We’re live at MWC where Xiaomi has just launched the Mi 9 in Europe following its initial announcement in China a few days ago. The device follows the trend of other Xiaomi devices of bringing flagship specs without the price.

Powered by a Snapdragon 855, 6GB of RAM, and triple camera setup, the Xiaomi Mi 9 is a powerhouse on the spec sheet. You’ll also get an in-display fingerprint sensor, fast wireless 20W charging, and a waterdrop notch, all for just €449.

Xiaomi Mi 9 Availability and Pricing

The Xiaomi Mi 9 will be available in Spain, Italy, and France from February 28 costing €449 for the 6GB + 64GB variant and €499 for the 6GB + 128GB model.

Pre-orders for the device begin today in France and will be available online through Xiaomi’s Mi.com website. There is an 8GB variant of the device that hasn’t made it to Europe, but 6GB should be sufficient for most people. The launch of Xiaomi’s lower-cost devices will no doubt do well in Europe where the likes of OnePlus are doing very well with affordable handsets.
