The Mi 9T, however, is not a new smartphone. It's actually a re-branded Redmi K20 which was announced last week. The Mi 9T is expected to be accompanied by a Pro model, which, you guessed it right, will be a re-badged K20 Pro.

That said, the K20 and K20 Pro are also expected to debut as Poco F2 and Poco F2 Pro respectively in some markets. But in India, they will retain their original names and arrive on July 15.

We should know the pricing and availability details of the Mi 9T next Wednesday.
