fingerprints. There’s also no waterproofing, though this
is yet to be found in any Xiaomi phone to date.

Performance
Mi 9T offers very capable performance at this price
point, and is the first handset to run Qualcomm’s
Snapdragon 730 – an upgrade over the Snapdragon
712 found in the Mi 9 SE, though a sizeable step down
from Mi 9’s 7nm Snapdragon 855.
This is an 8nm octa-core chip running at 2.2GHz and
integrated with the Kryo 470 CPU and 610MHz Adreno


  1. It’s also paired with 6GB of memory.
    We ran our usual benchmarks and found strong
    performance for a mid-range market. In Geekbench 4
    it recorded 6,970 points multi-core, which is faster than
    the Mi 9 SE and many better known UK phones at this


Geekbench 4
