Just around the time the Xiaomi CC9 and Xiaomi CC9e phones were about to launch, news of Xiaomi’s next-generation Android One phones also surfaced again. The reason for this is because of evidence showing that the CC9 and CC9e might also launch as the Mi A3 and Mi A3 Lite in other markets began to show up. Now renders of the Mi A3 including its specs have surfaced.

The official renders and specs show that the Mi A3 will come in three color variants – black, blue, and white; the same ones as the Xiaomi CC9.

Since this is the same device as the CC9, we don’t need to go over the design again, but it is important to mention that it is nice to have the audio jack return following its removal in the Mi A2. There is also the new Android One logo at the bottom left of the phone.

According to Winfuture.de, the source of the images and leaked specs, the Mi A3 will come with a 6.0-inch 2240 x 1080 Super AMOLED Dot Drop display with a fingerprint scanner underneath. The notch is home to a 32MP selfie camera.

On the back, the phone has three cameras – a 48MP f/1.79 primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide angle camera, and a 2MP depth sensor. Coming to the processor, the Mi A3 differs from the CC9 as it swaps the Snapdragon 710 processor for the Snapdragon 665 chipset. This is the same info our source told us yesterday which means the Mi A3 is sort of the CC9 with the CC9e’s chipset. Nevertheless, Roland Quandt does advise that he isn’t 100% sure of the specs, so better to take it with a grain of salt.

Xiaomi Mi A3 official pics w/o watermark. Enjoy. PS: I am not 100% on the specs as my info is contradicting in some ways. SD665 but 1080p is not a CC9 and not a CC9e either, so please take this wiht a grain of salt. Pics are official though. More: https://t.co/6uWOokV3Lb pic.twitter.com/BSqqAQW9z4

The Mi A3 will come with 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB of storage and will also have support for storage expansion which Xiaomi once again removed from the Mi A2. Its battery capacity is 4000mAh and there is support for fast charging, though the exact type isn’t mentioned. The phone will have a USB type-C port and an IR blaster for controlling your electronic appliances. It will run Android 9 Pie out of the box.

The phone is scheduled to launch soon and Winfuture reports it will be available in Germany too. It should also be available in other parts of Europe including the UK.
