Xiaomi Mi 9 and Mi 9 Explorer prices leak

Youd be forgiven to think that the Xiaomi Mi 9 is already officially announced – Xiaomi has already confirmed so many details about the phone. The actual launch is not until Wednesday, but if leaks keep coming in at this rate there will be no new information there. We can now add the price of the Mi 9 and the design of the Mi 9 Explorer edition to the list of things we know.

Well, the base Xiaomi Mi 9 with 6GB of RAM and 64GB storage will start at CNY 3,300. Check out the table below for the other configurations.

Note that the Mi 9 “transparent edition” is different from the Explorer edition. The latter will have 12GB of RAM (and yes, it will have a transparent back too). The rumored pricing info - $885 – represents a huge premium over the 8/256GB transparent model.

Here are some live photos of the Xiaomi Mi 9:
