There have been reports that Xiaomi’s Mi CC9 series
will be getting a new member this month. Honestly, we think Xiaomi has released more than enough smartphones this year.
The phone is said to be called the Mi CC9 Pro and its alleged specs and price
have leaked.
The source of the leak is Sudhanshu Ambhore
(@sudhanshu1414). Although he doesn’t specifically state which device it is,
the spec of the primary camera corresponds to what we have heard about the Mi
CC9 Pro.
The phone will have a 6.4-inch FHD+ AMOLED display
with a waterdrop notch and an in-display fingerprint scanner. It will be
powered by the Snapdragon 730G processor, the same chipset inside the Realme
X2. There will be 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. There is no mention of other
configurations, so we may be getting a single variant.
The selling point of the Mi CC9 Pro will be its
cameras. There will be three sensors on the rear with the primary one being a
108MP camera, the same one as the Mi MIX Alpha. The phone will also have a 13MP
ultrawide angle camera and an 8MP telephoto camera. Inside the notch will be a
32MP camera.
Xiaomi will ship the Mi CC9 Pro with a 4000mAh
battery with support for 20W+ fast charging (most likely 27W fast charging like
that of the Mi 9). It will run Android 10 out of the box, have NFC, and an IR
blaster. The leak also mentions the phone weighs 180 grams. The Mi CC9 Pro will not be cheap.
It will sell for ¥ 2599 (US$ 367), much
higher than the Realme X2 which has a price tag of ¥ 1899 (US$ 268) for its 8GB +
128GB version.
Xiaomi is yet to announce when the phone will launch
but we expect a date will be revealed next week.
