Xiaomi’s mainstream flagship, the Mi 9, is selling like hotcakes inside and outside of China. And that’s pretty easy to understand – We’re talking about a flagship-packed smartphone with a neat design, with a gorgeous teardrop-notch display. Tomorrow those residing in the UK will be able to purchase this wonderful piece of technology.
The handset was already released in other European countries such as Spain, and Italy, so it is coming a bit late for the UK customers. Starting tomorrow, buyers will be able to get it via Vodafone, or through Xiaomi’s online Mi.com store, and of course at the offline Mi Store that is located in London. If you’ve been living in a cave during the first months of 2019, we’re are here to refresh your memory about the Mi 9. The handset is packed with a Snapdragon 855 and paired with 8GB of RAM, the handset is available in storage variants with 64GB or 128GB.
