Redmi 9 - Helio G80 processor, Quad cameras, 5020mAh battery - Android

The Redmi 9 is powered by the latest MediaTek Helio G80 octa-core processor, an entry-level chipset that we also saw on the Realme 6i. You can get it with 3GB/32GB or 4GB/64GB of RAM and expandable storage.

On the front, we have a 6.54-inch FHD+ IPS display, with yesterday’s waterdrop notch for the 8-megapixel selfie camera.

The back has a similar design to the Redmi K30 series. The quad-cameras and the fingerprint scanner are in the middle, sitting on a glass in a vertical orientation.

Just like most entry-level phones, the Redmi 9 compensates by having a large 5,020mAh battery. There’s also an IR blaster that lets you control your non-smart appliances.
