Xiaomi Redmi 9

The Redmi 9 is expected to be a major upgrade over its predecessor, the Redmi 8. It is expected that the Redmi 9 will be powered by the Snapdragon 450 chipset from Qualcomm. The phone will come with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage on the top-end variant. There is also a chance of the phone being offered in a lower capacity and RAM version. Like most other handsets in this price range, the Redmi 9 will support dual SIM cards. The phone also gets a triple slot that takes in two SIM cards and a microSD card at the same time.

The USP of the Redmi 8 series from 2019 was the large battery capacity these phones came with. The same is expected in 2020 with the Redmi 9 likely to feature a large 5,000mAh battery under the hood. Additionally, the phone will also support 18W fast charging with the fast charger being offered inside the box. The phone will also feature a USB Type-C port for wired connectivity.

The Redmi 9 is expected to feature a 6.3-inch IPS LCD display with FHD+ resolution. This will be a major improvement over the HD+ displays that we have seen on the Redmi 8 series. The phone is expected to come with a dual-camera setup at the rear with a 13-megapixel primary camera and a 5-megapixel secondary camera. The handset also gets a single LED flash at the rear and supports HDR images as well. The phone can record FHD videos at 30fps in the highest setting. At the front, the phone gets a single 8-megapixel camera. Connectivity options on the Redmi 9 are comprehensive with the phone supporting Wi-Fi f/g/n, BlueTooth 5.0 and GPS with A-GPS. The phone also gets a 3.5mm audio jack as well as an array of sensors including a light sensor, a proximity sensor, an accelerometer, and a gyroscope.
