Xiaomi Mi 9 to feature triple camera, Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor

Xiaomi Mi 9 will have a triple camera at the back and will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor, which means it will be 5G ready as well. This comes from a series of Weibo posts by Xiaomi’s CEO and co-founder Lei Jun, who posted pictures of the Mi 9 on his official handle. The Mi 9 is due to launch in China on February 20, while the company is also hosting an event on February 24 at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona.

According to the posts shared by Lei Jun, the Xiaomi Mi 9 will come in two colour options: blue and purple, and the phone appears to have a “holographic illusion” effect at the back depending on the lighting. Based on the image, it is clear, Xiaomi is introducing triple cameras on the Mi 9, which will be the first phone from the company to support this kind of a setup.
