One of the great attractions of the Xiaomi Mi9 will be its three rear cameras, mounting Sony sensors of the highest range will have a main 48MP, another wide-angle of 117º with 16MP and one for close-ups of 12 MP with macro of 4cm. The size of the sensor goes from 1/22.5″ in the Mi8 to 1/22″ in the Mi9 so we will have much more light capture.
