We left a few minutes ago with thearticle in which the launch of Xiaomi Mi 9 was officially confirmed, set precisely the 20 February. Confirmation of the presence of the company emerges from the company teaser triple rear camera but the design of the front still remains wrapped in mystery. And instead the Chinese serial leakers, on the well known social of Weibo microblogging, have removed any doubt about what will be Xiaomi Mi 9, which in my opinion will not shine for innovation.
In fact, from the images above we can see how the back is clearly inspired by materials and shapes to the former top of the Mi 6 range, although it is clear the innovative (at least for Xiaomi) triple camera on the rear and theabsence of the fingerprint sensor that will be implemented on the display. To judge the photo, the back seems to adopt the ceramic and then the wireless charging it could be a further welcome presence among the fetaure offered by Mi 9. Definitely curved lines, a soap bar design that could be inconvenient in the daily grip of the device.
Here's a preview of how the Xiaomi Mi 9 is done
But let's get to the point, namely the front of Xiaomi Mi 9, which on balance does not surprise. In fact it seems identical to what we saw on Redmi Note 7, so much so that even the side frames do not seem so thin. Probably the image is a fake, or maybe not, because in recent times the OEM of Lei Jun seems to have lost inspiration and therefore most likely the design of Redmi Note 7 will be the basis of many devices of the company for this 2019 .
At any rate no full screen, as it will be a little notch to drop to stop the spell, and therefore most likely the problem related to the notification icons will be a cross that Xiaomi Mi 9 inherits from previous models. However, note the presence of the Play Store and Google search bar, which could suggest the debut of a Global version immediately. The model in question, however, seems to mount a China Stable ROM based on MIUI 10.0.1.1 running on 6 GB GB RAM and 128 GB storage hardware powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 @2.84GHz SoC.
It is not clear then whether it will be Android 9 Pie to animate the interface of Mi 9 or if we will find the good old Android Oreo, but I reiterate the presence of the Play Store, which could outline the opening of the company to Google services, base already present on Mi Mix 3 and that this time could be installed by default even on Chinese ROM. Do you like the design of the new Xiaomi Mi 9? To me for nothing ...
For the record, the one in the photos seems to be based on Oreo, note after Miui 10.0.1.1 (0—-)
The design is certainly not innovative, it almost seems to see a Samsung, but it is also true that it is now increasingly difficult to be innovative on that front. I would say that the most interesting thing for us Xiaomi fans will be to see how much a device that should mount Snapdragon 855, triple camera, sensor under display will cost ... especially to us Europeans.
What the hell are you saying Luca. Which samsung has the waterdrop notch? Which samsung should it look like?
Just because it has 3 cameras placed like the A7?
Obviously I was referring to the overall design of the body not to the hardware .....
to 499 (8 / 256) under wrong to write 😉
at 299 (8/256) I would consider it, even if I want to see well RedMiNote7 PRO 6/128 with Sony sensor and unlock with under-screen fingerprint, if it were at 250, it would put me in "difficulty" of choice 🙂
