Redmi Note 9 Specs & Features

Redmi Note 9 boasts almost the same rear design as its elder siblings from the Note 9 family. It has a clean shiny back panel with a square camera system. A key difference that you may have already noticed is the placement of the physical fingerprint sensor. It’s present on the rear here instead of the edge – as it the case with the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max.

Redmi Note 9 features a6.53-inch Full HD+ IPS LCD displaywith a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and 2340 x 1080 resolution. The punch-hole has been moved to the top-left edge and it houses a 13MP selfie snapper onboard.

This will be the first phone to launch with the MediaTekHelio G85chipset in India. This chipset is a slightly overclocked variant of the gaming-centric Helio G80 chipset. You will also find up to 4GB of LPPDDR4x RAM and up to 128GB of UFS 2.1 built-in storage onboard.

As for the quad-cameras, you have a primary 48MP (f/1.79) Samsung GM1 sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide lens with 118-degree FOV, a 2MP macro lens, and a 2MP depth sensor. Finally, Redmi Note 9 also comes equipped with a5,020mAh batterypack and 18W fast-charging – the same as the Redmi Note 9 Pro.

This phone comes in three colorways, namely Forest Green, Polar White, and Midnight Grey. It is priced starting at $199 (around Rs. 14,999) but we expect it to undercut the Narzo 10’s Rs. 12,000 price tag.
