Redmi K20 may be rebranded as the Mi 9T in global markets based retail box leaks

There’s a certain Xiaomi Mi9T that has been leaked in a few images that shows its retail box. Many are assuming this is what the Redmi K20 will be rebranded to in markets outside China. The upcoming phone is already being teased on social media channels by the company. One of the images have surfaced on Weibo, while the other two have been leaked by a Dubai-based YouTuber.

All the three images of the phone show the front part of the alleged Mi 9T where the screen is stretching to the edges indicating the front camera will be put inside a pop-up module like in the Redmi K20 and the Redmi K20 Pro. This is what has led to the belief that this could be the rebranded version of the Redmi K20.

The Weibo image shows the retail box of the upcoming smartphone. The Mi 9T will reportedly come in a Carbon Black variant with 6GB RAM and 64GB storage. The box shows a render of the phone along with the Mi 9T branding. The render also shows the pop-up selfie camera.

The renders in the box as well as the photos shared by the Dubai-based blogger is in line with the photos of the Redmi K20. Earlier rumours that the Redmi K20 and the Redmi K20 Pro will debut outside China as the Mi 9T and Mi 9T Pro respectively, also bolstered the claims.

The image shared by the Dubai-based blogger shows a screen-guard of the device that has the specs written down. Based on that, the phone will have a 6.39-inch AMOLED display, in-display fingerprint sensor, 20MP pop-up front camera, and a 4000mAh battery with 18W fast charging support. Finally, the chipset is likely going to be the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730.

There isn’t much information officially known about the upcoming Mi 9T. A teaser on social media has confirmed the name and the bezel-less display. The phone recently received NBTC certification in Thailand as well as NCC certification in Taiwan. There are also rumours that the Mi 9T is going to be unveiled in Russia later this month, and based on the latest leak, it could come to Dubai as well. But nothing is known as of now about the company’s plan for an India launch.
