The phone is claimed to be similar to Xiaomi's Mi CC9e that was launched in China earlier this month. It is said to carry an HD+ display and a waterdrop-style notch design. The Chinese company will bring the Mi A3 as a successor to the Mi A2 that was launched in many global markets including India last year.
