is this full screen north south west east edge to edge phone?

camera bulge is quite a turn-off.

When they sub the flagship like pro, youth, I hope they can consider a big battery like 5k sacrifice the size.

What to do. I'm using a spare phone now, can't wait to buy for new one

What's the estimated price?

I wonder when will Xiaomi put IP68 rating on their flagships.

UFS3.0?

maybe thy dont bcs applying for IP will increase the cost of the phone..

teardrop like OnePlus 6t

Starting Price (est) :

The 6GB + 64GB variant will be priced at 2,499 Yuan or $369 (RM1507)
The 8GB + 128GB variant at 2,899 Yuan or $428 (RM1748)
The 8GB + 256GB variant at 3,499 Yuan or $517 (RM2110)

Impressive price, but nothing surprising from Xiaomi. Xiaomi has been selling amazing phones for 1/3 the price of Samsung for years.

Might sell off my lousy s9plus for this.

I am using a redmi note5 as a 2nd phone and its amazing for its price.

will target this phone if price between rm1.8k for 8/128

what is the measurement for iphone xs' chin? 3mm?

Thanks for the update

so base on this price in china, the price in MYR will add on about 150-200

not really, its not like Apple pricing. China est price really didnt fall far when reach Malaysia.

For example the Mi8 revealing price are 2699 RMB which is RM1625.93 (Direct google conversion) and you can find it on Lazada for almost the same at RM1639.00 for Malaysia set. Just around RM15 different. go even cheaper at at RM1439.00 for imported set.

If this price is right, then its near to mix 3 price already

CNY 3299 - MYR 1991
CNY 3499 - MYR 2112
CNY 3699 - MYR 2232
CNY 4999 - MYR 3017

xiaomi flagship model slowly getting more expensive
but still damn lot cheaper than other big brands

Yalor thought when mi9 release at 1.5k can get mi8 seken for 800
🤭🤭

1st time 3 camera + 48mp sensor
its not logic if 1.5k lah

Cheap AF for the specs... cant wait to test test

Redmi 5A user here and looking to upgrade a little bit from there so which Redmi can be consider for something around RM500-700 ??

By the way how much to change the 5A screen if it has crack ??

Thanks first

When hit near 2k lot other opt available
Should maintain mi8 price

I think mi9 prices will be quite close to Honor View 20 prices, probably cheaper.

sad thing.. probably no more under 2k mi flagship from mi9 onwards.. probably need to wait few months for price to drop a bit.. 3299 close to 2k already. I can see Mi Malaysia will be selling around 2399 onwards. sadddd

You may ask for recommendation at this thread;

But still poor in low light as usual...

Haha! ok la, at least it is huge improvement for Mi phone.

Only mentioned Luminance noise when zooming, especially in low light.

Big improvement n compable now

i think the low light performance is good wor as what i read from the dxomark review

How can be good without OIS in low light? Xiaomi always lets me down on Mi series. Mix series is much better.

Wait. There's a MI 9 with vanilla Android???



https://m.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_9_transpar...-news-35616.php

what do you mean by without ois in low light?

xiaomi disable ois during low light?

im not sure about the image stabilization while taking photo since it dxomark did not mention it in the article

Vanilla Mi 9 simply just means stock Mi 9 without Battle Angel branding. Not stock Android.

Almost for a heart attack there The only thing stopping me from getting a Xiaomi phone is that damn MIUI lol

There is no hardware optical image stabilizer. Software only.

Stock android is overrated imo.

oh, understood.

then it's a surprise that Mi 9 still able to achieved score 92 compare to Huawei P20 Pro with score 94 in Stabilization

Pay money then can lo.

lol

anyway, it's a big step for xiaomi in smartphone camera, congratz xiaomi.

im a xiaomi fan, in future can get good xiaomi phone liao

but mi9 is quite small, as im a big phone fan, using Mi Max

dunno if all the Mi series camera will get camera performance upgraded or not in future

finger cross hope for that

I'm drooling at the Mi9 Explore. 🤤🤤🤤

But gsmarena low light studio sample suggests otherwise. It's trounced by Honor View 20.

No wonder it opts for high ISO high shutter speed.

Wonder why they removed OIS from this flagship line? Mi 8, Mi 6, Mi 5 has OIS. Is it because of the sensor? Mate 20 pro 40mp sensor doesn't have OIS too.. But at least the telephoto lens have OIS.

I think view 20 has the best camera even compared to the mate 20 pro. When I pixel peep for image quality on GSMarena test, I always look at the US dollar and Canadian dollar text. Clearly view 20 shows a great details on those text where mate 20 even hardly able to read.

Mi 9 wasn't good as well even compared it to Mi 8. Check it out.

Really interested to see honor View 20 compared to mi9 as both uses same lense and megapixel iinm.

worst than mix 3 and mi 8..

GSMarena comparison View 20 VS Mix 3 VS Mi 9

View 20 VS Mate 20 Pro VS Mi 9

View 20 VS Mi 8 VS Mi 9

Yup I saw it as well. I don't know how accurate is gsmarena's test but I noticed the U11+, Sony XZ2, XZ3 and View 20 have the best IQ if pixel peeping. U12 on the other hand was blurry.

For native resolution, the Sony XZ3's 19MP resolves the most details. Can even read the small fonts of railway station stops and the fabric surface of clothes. But in reality it doesn't resolve as much because the lens is slightly wider than other cams.

Honor 20v low light seems better than mate 20....How come mi9 dxomark rank so high? Hmm

But on the test, you can see the corner are sharp too for Mi 9. Take a look at the stitches of the horse/donkey.

I guess we shall not pixel peep and see the overall photo.

In good light, yes. Mi 9 seems to have a great lense. Most lens tends to be soft at edges.

But the real challenge is in the low light test. Mi 9's lack of OIS is really at major disadvantages. It opts for ISO 4000+ instead of below ISO 1000, resulting in very noise outputs.

https://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType...5&idPhone3=9507

If want to pixel peep, should choose multiple regions.

Let's hope this is only an early software, they will improve in updates I hope. On my Mi 8 I've been using mostly google camera now. Night sight is awesome. Let's see if mi 9 able to use it and how much it would benefit from it.

No need to wait for Xiaomi to improve their own camera app. My Mi 6 camera is still bad like always. Hardware is good but they don't improve the software so force you to buy new phone only.

I shoot with raw on mi8 too. quality is miles better than in phone processing and that's on a 1/2.55" sensor. Wonder what a 1/2" sensor is capable of in RAW.

Currently in mi8 ..using the Google camera and it's really perform better then the middle camera app... So if the middle 9 can be install Google camera.. it should have a better perform. Hardware was wonderful but the software in camera is like previous mi series ...lag in performing

Normally mi 9 is expensive or cheaper than mix 3?

Still unsure which one should i take.
Eager to try sd855 but no notch and slide is just too sexy

Was expecting the price will be 1999 to 2099 for the variant 6gb 128gb ROM version... The explorer version seem won't be officially in Malaysia .....
Personally will choice the mi 9 over the mix 3 if u wish to having a experience of blade fast of the SD 855 and new triple camera ...

Mi mix more expensive

Since I'm mi8 user, I will go for mi mix 3

Try something new with sliding phone

Some good news , we might be getting Mi 9 soon. I am hoping it to release next month.

https://technave.com/gadget/Xiaomi-Mi-9-and...soon-13762.html

Mix expensive....

Expect 16xx.....

Rmb 2999 already rm18xx
.. u expert rm16xx ... If there. Have a 64gb version but did 64 sufficient for daily drive

Wait for Pocophone F2... Huhu

We will see later
