Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro 5G
Overview
The Mi 9 Pro 5G is Xiaomi’s first attempt into the world of 5G enabled smartphones. The device comes with almost similar specifications and designed of the standard Mi 9 Pro, except for the presence of 5G Network modem, and of course, the price. So you are getting same Snapdragon 855+, along with same triple rear camera setup. It comes with a 6.39-inch Full HD+ Super AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 6 protection, and an overhead notch for the front facing camera.
As mentioned above, the Mi 9 Pro 5G comes with Snapdragon 855+ SoC, an Octa-core CPU clocked at 2.96GHz, along with Adreno 640 GPU, 8/12 GB of RAM, 128/256/512 GB internal storage, and runs Android 10 with MIUI 11 out of the box. The camera department consists of a triple rear sensors, and a single front-mounted sensor, which includes;
- A large 48-megapixel Sony IMX586 sensor with Laser Autofocus, Phase Detection Auto focus (PDAF) and Contrast Detection Autofocus (CAF), closed-loop Voice Coil Motor (VCM) for improved auto-focusing,
- A 12-megapixel Samsung S5K3M5 telephoto camera for 2x lossless zoom
- A 16-megapixel Sony IMX481 with 117-degree ultra-wide angle LENS and
- A 20MP front-facing AI-powered sensor
The Mi 9 Pro 5G features optical in-display fingerprint sensor that is equivalent to a 5μm macro camera, which is several times higher than the traditional capacitive fingerprint sensor. The back uses nano-level laser engraving holographic technology and dual layer nano coating that offers unique colors when light is reflected against, and also has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 protection.
It packs a 4000mAh battery and has support for 40W fast charging as well as Xiaomi’s first 30W wireless fast charging. Other specifications and silent features of the Xiaomi Mi 9 Pro 5G are detailed in the specification table below.
