After confirming new holographic display technology
and Snapdragon 855 SoC for the flagship Mi 9 smartphone earlier this week,
ahead of February 20 announcement, today Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun has confirmed the
camera specifications of the smartphone.
Xiaomi Mi 9 camera specifications
- 48-megapixel main camera with f/1.75 aperture, 6P lens, 1/2.0″ Sony IMX586 sensor, 0.8μm pixel size, 4-in-1 pixel binning

Xiaomi co-founder Bin Lin also shared a new camera
sample from the 16-megapixel ultra-wide angle lens and said that it has
implemented anti-distortion algorithm for achieving a perfect shot.
Earlier images revealed a camera bump. Now the
company has confirmed that the camera part has 243 square millimeters of
Sapphire Glass protection as well as stainless steel frame wrapped around the
area to protect these lenses form scratches.
The chin of Mi 9 is just 3.6mm wide, making it 40%
narrower than the Mi 8, which the company says is possible due to improved
internal design.
