Xiaomi announced a new smartphone series called “CC” last week. The first smartphones under the series are said to be the Mi CC9 and the Mi CC9e. Xiaomi is yet to confirm the phones launching under the CC series but rumours and leaks have revealed almost everything about the devices. With the Mi CC series, Xiaomi is aiming to target the selfie-centric audience and mostly the younger generation. The first phones under CC series or Mi CC9 and Mi CC9e will launch on July 2, the company confirmed on Monday.

Ahead of the launch, almost everything about the Mi CC9 and the Mi CC9e has been revealed by the rumours and leaks that are circulating all across the internet for a long time now. As far as the overall design is concerned the Mi CC9 and the Mi CC9e appears to be the same. At least that is what the rumours suggest. Rumours and leaks also suggest that both the Mi CC phones are also expected to include an in-display fingerprint sensor. As of now, there are no words whether or not the Mi CC9 and Mi CC9e will come to India. For now, the phones are launching in China.

Both the smartphones are expected to come with glass body, Gorilla Glass 5 on front and back, triple rear cameras, waterdrop notch, among other things.
