The Xiaomi CC9 is indeed launching as the Mi 9 Lite and proof comes from an NBTC certification of the phone.

The Thailand agency has certified a Xiaomi phone with the model number M1904F3BG and the certificate does say this is the Mi 9 Lite. The model number is near identical to that of the Mi CC9 sold in China whose model number is M1904F3BT.

The Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite was first certified in Russia by the EEC back in early August, but then we thought it would launch as the Mi A3 Pro. Sadly, that will not be the case. As it stands now, the chance of a Pro version of the Mi A3 existing is getting slim, and those waiting for one may have to settle for the Mi A3 or another device.

The Mi 9 Lite may launch this month, and when it does, it will carry the familiar Mi logo on its back and run MIUI. The phone will have a 6.39-inch FHD+ display with a notch at the top for a 32MP selfie camera. It will also have an in-display fingerprint scanner.

The phone will be powered by a Snapdragon 710 processor, with 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of onboard storage. Irrespective of the version you purchase, you will be able to add more storage via a MicroSD card slot. On the back will be triple rear cameras – a 48MP f/1.8 primary sensor, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 2MP depth sensor.

The Mi 9 Lite should pack a 4030mAh battery with 18W fast charging support. It will have a USB type-c port, a 3.5mm audio jack, NFC, and an infrared port too. Xiaomi will ship it with MIUI based on Android 9 Pie.
