​Xiaomi is launching a new series of phones in China on June 21.

It might launch two phones which are likely to be called Mi CC9e and Mi CC9 Meitu.

Xiaomi will launch a new series of phone in China on June 21, company Co-founder Lei Jun has confirmed. Without naming the number or the name of the devices that are to be launched, Jun validated a Weibo post shared by the company’s official handle. The post talks about a phone that has some technology related to portraits. If reports are to be believed, the company will launch two phones which may be called the Mi CC9e and Mi CC9 Meitu. Both the handsets were teased in the past, and the Mi CC9e even made it to the TENAA website.

The Weibo post in question uses words like “self-timer,” and “shoot the world famous smiley,” which suggests that the phones are likely to have a technology that automatically clicks portraita of users when they smile. The post is complemented by an image of an eight-year-old kid Gavin Thomas, who became an overnight sensation in China due to his ‘fake smile’ expression.
