The newly announced smartphone comes in an even cheaper SE version, or an Explorer model with 12GB RAM.
Xiaomi has officially announced its Mi 9 smartphone, its well equipped flagship device that will likely be a good deal for those who can get their hands on it.

The Mi 9 uses the Snapdragon 855 chip and either 6 or 8GB of RAM. It comes with a 6.39-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, as used on its Mi Mix 3, and has a fingerprint reader hidden within it.
The distinctive three camera array on the phone’s curved holographic back is made up of a 48MP main sensor, with a 12MP telephoto lens and a 16MP ultra-wide angle lens joining it, plus a 20MP selfie camera. This is then aided by AI processing, which will ensure your photos look good by doing things such as fixing foreground images on ultra-wide shots that would normally be distorted. Based on images they showed off at the presentation, this phone seems like your best bet for taking images of the moon, if that’s something you’re a fan of photographing.
