After the Mi CC9 Pro hit TENAA earlier today, we knew that the phone would come with a slightly curved display with a notch on top. Now, Xiaomi has officially released a render of the CC9 Pro and it flaunts dual-curved display on both the side. We also get a glimpse of the waterdrop notch on top of the phone along with the presence of a 3.5mm headphone jack at the bottom.
According to the TENAA listing, the Mi CC9 Pro will be quite thick measuring 9.67mm. But even such a thick form factor won’t stop the large 108MP penta-camera setup from protruding from the body. As you can see in the images below, even the wide-angle camera (the large lens below the triple cameras) sticks out. The plus side of such a thick body is that it can house a really large 5170mAh battery inside which combined with Snapdragon 730G (processor is yet to be confirmed) should easily offer more than a day’s battery life.

Given the processor inside, the Mi CC9 Pro shouldn’t be a flagship model. So, according to a blogger in China, it won’t have 5G support, unlike the recently launched Mi 9 Pro 5G. He also said that the phone won’t have a high refresh rate display either. Given that a lot of smartphones have started to use at least a 90Hz screen (sometimes even 120Hz), this is a bit disappointing.
However, if the 108MP penta-camera module performs really well (full camera specs here), the lack of 5G support or a 90Hz screen won’t really matter.
Note that, internationally, the Mi CC9 Pro could be sold as the Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Pro.
