While the Mi CC9e is powered by MIUI 10 that’s based on Android 9 Pie, the Mi A3 boots the stock version of Android Pie. As expected, the handset has been launched as part of Google’s Android One platform. The Mi A3 is a huge upgrade over its predecessor, and is the first Mi series handset to sport a triple camera setup, a waterdrop notch, and an in-display fingerprint sensor.
