Xiaomi‘s latest flagship Mi 9 series has been plagued by inadequate stock since the phone was launched last month. That has necessitated the company to ramp up its production, with Lei Jun even promising to handle a screwdriver in order to speed up the production process. Looks like the Mi 9 is back in stock as Xiaomi has scheduled another round of flash sale for tomorrow (March 30). 
We expect the sales to wrap up as soon as it begins. It could take up to a month before the device will become available on open sales in China. But for now, Xiaomi is plagued with a shortage of stock on all models of the Mi 9. We do hope that the company find a way to ramp up its production in order for the models to be available in large quantity soon after launch.

As a reminder, Xiaomi Mi 9 sports a 6.39-inch 2340 x 1080 AMOLED display with a waterdrop notch that houses the selfie camera. The display panel is supplied by Samsung and is protected by a layer of Gorilla Glass 6. Under the hood, it runs Snapdragon 855 processor and is paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. There is equally an 8GB RAM variant with 128GB of storage too. The Mi 9 is Xiaomi’s first triple camera phone. The first camera with the holographic ring around it is actually the telephoto lens – a 12MP Samsung ISOCELL S5K3M5 sensor with an f/2.2 aperture and 2x optical zoom. The main sensor is a 48MP Sony IMX586 f/1.75 sensor with a 6P lens. There is also a 16MP Sony IMX481 f/2.2 sensor for taking wide-angle photos and macro shots. The selfie camera is a 20MP sensor and comes with a bunch of modes including AR avatars and an integration with TicTok. Other features include an in-display fingerprint scanner, NFC, a dedicated AI button, Bluetooth 5.0 dual-frequency GPS for better positioning, an infrared port, and a USB Type-C port.
