Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro - User Reviews

  • xiaomi is the best of all chinese brand mobiles.

  • I think this is the phone for me, beautiful P30 pro look a like, SD730 and FHD+ is more then enough for me, since i dont game. Great camera and big battery. Thats all i need.

  • Is 108MP necessary or just a show off? This isn't about "necessity", the hardware is available and Xiaomi is giving people these smartphones with these type of sensors. What you can do with 108MP camera sensor? Whenever you're looking on these type of sensors, don't just look on the MP, look at the sensor size. These sensors can give users "natural" portrait not because of MP but because as of now, this is the biggest sensor available and is viable currently (as of writing) at this pricepoint. Try doing natural portrait on 16MP 1/2.66" sensor. There were also lots of other uses for this, I won't feed all to you, Google is your friend. 108MP is the "real" resolution of the sensor but it alone only capture B&W shots. Bayer filter is added with a pattern of 4:1 ratio for color which lowers the colored picture to 27MP. All the pixels are there for 108MP shot but achieving it needs processing of 4:1 27MP Bayer filter design to 1:1 108MP colored picture. Again, all the pixels needed are there, it's not like interpolation that create more pixels from non-existent one. There more for you to learn about photography, if you're really into that, there were lots of tutorials in Google and Youtube. The 108MP Quad Bayer sensor design is a great innovation on smartphones, including it on a phone is a huge plus and at this price point, the question of "Is it necessary?" could be easily countered by "Why not?".

  • Finaly a king of the jungle. With its battery camera and other specs and pricing this is the very easy winner of the year as a best flagship device.

  • you are rightthey are just fooling us honestly s7 edge and later on since 2017 any phone which came claiming bigger mega pixels 10 cameras at the back and so on the trend continues but i have seen all are of same resolution and same picture quality.

  • waiting for it mi have a best phones and price

  • 108mp truly but almost time used 27mp.

  • Does it have dual band GPS L1 + L2 ?

  • As long as the lens is big, it can capture the detail. That's why the S11 should come on top in the quality tests because unlike Xiaomi, it'll have a bigger lens with the megapixels.

  • Some people prefer having a better camera system because they want to see a ghost when taking a photo. A higher MP allows that because it has a greater photo detail.

  • some question: (English is not my native language!!) is it necessary to have 108MP camera? or it's just show off? what you can do with 108MP camera that you can't with 16MP in personal use? (whereas the quality of phone camera is not very good to use as professional art or industrial use is this real 108MP or it's just a software trick? how we can have 108MP sensor in small phone while we don't have in real full frame SLR?

  • Really? Which stores were you referring to? Thanks in advance.

  • DXOMARK Score 121 can be trusted?

  • It's indeed a great pack (the design, camera set-up, storage and what's not) But I for one was looking forward to seeing a screen size of not less that 6.7 to 6.9. That'd have completed the job

  • Yeah u can see it from the specs.

  • Someone know if there is the b7 on the cc9 pro ? because some webistes saying there is none but other ones are saying there is. So someone knows where i can find this info with 100% trust (like xiaomi source)

  • Wow great opinion

  • can it shoot 1080p 120/240fps on its wide and telephoto lens?

  • DXO MARK is nonsense. The whole score is a weighted average of many parameters. For example, if phone has no (or limited) optical zoom, it will get a low score simply because of limited zoom. Does it mean that camera is bad? No. Also, comparison is based on Auto settings which are not ideal. In most cases, you can get better results by using manual mode (assuming you know what you are doing). Most importantly, look at the color accuracy - are colors the same in real life and in the pictures? Most smartphones can't reproduce colors, and have fake (distorted) colors, which are artificial and oversaturated. The true art of photography is to reproduce objects as they appear in real life rather than fake them.

  • in other online stores...lowest price now 417euro for 6/128 cc9 pro price will down more...417euro in starting days of release it so good best score main camera in dxo mark with lowest price you can find

  • this phone in DXO MARK have better score than IPHONE 11 PRO MAX with more than 1200$ even better than GALAXY NOTE 10+ & HAVE EQUAL SCORE WITH MATE 30 PRO It's really commendable

  • Everything in this phone is breathtaking...but I am disappointed by it's processer which is 730G only ..it would be best mobile if it comes with Snapdragon 855+ processor..

