Xiaomi Mi 9 Specs, Features, Price
Just 10 months after the Mi 8 launch, Xiaomi has announced its successor: the Xiaomi Mi 9. While no one could ever say Xiaomi doesn’t put out enough phones, a few things make the Mi 9 stand out: it adds a third camera to the back, has some impressive new charging tech, and it’s among the first phones to launch with the Snapdragon 855 mobile platform. This is the Xiaomi Mi 9 hands-on.
Xiaomi Mi 9 will be available in atleast two alterations of Xiaomi Mi 9 SE and maybe the Mi 9 Explorer Edition. But their existence isn't confirmed yet.
The Mi 9 has a dedicated voice assistant button. In China it will call up XiaoAI, but in global markets it will default to Google Assistant. If Assistant isn’t your preferred assistant you can easily remap it to whatever you want. Xiaomi also lets you assign some additional shortcuts to this key.

Final thoughts
What the Xiaomi Mi 9 lacks in superfluous “gimmicks” it makes up for in functional features we can all appreciate. Adding a third camera and introducing faster charging tech is a great addition to the Mi family. While it may not be the most attention-seeking choice among some aggressive competition, the Mi 9’s unassuming list of attributes is sure to still win over plenty of fans.
The Xiaomi Mi 9 price starts at 1,999 yuan (~$297) for the SE version with 6GB/64GB and 2,999 yuan (~$446) for the 6GB/128GB variant. The version with 8GB/128GB costs 3,299 yuan (~$491) and the Transparent Edition Mi 9 with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage will set you back 3,999 yuan (~$595). Also, stay tuned for MWC 2019, when Xiaomi will announce global markets for the Mi 9 and local pricing, as well as some 5G news you will want to know about.
Hit the comments and let us know your thoughts on the Xiaomi Mi 9. Would you buy the Transparent Edition if it came to your local market?
Xiaomi smartphones are all budget phones with good quality and excellent performance.
