Find X9 series design officially revealed

Apart from making the launch date official, Yibao has also revealed the complete look of the Find X9 series smartphones. In a separate Weibo post, he has revealed that both the Find X9 and the Find X9 Pro will use a new velvet sanding process for the back glass. This new glass revitalisation process is said to give the back of the smartphones a velvety finish.

Yibao claims that this new process "imbues glass with a refined, understated velvety metallic sheen while creating a velvety, skin-friendly feel, giving the Find X9 series a unique velvet sanding finish". This new finish is said to incorporate micro-level precision to eliminate any rough or dull texture.

Additionally, both phones will also feature an industry-leading cold carving process, which will help create a seamless transition between the camera deco and the back panel. It will help deliver a continuous and uninterrupted in-hand feel. Yibao claims that this new process "completely eliminate the splicing feeling, so that the lens module and the back panel are connected naturally, as if they were one"
