Hey what’s up? Sami here, today we are going to take a look at the new series phone from Xiaomi: Mi CC9,
and compare to Xiaomi 9 to see what's the difference.
So this is the CC9, it looks almost exact the same as Mi9,
the front water-drop notch full screen display and the rear triple camera, looks like a twin.
Since the screen specs are the same as Mi9 so it gives you a pretty good viewing experience.
Of course, like I said it’s just almost the same as Mi9, there are some minor differences,
like it gets rid of the AI button and a circle that’s around the middle camera lens of Mi9,
it adds a breathable Xiaomi logo at the bottom left and the 3.5mm headphone jack.
To be honest, I was deeply impressed by its design, looks elegant and premium.
As for the biggest upgrade of mi cc9 I guess would be the selfie camera,
you may have seen some of its samples, which was released by Xiaomi couple of days ago.
So how's it on earth, let’s test out.
We shot some of the selfies under dim light and backlight condition,
let me know what you think in the comment section.
As for the rear camera, judged from the specs, Mi CC9 somehow is not as strong as Mi9,
it adopts Sony 48mp main sensor, 8mp ultra wide lens and a 2mp depth of field lens
We’ve also shot some samples, let's take a look.
Overall, I would say the camera performance is really great, it generates crisp, sharp and natural photos
Maybe the only downside is the performance of the ultra wide lens, it loses some details and looks blurred while we zoom in.
I gotta mention the camera has two excellent features that I’d like to introduce.
One is the magic sky switching, the other one is the Mimoji, yes, I know sounds like Memoji from apple, but not the same.
The magic sky switching is quite amazing, it not only switches the sky but also the whole picture,
check out the results!
But of course, under some complicate situations, it can’t change precisely, like the handrail on top of the building,
also seems the surroundings of the trees have been blurred somehow.
But overall this feature is astonishing, enough for you to show off on your Facebook.
Move to the mimoji, not like apple you have to choose an emoji first, Xiaomi takes a picture of you first,
then generates a module and last you finalize it by adjusting details,
however, I found it generates almost the same modules no matter how you look, that’s interesting.
Last, let's move to the hardware performance, Mi CC9 packs the snapdragon 710, it got around 176k scores,
the average frames per second for PUBG is 29, for the glory of the king is 58,
and here is the heat map for the phone after half an hour game playing
For the battery, it adopts a 4030 mah huge battery, enough for you to make one day through
And here is the charging chart, it takes about 90 minutes to fully charge.
As you may know, Xiaomi CC9 is the first product of Xiaomi's cooperation with Meitu.
Meitu is also a Chinese tech giant that focuses on selfie apps, that’s why on Mi CC9 it has a such great selfie camera.
On the design wise, it’s the same as Mi9, beautiful and elegant, the snapdragon 710 is enough for your daily use,
plus it has good battery life, infrared blaster, in-display fingerprint scanner and NFC and most importantly, it has a headphone jack!
All of these combined makes Mi CC9 another popular phone from Xiaomi in my opinion, just this time, girls will like it more.
That’s a brief hands on of Mi CC9, if you have any questions let me know.
