Should you buy Mi 9T or not? If yes, why?

If you are looking for a new Android smartphone and your budget is around Rs 30,000 then we seriously recommend you to grab the OnePlus 6T because now it’s sold for Rs 27,999 on Amazon India. However, if you want a fully bezel-less phone without any notch then it’s better to wait for Mi 9T which is expected to arrive in India as Redmi K20.