  • For everyone who's interested in this model, the news is that Xiaomi just launched the Mi Note 10 yesterday, which is the global version of CC9 Pro. With pretty much the same specs and features (except the 6GB RAM + 128GB ROM storage), it's $609 USD / 550 Euro. To be honest, I've always been a fan of Xiaomi. BUT, if you can't get over the price like me, there's a time limited deal on Gearbest that's like $499 USD now. Hope that helps.

  • No, it doesn't. Although it supports a similar software feature that the panel emits leght at the edges (that's possible as it has an amoled panel, so it only lights up the pixels it wants).

  • Does this phone have any physical LED notification light ?

  • The reason, Mi Note 10 is 6/128 GB..

  • Hi, Can global ROM be flashed on it? Being offered for $600/ 8/256 GB? Thanks.

  • Why dont have 855++..already using 845 can see different with 7 series or 6 series

  • 108 mp=12 mp Samsung - apple The processor is the worst thing in this mobile

  • 549 euro for the 128gb version 649 euro for the 256gb version hmm

  • can't

  • This phone only costs 400$ and has alot for that price dxomark maybe fake but it scored 121 points and I don't think xiaomi pays them Things it has Super AMOLED screen 5 cameras Snapdragon 730g 5260mAh battery 30 watt fast charging This phone is just great for average user If you want a gaming phone then this isn't the phone for u

  • so it is better to buy mi9 sd855 less than 400 usd

  • not everybody need top cpu+gpu on the market. a good midrange is all i need plus the other premium specs like rounded and big screen, good camera, ir, loud and quality sound, etc. I want price quality with a big accent on quality and xiaomi does that. When is going to be released globally?I can't wait. I was gonna wait for a big black friday discount on Oneplus 7T Pro but now with Mi Note 10 and maybe Pro at a good price lower of course than 7T's, I can't wait. I want it badly. I want it in Romania asap.

  • This is not a flagship phone. This is a camera phone by Xiaomi with a great camera. Phone is made for camera use only.

  • gsmarena, please make some clarifications. Is there going to be a Mi CC9 Pro Premium version too?it's confusing since everybody talk about Premium version too. Mi Note 10 is going to release the same - Premium and non Premium? Pro or non-Pro? Who knows more?

  • No sd 855+, no ufs 3, only 30 w fast charging, no 90 hz refreshed rate display. So the only thing good about this phone is just the camera and the battery and literally nothing else. This phone is just for camera people

  • Hi Guys Can i insert a micro sd card ? This is very important for me Because it has a dual sim thanks for replying Greets lee

  • No srerio speakers, dolby atmos only mono sound speaker

  • "Why should I buy it?" Because the moment a phone with better specs gets released, even if you don't need and will never use the better performance, you'll want that one instead and anything even slightly less will be deemed literally unusable by you. Are you going to use your phone constantly playing games that you need an 855 Plus SD chip, do you record videos and take photos nonstop that you need immense storage? Do you go on 12 hour business flights every day and have such a tight schedule that you need the biggest battery size there is? Lastly, do you constantly do all three of those and more that you ABSOLUTELY REQUIRE the best?

  • In this phone there is no pop up camera, 855 SD processor, external sd card, USB-3, stylish design as CC9/ mi 9 lite, why should I buy it ??? 108 mp camera is not necessary all time. this type of big size phones are problem to carrying

  • I thought I will buy it but after seeing no external card slot then I have changed my mind. Rather I'll be waiting for the Samsung galaxy S11

  • Finally Rounded screen 💪💪💪 great phone xiaomi

  • outside China, this should be Xiaomi Mi A3 Pro

  • Wow all great spec, but where the dual spaeker dolby atmos?? Sadly.. I verry love dual spekaer, skip for this phone

  • Will it be officially sale in Indonesia?

  • please update specs of this phone thanks.

  • 400 eru for sd730 !?

  • it seems to be awesome. it is really awesome. I LOVE IT.

  • NO mSD Card Slot? At 400 or so Euros Price??? Hmm, that's a SERIOUS "CONS" for me.... Plus, the Screen Size is too much, making the dimensions of the Phone unnecessarily bulky/big. Tablets are 1 thing, and Phones are another.... You see, I do NOT have any Hip-Hop Style Trousers, to fit such big phones in my pockets.... I like carrying a Mobile Phone with me, NOT the Remote Control of my 42" Smart TV ;-)

  • BUT it is only chinese model no global version. Redmi Note 10 will be the global player Please release it soon so I can buy. Chinese model is never good for Europe with language, bands, and google services limitations. And slower OTA.

