    I looked at the samples from GSMArena's Mi Note 10, and they are much better (ie. with noise, but must less smearing and waxy textures). You can see it here: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_note_10-review-2020p6.php. Other samples are at: https://www.androidauthority.com/xiaomi-mi-note-10-review-1050031/. This has a lot of face and people shots, which look great I thought.

    Shouldn't Mi CC9 be the same as Mi Note 10? Samples taken differ by a lot.

      The 2x is 12MP 1.4μm, that's 1/2.55" the size of Google's, Apple's and Samsung's main module in recent generations, meaning with Gcam will reliably provide top quality photos with ~50mm equiv. FoV.
      I believe this is the biggest surprise here since the HMX was leaked quite a while ago.

        I guess for the price it's an okay device. It has many flaws and the design is ugly and not user friendly, also runs android which is a big downside, as well as being a chin-e device which means everything you do will be shared with CN's surveillance/user-monitoring program.

        Ppl in CN might not care about this so much as they are used to being watched at every step, however ppl living in developed, non-commy countries, will not touch such a device unless they are forced to.

          ron2000xm, 06 Nov 2019My biggest type on this phone is the weight and thickness. ... moreI suppose as camera is this phone's main selling point and cameras (esp. 4K videos) do eat a significant amount of juice, the added capacity can help from situation where a SSSSSSSSR scene appears and you're low on battery.

                        Anyway, the photo samples are so bad it's not even funny.
                        How this phone got a dxomark as high as the Mate 30 is mind-boggling. Just look at the faces of the people, their hair, clothes, the leaves of the trees, the people in the background - everything is ridiculously overprocessed to a point where everything looks like an oil painting or rather like one of these CGI-generated anime movies. And the oversharpening is so crazy that everything has a contrast halo.
                        Someone has definitely paid good money to dxomark. Doesn't matter if it's xiaomi or samsung

                              Good photo, but I'm still not convinced that the 27MP photos is better than the Nokia Lumia 1020 with native sensor. I'm not that impressed with the photo quality.

                                The cameras on this phone cost less than 100 dollars, so what did you expect?
                                It's a phone with cameras, not a DSLR with call functionality.

                                  These tiny-weeny phone cameras still can't beat the DSLR photos using real flash!

                                    My biggest type on this phone is the weight and thickness.
                                    Why not just put 8n a 4000mah battery and make it down to less and han 190g?
                                    People who buy this phone are not gamers so that there is no need to make it last a day while playing games. For me I'll charge it overnight anyway so 4000mah is good enough.
                                    People buying the phone want a good camera and decent phone performance and the specs fit perfectly.
                                    Even at this seemingly attractive price, I do not think it will sell as well as all the hype suggested. There are are things that xiaomi need to improve, or adjust rather.
                                    The is a bold move from xiaomi and I am sure they will learn and improve on future phones.
                                    I am looking forward to future phones, but not this one.

                                        "But then why not market the camera as an 8MP unit, to begin with?"
                                        They had to decide whether they advertise the camera as an 8 megapixel 3.8x camera or as a 5x camera with approximately 5 megapixels (it's actually approximately 4.6 megapixels). 8 megapixels and 5x would have been a lie as the sensor doesn't have so many pixels at this field of view.
