Xiaomi Mi CC9



The Xiaomi Mi CC9 offers a balanced spec sheet with a 6.39-inch Super AMOLED display, Snapdragon 710 chipset and triple camera setup. Xiaomi claims its 32MP F/2.0 selfie camera is the best in its class. The display features a 1080 x 2340 resolution and sports a waterdrop notch and UD fingerprint scanner. The handset will debut with the new Mimoji animated avatars and a dedicated AI portrait mode for low light scenarios on the front cam.

The Mi CC9 features a dual-glass design with a metal frame in the middle. The back has an interesting light refracting finish which shifts color when hit by light. It weighs in at 179g and is 8.67mm thick. Around the back the device sports on a triple camera setup with a 48MP F/1.8 main camera, 8MP ultrawide unit and a 2MP depth sensor.

The chipset inside the Mi CC9 is the Snapdragon 710 paired with 6 or 8 GB RAM and 64/128GB storage expandable via microSD. Unsurprisingly the phone runs on Android Pie with MIUI 10 on top. The battery comes in at 4,030mAh and supports 18W fast charging. Other notable features include a 3.5mm headphones jack, NFC and an IR port.
