Earlier today (27th March 2020), Xiaomi officially delisted the Mi CC9 Pro from its website. It was the first smartphone from the Chinese tech giant to feature a 100 megapixel sensor and the company said it is an honor to start a new chapter.

The announcement was made online on Weibo, a Chinese microblogging website. The Xiaomi Mi CC9 Pro was released back on 5th November 2019 and was the first smartphone to launch with a 100 megapixel camera. Notably, the device even topped the DxOMark camera rating, receiving an overall score of 121 points in the testings. This made it the highest scoring Xiaomi smartphone at the time as well. For those unaware, DxOMark is a known figure that rates smartphones and professional grade cameras.

Previously, the Vice President of Xiaomi, Lu Weibing, had announced on his official Weibo account that every 4G handsets above 2,000 Yuan (roughly 282 US Dollars) will be delisted immediately. The reason given was the arrival of 5G enabled handset era. So this move comes as no surprise, rather being expected sooner or later. As of right now, Xiaomi’s CC9 Pro can no longer be found on Xiaomi’s official website.

Similarly, other models that have been delisted in the series include, the Mi CC9, Mi CC9e, Mi CC9 Mietu Custom Edition. These are now officially out of stock and the company has also stopped production entirely.

The Mi CC9 series includes the Mi CC9e, Mi CC9, Mi CC9 Pro, and the Mi CC9 Meitu Custom Edition. While all four phones are borne from Xiaomi and Meitu‘s partnership, the Mi CC9 Meitu Edition contains more of Meitu’s input. Its cameras are powered by Meitu’s imaging technology and not Xiaomi’s. It also has Meitu’s branding and comes with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.

When it launched back in May, it was priced at ¥2599 (~$370). Xiaomi has now announced that the phone will get a price slash down to ¥1999 (~$284) at 10 AM tomorrow. So if you have set your eyes on the Mi CC9 Meitu Edition, tomorrow is an opportunity for you to get the phone at a cheaper price.

The Mi CC9 Meitu Custom Edition has a 6.39-inch FHD+ AMOLED display with a waterdrop notch. It is powered by a Snapdragon 710 processor and draws power from a 4030mAh battery.

The selfie camera is a 32MP sensor with AI low-light portrait mode. There is a 48MP Sony camera on the rear and it is paired with an 8MP ultrawide angle camera and a 2MP depth sensor. There are lots of features including a Mimoji, Xiaomi’s take on AR emojis.

The phone has NFC, an IR blaster, dual-SIM support, an audio jack, and a USB-C port. It supports 18W fast charging and runs MIUI based on Android 9 Pie out of the box.
