The Xiaomi brand has somehow made a miraculous breakthrough within the South Asian smartphone market dating several years back due to their brand’s refreshing and exciting take on the creative design of Android smartphones while at the same time debuting a solid lineup of impressive gadgets that exceeded their target audience’s very expectations. As Xiaomi gradually climbs up the hill in retaining its flourishing reputation in the South Asia region while spreading its influence to other parts of the world, their latest entry, also known as the Xiaomi Mi CC9, has loyal fans from various parts of the world to excitingly anticipate the promising prospect of what Xiaomi’s latest entry has to offer. The Xiaomi Mi CC9 comes in multiple variation of attractive color spectrums which are guaranteed to appeal to its target audience’s eyes. The Xiaomi Mi CC9 comes in finely tuned colors that resonate resoundingly in accordance to their given names such as Night Prince which accentuates the alluring mystery of the color black whereas White Lover embodies the innocence of lustrous auroral white on the Xiaomi Mi CC9. What serves as the center of attention the most is undoubtedly the Blue Planet color option which encases the Xiaomi Mi CC9 in an astral-like projection of deep planetary blue that glimmers endlessly under the reflection of light. These color options will definitely be the center of attention for many millennials due to their ever glowing shine and luster. Aside from appealing aesthetics to capture the audience’s attention, the Xiaomi Mi CC9 comes equipped with components that are not too shabby at all. Running on an Operating System (OS) of Android 9.0 Pie, the Xiaomi Mi CC9 employs the assistance of a Qualcomm SDM710 Snapdragon 710 to power itself up into completion. The Snapdragon 710 is a multi-core Qualcomm AI Engine designed to deliver up to twice the overall improvements for device applications that are programmed with an AI algorithm. It also features the 14-bit Qualcomm Spectra 250 ISP technology, which is an engineered feature integrated within the Snapdragon 710, which supports still image captures for the Xiaomi Mi CC9’s camera along with several other quirks which promote zero shutter lag and motion compensated temporal filtering. The Snapdragon 710 is also integrated with the Game Turbo 2.0 technology, which empowers mobile gaming to perform at an accelerated and smoother pace. This particular Game Turbo 2.0 technology is backed with the support of Xiaomi’s very own Mi Turbo technology, in which it works as a performance booster which elevates mobile gaming experience to a whole stress-free and enjoyable level.

In summary, Xiaomi Mi CC9e is a bit regrettable because its screen resolution is not high, but as a product with a price of only 1299 yuan, it has the same fingerprint recognition, camera ability and large battery as the Xiaomi Mi CC9. At the same time, it is not an easy task to control costs.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition front camera review
Source: DxOMark English Archive.org version
Overall image quality from the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition’s front camera doesn’t live up to the excellent results we observed from its rear camera. For Xiaomi to challenge devices toward the top of our rankings, it will need improvements in exposure for both wider dynamic range and accuracy of dark skin tones; greater depth of field for sharper backgrounds and faces at long distances; and more consistent results for color. That all said, the Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition does boast some good strengths for selfies, including a strong bokeh rendering with generally good subject isolation when shooting in Portrait mode.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition Audio review
Source: DxOMark English Archive.org version
While the Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition is a formidable competitor in the camera field, its overall Audio score of 54 sends it straight to the back of the classroom. Its most notable flaw is of course the single speaker placed at the bottom left of the device, which not only creates an unnatural experience when playing back music and movies, but can also be problematic when playing games. Other issues, such as noticeable lack of bass, inverted stereo recording, and high distortion at maximum volume, also pile up on the negative side.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro Review
Source: Yugatech English Archive.org version
Overall, the Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro is an impressive premium mid-range device. It’s got a massive battery life, performance is smooth-sailing, moderately good display, exquisite design and build, and let’s face it, Xiaomi’s penta-camera novelty delivered quality images. It might have a slight heft and weight to it, the camera bump is bulky, the speaker isn’t the greatest, but those are pretty much minor issues compared to the pros of the device.

Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena English Archive.org version
The Xiaomi Mi CC9 is shaping up to be an impressive device. Its pricing is even more intriguing as it costs only 2,800 Chinese Yuan for 6/128GB (around 350 euros or 400 US dollars). The only real caveat is that the Mi CC9 Pro will only be sold in China for the time being. There are rumors about an international launch under a different name, but we'll have to wait to learn more about that.
