Specifications

Equipment

In the box we found the smart phone, cable with USB connectors, USB Type-C adapter and quick charging, Instructions, hard plastic cover and clip.

Appearance and ergonomics

The gadget is sold in four colors: black, white, blue and red. We got the most discreet, classic modification in black.

Rear panel demonstrated irregular: gray ribbed pattern on the back shimmers in the light. It looks interesting, but not flashy. Still, the Mi 9T Pro is not one of those models that are called youth and serious flagship.

Attention is drawn to the module camera. In Xiaomi is not so much the actual lines, where it is in the middle, and Mi 9T just one of them. On the one hand, nothing criminal in this, and on the other - the lower lens and then zalyapyvaetsya forefinger.

The main body of the smartphone have a couple of elements in red: the power button and the upper rim 48-megapixel lens. Also, it highlighted red moving out of the front camera unit.

According to the location in the hand Mi 9T Pro reminds Mi 9: This is a classic big flagship smartphone by Xiaomi.

Comes with carrying case. He was hard and dull, turns smartphone into an interesting appearance bezemotsionalny piece of plastic. Classic silicone version would look better.

Screen

Mi 9T Pro is equipped with a great Super-AMOLED-display with a resolution of Full HD +. It's bright, detail and contrast that emphasizes black and scarlet theme design, installed by default.

In the setting display brightness can be adjusted in night mode (Enabled when the slider is lowered and the low-light), color tone change, and to select one of the headpieces 16 Always on Display.

All those leaving the chamber need, in fact, only competition in the frameless. Here Mi 9T Pro can safely award the point: the lower brow still remained thickened, but the display seems limitless.

Sound

The sound is good, but again in mono. Earphone is not supplied. But there is support for Bluetooth with aptX, analog mini-jack is also in place.

Camera

Mi 9T Pro has received a set of three cameras: the main, ultrashirokougolnoy and telephoto. strange module. One of the holes is located separately, beside it flaunts 48MP inscription. But this lens is responsible for shooting with the zoom, and for footage in high definition - the sensor underneath. However, work is not affected.

These images are obtained on day three of the lens automatically. In my opinion, all very good. Click on the image to see them better.

One of the characteristics in which competing manufacturers smartphones, - the number of megapixels. In itself, it does not mean anything: the limited size of the camera sensor will not allow improve the quality of images four times.

Creating a 48-megapixel shots are not necessary in most scenarios. The difference between classical and HD-shooting can be seen only in strong (about ten times) magnification and with good light. The image below on the left - the picture automatically to the right - in the mode of creating a 48-megapixel shots.

We first tested the multi-pixel camera with Mi 9. Note that Mi 9T Pro it works much better: 48MP mode button is located in a convenient location on the screen, and the frame does not need time to capture processing.

At night, use a zoom useless aperture telephoto lens to shoot is not enough. Includes basic and simple image is cropped. Therefore we show examples ultrashirokougolnoy and classic photography.

In low light conditions it helps out mode "Night". It not only pulls the dark parts of the frame with a minimum of noise, but also accurately aligns the exposure. Light sources can be seen clearly, do not merge into a single ball of light. The image below on the left - part of the picture taken in automatic mode, on the right - in the "Night."

Separate plus portrait shooting. Pictures with bokeh are obtained chic.

We proceed to the next chip characteristic Mi 9T Pro - front camera. At first the pictures. All is well and boring: day selfie make excellent evening - a little worse. portrait mode It works on hurray in any light.

The peculiarity of the front chamber is not in the specification and in the device. It is located inside the housing and leaves with a distinctive sound and the red backlight when activated.

The camera moves slowly. If you drop your smartphone in the process of shooting, the module does not have time to hide in the body. Authorization of a person takes an eternity. About the unreliability of mechanical modules, the absence of dust and moisture protection and a banal inconvenience keep silent.

camera application at Mi 9T Pro concise. All that you may need to see, and unpopular features hidden in the context menu of additional options.

Performance

The first conclusions on the performance can be made by reading the specification. There is installed a top Snapdragon 855 with the frequency of the nuclei to 2.84 GHz, memory capacity of 6 GB Adreno 640 and GPU. This iron perfectly manifests itself in the system, and heavy games (PUBG It flies in the HDR-mode) and the camera (processing 48-megapixel shots takes the same time as conventional treatment).

Here are the results Geekbench test:

But AnTuTu:

We also drove through Mi 9T Pro benchmark 3DMark Sling Shot Extreme. The program reported that 98-99% of smartphone bypasses its competitors in the different tests. Perhaps this is too optimistic, but close to the truth: Mi 9T Pro really powerful model that perfectly cope with everything. In the overall ranking is not yet visible, but there is Redmi K20 Pro - this is the same smartphone under a different name.

Software

The device is running Android 9.0 controlled with a shell MIUI 10. She repeats moderately iOS best features and supports advanced options.

The location and number of buttons to the Quick Access Toolbar can be customized. With the function "Split screen", you can use two applications at the same time.

On the ground remains a classic set of services from Xiaomi. We even gave up their settings when you first turn on, but the system still met us by AliExpress stuffed to the eyeballs, "yuloy" and "Yandex. Taxi". All unnecessary can be removed.

Overall, MIUI 10 works quickly and correctly. This is a convenient wrapper to cope with which can anyone who has dealt with smartphones.

unlocking

Due to the uncomfortable pull-out module you'll be sure to use only your finger. The sensor is hidden in the screen, Works quickly and correctly.

autonomy

battery capacity - 4000 mAh. This is enough for 1-1.5 days is very active use. In addition, the charge quickly compensated by a fast 27-watt charging. Adapter included.

results

Camera Mi 9T Pro removes the market leader in level smartphones, iron pulls everything and attracts with its frameless screen, brightness and colors. A strange decision from the front lens does not pull on a serious mistake, and someone may even come to mind.

Mi 9T Pro claims to be the flagship status in any specifications, but there is a feeling that it lacks ambition and character. Xiaomi manages to make strikingly similar smartphones. Even freaks like traveling modules and boards visible under the hood give them more strangeness than individuality.

If you carefully study the specifications to find the best model in terms of price and quality, be sure to include in the comparison Mi 9T Pro: he has a good chance. If you are looking for top-end flagship, but do not want to overpay for brand name, This model you will like it too. If you want to experience something new, and have used the latest smartphones Xiaomi, look for something else.

According to preliminary data, the price of Mi 9T Pro with 6GB of RAM and 128 GB of ROM, a little more than 30,000 rubles.
