Finally, the phone comes with MIUI 11.

Recently, we reported the detailed characteristics of a very curious Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro with a Penta camera (including a 108-megapixel sensor). which will announce on November 5 (and it seems that it will be released on the international market on the 15th under the name Mi Note 10). The company has already revealed details about camera sensors. A dual optical stabilization system, a Snapdragon 730G
chip, a 5260 mAh battery with fast 30-watt charging, an on-screen fingerprint sensor and much more.

Now the manufacturer decided to provide additional details about the device. For example, it will be the first smartphone in the world on which an ultra-thin sub-screen fingerprint scanner installed, thereby increasing the accuracy and sensitivity of the sensor. Unlocking the device will be easier even at low temperatures with dry fingers.

Secondly, the device equipped with NFC support, so fans who use a smartphone to payment can take a closer look at this decision. Another notable plus is the integration of an infrared emitter at the top for controlling household appliances using the Mi Remote app.

Xiaomi CC9 Pro - one of the best camera phones of 2019

Now in China, the official Xiaomi event is in full swing, at which the company announces its new products. And the most important such product was the Xiaomi CC9 Pro.

This model does not have a flagship platform (although the Snapdragon 730G is good for the middle segment. It’s not the Snapdragon 855 Plus), but it has a camera and a super accumulator, and in general, the other parameters are well balanced.

In general, all the characteristics of the camera became known last week. But since the smartphone is not the most ordinary, it makes sense to repeat them. The main sensor of the CC9 Pro camera is the 108 megapixel S5KHMX. It connected to an aperture lens with an aperture of F / 1.69. There is also a module for portrait shooting (a 12-megapixel sensor and a lens with a focal length of 50 mm). A module for macro shooting (minimum focusing distance is 1.5 cm), a module with an ultra-wide lens (with a viewing angle of 117 °). And a resolution sensor of 20 MP, as well as a module with a telephoto lens - it provides a 10x hybrid optical zoom. There is also a 50x digital, but the first one, providing the best quality, should be enough for everyday situations.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Specification:

Moreover, Xiaomi focuses on audio capabilities: the device. For example, equipped with a large acoustic camera with a volume of one cubic centimeter. Due to which the sound volume promises to be twice as high as in the previous generation. Besides, the device has retained the traditional 3.5 mm audio jack and supports high-quality Hi-Res sound.

Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro is one of the most durable smartphones, and largely thanks to the frame around the display, which is made of the proven aluminium alloy of the 7000 series. The display has a U-shaped neckline, and although it can significantly reduce the frame, because of this design, the flagship can be confused with an inexpensive model of the brand.

The first Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro camera test, the live photo of the smartphone contains new details

The camera boasts a zoom

The famous insider under the nickname Xiaomishka published a video in which Xiaomi for the first time demonstrates the zoom capabilities of the 108-megapixel camera of its new smartphones.

A photo was also re-published with the insides of the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro, this time in higher resolution. Now you can well consider the individual Penta camera modules and more. For example, in the photo, you can see that the battery capacity is indeed 5170 mAh, as previously reported. It is also seen that the main module with a resolution of 108 megapixels, which is noticeably larger than the rest, will be located third from above.

As for the video, we are shown testing a camera with varying degrees of approximation and detailing of images.

It’s not entirely clear which smartphone is shown in the video, so the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro and Xiaomi Mi Note 10 will get a camera with a resolution of 108 megapixels, but they will look the same, according to rumors.

The announcement date of Xiaomi Mi Note 10 is not reported, but it is known that Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro will be presented on November 5.

Note! The equipment and some specifications of the Mi 9 Pro may vary depending on the region.

The smartphone appears under catalog number M1910F4E. It built on a single-chip platform Snapdragon 730G. And endowed with an AMOLED screen with a diagonal of 6.47 inches with a resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels. Mi CC9 Pro has three memory configurations: 6/64 GB, 8/128 GB, and 12/256 GB.

Certification bodies mention only two image sensors - with a resolution of 108 and 32 megapixels. But we already know all the details about the camera model. Mi CC9 Pro did not get support for memory cards and Android 10 (although the corresponding update for this model will not be delayed). But it does have an IR emitter and a 5170 mAh battery.

Dimensions and weight of the model - 157.8 x 74.2 x 9.67 mm and 208 grams. Mi CC9 Pro will be officially unveiled on November 5th.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Design

MICC 9 attacks us for being too familiar. The only thing that comes out is the extraordinary balance between the curves of the front and rear windows.

In addition, if we have ever seen, this is an ordinary glass sandwich construction. The MiC9 has 5 panels in the front and back of the Gorilla Glass, all covered in a thin strip of an aluminum frame.
All keys are located to the right of the frame above, as well as a dual SIM tray. At the top, there is a regular IR blaster, and at the bottom - everything - a speaker, a USB-C port, a microphone, and an audio jack.

We have a version of Aurora Green here, but frankly, in 1/3 of the time, it began to look blue, not green. This is a really attractive color and a very interesting dynamic style under the surface.

The back is incredibly slippery, but its sides are not, and it is easy to handle with one hand, even if it is heavy (208 grams).

Cameras take up a lot of space at the back of the phone, so we often inadvertently find that the bottom two fingers are covered by their fingers. But we think you can get used to it on time.

Although it is heavy, the MICC9 Pro is not too heavy, and we find its curves very attractive. This is definitely one of the best smartphones, and we really want it to have the best water resistance to make the whole package even better.

Display

The MICC 9 Pro screen has a 6.47-inch emulsion panel with curved edges, rounded corners, and a small waterproof shape for a 32-megapixel selfie camera.

The rotating front glass (3D-display, as Xiaomi, calls it) influenced the screen - accidentally there were problems with contacts. The bailout works great, and the camera app had problems. It is difficult to make this image without a case because you do not need to try to hide the lenses or touch the edges of the screen.
