Xiaomi has unveiled their newest addition to the Redmi Note lineup, the Redmi Note 9. This is different from the Redmi Note 9S, Redmi Note 9 Pro (India), Redmi Note 9 Pro and Redmi Note Pro Max. This is the base of the barrel in line with those devices.
New to the device is the official debut of the MediaTek Helio G85 mobile system on a chip. Based on its name, this is positioned between the Helio G80 and the Helio G90 found on other budget devices. Although, not much details have unwrapped about the mobile processor at the launch. We can assume that the chip, performance-wise, will score north of 200,000 in the latest version of AnTuTu. This is higher than the Helio G70 found on other devices that already scores at 190,000. In case, this will be promising for a budget performer.
System on a chip aside, the front flaunts a 6.53-inch panel. The display bears LCD technology with a Full HD resolution. The panel has a punch-hole cutout found on the top-right corner. As for the internals, the chip is helped by 3 or 4GB of RAM and its silo is capped at 64 or 128GB storage options.
Its cameras is a quad camera system which is lead by a 48MP Samsung Bright GM1 sensor. Auxiliary sensors are an 8MP for ultrawide shots and two 2MP cameras for Depth and Macro assistance. For selfies, the 13MP camera inside the punch-hole cutout is placed.
The Redmi Note 9 Pro has also been unveiled at the event. The device offers specifications similar to the earlier released Redmi Note 9S with some key upgrades.
It retains the Snapdragon 720G mobile platform. The 6.67-inch Full HD IPS panel with a center punch-hole cutout makes a return as well. Memory setup is either a 6GB+64GB or 6GB+128GB combo with expansion via MicroSD.
The cameras are identical to the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max. The Samsung Bright GW1, a 64MP sensor, makes a return with the device. This is backed up by an 8MP ultrawide shooter, a 5MP effort for Macro shots and 2MP for Depth assistance. A 16MP shooter is in charge for front camera duties.
