The Mi 9T Pro includes the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 platform, which consists of an octa-core

GPU performance increase of 45% and 20%, respectively, over the device’s predecessor. It also touts a
8-layer graphite-stack and bi-directional cooling system that dissipates heat generated during long-term
use. To complement that, the Mi 9T Pro has Game Turbo 2.0, which optimises the devices touch response, display, sound quality, network, and in-game calls. The feature elevates the device’s touch response rate to 180Hz while reducing click and touch response times by approximately 70 milliseconds.

Its DC brightness control setting automatically adjusts brightness to eliminate irritating flickers in low-light conditions, while Sunlight display 2.0 enables easy viewing in harsh lighting conditions.
Flaunting a narrow frame with Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and back, the device sports a comfortable form factor that shapes to the hand perfectly.
