News & Reviews:   Xiaomi mi 9t pre-order

Based on a statement by AusDroid.net, Xiaomi has mentioned that the Xiaomi Mi 9T could be getting the Android 10 update around October 2019. Not only that, but they have also mentioned that the new update will come with new features such as a system-wide dark theme, improved gesture controls, better privacy contarols and more.

Xiaomi has heard your pleas and seen your requests. The much loved Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro is now in Malaysia with some pretty powerful tech specs and features which include the Snapdragon 855 chipset, a full screen AMOLED display and a triple rear camera setup. Those flagship specs will be priced from RM1599 and will be available starting on the 30th of August.

I’ve been called a flagship snob quite a number of times due to me being quite judgy when it comes to budget and mid-range smartphones. Granted, I’ve been quite spoilt when it comes to smartphones and when you’ve tried the best of the best, it's hard to lower your expectations.

However, the Xiaomi Mi 9T completely changed my expectations when it comes to mid-range devices. Priced at RM1199, this device is powered by the Snapdragon 730 chipset yet performs tasks that any casual smartphone user would do everyday beautifully. With its full screen display and awesome rear design, this makes for an overall great phone. Read below to find out more!

Starting from 16 July until 26 July, Xiaomi will be rewarding owners of the Xiaomi Mi 9T with prizes with a total worth of up to RM5000. The prizes include products such as the Mi Electric Scooter worth RM1729 as well as the Mi Robot Vacuum Cleaner currently worth RM1199. In addition to that, the Mi LED Smart Bulb will be awarded as a consolation prize for those who participated in the exclusive giveaway.

In conjunction with Lazada’s Mid-Year Festival sale on 12 July 2019, get up to RM800 off selected Xiaomi smartphones during the special flash sale which starts from 12 AM to 2 AM. The devices that will be available during the flash sale are the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S, Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, as well as the Xiaomi Mi Band 3.

The Redmi K20 is called the Xiaomi Mi 9T here in Malaysia. When we couldn’t think the phone could get cooler, Redmi unveils the Redmi K20 Pro Marvel Hero Limited Edition in China which pays tribute to our favourite Marvel heroes. 

Today marks the official sales of the Xiaomi Mi 9T and it has been proven to be quite popular. Since 20 June 2019, about 75,000 customers have pre-booked the latest Xiaomi mobile phone and at the time of posting this, Xiaomi Malaysia is also proud to announce that 3000 units have been sold within the first 30 minutes! In conjunction of this, our content creator and show host, Natasha Hashim will be doing a livestream on Lazada app later at 11AM for a giveaway!

Xiaomi is on a roll this year, after releasing several favourable smartphones such as the Mi MIX 3, Mi 9, Mi 9 SE and the recent Mi 9T in Malaysia, we got news from Xiaomi CEO, Lei Jun on the current status of the Mi and Redmi series, as well as the Mi Max and Mi Note series this year...which won't be happening.

Here is our unboxing and first impression video of the Xiaomi Mi 9T, which was recently unveiled in Malaysia starting from RM1199 and it features their very first 20MP front-facing pop-up camera, 18W charging as well as the 3.5mm headphone jack.

Looking to #TerminatetheRivals and nearly every other budget smartphone maker, Lazada Malaysia recently revealed the Xiaomi Mi 9T 6GB RAM + 64GB storage variant for a shocking early bird offer of RM1099 on 25 June 2019. Does this disrupt the Malaysian market? YES! Is it official? Not just yet, because while it may have appeared on Lazada, we haven’t seen it appear on the Mi Malaysia Facebook page or their official site.
