will have
faster charging than the Redmi Note 7’s 18W, so we expect to see 27W, if the
listing from 3C is correct. Other expected specs are Snapdragon 855 chipset
with the X24 modem. RAM+storage would start from 6/128 GB and the price will
allegedly be CNY 2,999 or US$ 436/€ 383.