  • Xiaomi should work on better processing soon, paint like after effect if not in direct sunlight, a lot of noise in shadow or blurry low light, all can be better with just software upgrade. For now the output is best looking at 12mp, that is if you don't want to enjoy noise or loss of detail per pixel at 27mp.

  • So true!

  • This is actually cheaper than a80

  • Where is the wireless charging????

  • and still no microsd. But large internal memory. Microsd is way better (albeit slower) because if the phone breaks down you can extract the card and keep your personal data while the device is being repaired

  • hmmm,what I first saw as a picture and video didn't impress me much!top hardware, but....

  • 208 g phone? No belt will be able to keep trousers up with such a brick in the pocket.

  • OK, this is really amazing! 2 telephoto cameras, and a huge battery! One thing is sure: next year we will see phones with 2 telephoto cameras.

  • Isn't $400 a bit expensive for a SD730 phone?

  • Thickest phone of the year?!! Really

  • mi 9t Pro will have a bit better performance and its cheaper if you want you can wait for this phones price to drop and buy it at around Christmas or buy mi 9 t

  • Come on people! It has the same price of Galaxy A80 + Overclocked SD730G, Headphone Jack, Hi-Res audio, MUCH BIGGER battery, 256GB storage option, smaller and lighter body, AND of course, a flagship-level camera! isn't all of that enough for you?

  • That thickness is not for the battery but to accomodate the large camera sensor. Extra battery was added to utilize the thickness

  • Thickest smartphone of the year

  • Now i am out No sd card i wouldn't buy this phone

  • It Is Happenning.

  • I can't choose between this and mi 9t pro which is 335€ in my country. What u guys suggest?

  • I want to see battery endurance of this one ;)

  • no sd slot ... hard nope

  • for that price,its better to buy realme x2 pro...

  • 108mp pics but no sd card slot? Where is it going to store those ultra high quality photo's? My subscription won't be able to take the sync traffic.

  • my god whyyyyy 9.7mm thick ???? nobody needs this stupid 5200mah! 4200 would be enough!

  • i want 512GB rom & 6GB ram version

  • did samsung tell you this? they could just modify the image sensor for their next flagship like they did with their 48MP GM1 sensor which was upgraded to a 48MP sensor called GM2

  • if there is 50x zoom, it would be via hybrid zooming. It would be hard, if not impossible, to fit a 50x optical zoom lens in a thin smartphone body.

  • i think there will be another version with SD855+ and ufs 3.0 storage soon because In dxo mark website they mentioned all the photo and video taken by CC9 PRO PREMIUM EDITION but this one is cc9 pro

  • Good spec, but still don't like mi ui

  • where is gyro eis

  • Design inspired by Huawei.

  • Not IP68?

  • So the 50X zoom is not happening...

  • Does the new xiaomi Mi CC9 have global 4G LTE bands?

  • No ufs 3.0?

  • no card slot :(

  • The main reason this phone isn't using flagship SOC(855) is because Samsung's condition or agreement with Xiaomi. Because Samsung really doesn't want anyone else to bring a flagship before them with their 108MP sensor. And I think why Samsung is giving this sensor to Xiaomi in the first place is jut to minimize Huawei's dominance in China. It's just my guess.

  • The front of the smartphone looks like the galaxy note 10.

  • without dedicated memory card slot. No buy

  • And failing to score a point for selfie cam.

  • Congrats Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro for getting top score in Dxomark.

  • Ach nooo it is soo THICK, so close to 1 cm... I was looking forward for this release I could be the firt who buy this phone: Snap 730G is enought (I dont need stronger one), cameras looks amazing it has a cool features But the thickness is CRAZY - even Asus Zefone 6 is thinner with better HW and similar battery... It will be big loose for Xiaomi that thay choose battery (thickness) like that. 4000 mAh is enought I dont underatand step like this.

  • Its interesting since it has 2 tele cameras and if it's right then it's gonna be really helpful but im still waiting for moving lens to eliminate that quality loss when digital zooming

  • Except that it has OIS. Oh, and on two of the sensors.

  • The display section mentions that the phone can display 16M colors and is also HDR10+ capable. So, is the display's color depth 8bit or 10bit?

  • Then it's good that this is a Xiaomi and not a Huawei phone.

  • This isn't a Huawei phone.

  • It's using a 108 megapixel Samsung sensor; detail wise, the imx 586 can't compare.

