Earlier rumors revealed that the company is working on two Android One phones codenamed ‘bamboo_sprout’ and ‘cosmos_sprout’ with an in-display fingerprint scanner and a 32-megapixel front camera with 4-in-1 pixel binning technology that combines the information from four pixels to create one large pixel.
Recently a Xiaomi smartphone with the model number M1906F9SH got certified by the FCC, which could be the Mi A3 or the A3 Lite. This shows a similar rear camera arrangement and Hybrid Dual SIM support as the Mi CC9 and CC9e that was introduced earlier this month, so the Mi A3 and the Mi A3 Lite will likely have similar specifications.
