Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro was announced earlier this month in China with a massive 108MP sensor at the back. The phone had a special CC9 Pro Premium edition as well featuring the world’s first 8P lens on a smartphone. However, ever since its launch, this special edition was pretty hard to purchase due to supply issues. That changed recently as the Mi CC9 Pro Premium Edition is now available via open sale in China.
Xiaomi’s product manager Thomas Wang revealed that the company was struggling to procure a steady supply of the 8P lens in the first two weeks post-launch due to low production yield. However, the supply has stabilized now which allowed Xiaomi to list the Premium Edition on open sale. This particular edition is available on the company’s official website in 8GB RAM + 256GB variant for 3499 yuan ($498).
The Mi CC9 Pro comes with the mid-range Snapdragon 730G SoC. There’s a powerful penta-camera setup at the back featuring a 108 MP sensor along with a 5 MP (upscaled to 8MP) telephoto sensor with 5x optical zoom, another 12 MP 50mm (telephoto) 2x optical zoom lens, a 20 MP ultrawide shooter and a 2 MP dedicated macro lens. Up front there’s a 32MP sensor. A large 5260 mAh battery powers the device.
The Mi CC9 Pro was launched as the Mi Note 10 in Europe and will soon make it to India as well.