  • Yet you can't use Google services on Huawei's phones, and their OS skin looks terrible.

  • Seems promising especially if they can keep it below $400

  • Need sdm 855, waiting new brand with this chipset and valuable price

  • I hope it will be thinner than it is rumored since 9.7mm thickness is quite a lot.

  • Not worse than Samsung making 4000mah battery with 15W

  • Huawei is better than the Xiaomi

  • xiaomi just confirm now that it has ois the 108mp and the 5x hybrid zoom

  • this phone need 48MP SONY IMX586 for selfie cam + wide angel + depth sensor YEAH.....FOR MODELS & Anyone WHO REALLY thinks he is handsome because MEITU BRANDS cares alot to BEAUTY & SELFIE not just using a 32mp selfie...todays other phones use it for selfie MEITU brands now rebranded to CC9 but must keep his ( originality & gentility )...must be stay unique

  • 30W charging for 5270mAh battery is a little bit slow. 40W will be enough then.

  • 5270Mah Battery,for that the thickness is okay..

  • 9.7 mm thickness

  • i have seen Gyro Eis on xiaomi Mi9,excellent.

  • Doesn't matter: notch, 12 grams heavier than Mi 9 Pro Awesome: 3.5mm, NFC, IRda, microSD, price, camera, battery life, xiaomi android update frequency, color choice,. Don't like: Band support, SD 730G (depending on what you want), 9 Pie out of the box

  • tell me where is 5× optical zoom they talk about it afew days ago???? its just Rumor just like Flip camera in the beginning days of introducing CC9 series

  • No binaural recording. The dedicated noise cancelling microphone is a lie. only Sony Xperia high ends have them and they can record 3d sound, i.e. binaural. Recording video without binaural sound is just silly. I tried Xiaomi usb C earphone. It's noise cancellation works for all phones using usb C but recording is only mono so it loses the opportunity to record binaurall. 3.5mm is only for earphone, not microphone, unlike Sony's high end.

  • No dedicated micro sd slot? Then BIG NO for me!

  • but lack of OIS in Realme too

  • where do you see 5 cam???

  • Bad: No OIS, no Qi wireless charging, notch, heavy, fat at 9.7mm (5h Sot is good enough) Good: 3.5mm, NFC, IRda, microSD, price

  • all new realme like realme x2 & 5 pro support dedicated sd card but you know what to do ? you make mi A3 (cc9e) with Hd+ screen & shared sd card with sim 2 & redmi note 8 (8T) with Fhd+ screen & dedicated sd card in realme phones dedicated sd card its not point, its ordinary option on almost all phones even in X2 with Sd730G from realme c2, 3 pro to realme 5, Q all have dedicated sd card x2 730G have dedicated sd card but Redmi k20 (Mi 9T) with sd730 doesn't support sd card

  • Finally *Rounded screen* that's great People want more xiaomi phones with Snapdragon 730/730G

  • realme x2 now 225$....6/64....30w fast charge....4000mah...64mp...same sd730G so how much for more battery 5170mah & 108mp ????

  • 5 cameras lol what next ?? 6??

  • phone with 5170mah is in very good tall 157.8mm galaxy m30 with 5000mah 159mm

  • Is it coming to india?

  • I hope its price will be under 260 euro

  • The spec info from the writer not adequate possibly the Chinese language translations. There was an accompanied photographs with 5x view in the previous write ups

  • Pro order from day one if it have sd card for real. Because some site said no

  • It would be amazing/confusing if they'll name it Mi CC9T and CC9T Pro

  • on the specifications there shows 48 mp camera.. why?

  • How about Mi note 10 pro with Snapdragon 855+(maybe could be let's say mi CC9 pro plus inside China), will be also unveiled?

  • Whare is 5x optical zoom ?

  • First time i see a midranger with 12GB ram funny. With SD730 the final price should be around 270 euros. Maybe less. Stil its a one hell of a phone. Other competitors will have a tough day and time to beat this beauty.

  • mi note 10 its global cc9 pro china & this one here to beat Realme X2 how much difference btw prices of 108Mp & 5170mah VS 64Mp & 4000mah

  • It would be the first phone with 108MP sensor camera. The battery capacity is also good. Nice phone

  • I hope it will be available in Hungary.

  • This phone is awesome

  • curved screen with notch- no thanks

  • I want this phone

  • Pro order from day one if it have sd card for real. Because some site said no
