REDMI 9 Full Review - Your Budget Friendly All Around Smartphone

Guys when I came home from work today, I just saw another package in front of my door and guess what it's another? Nine, probably nine is my lucky number for this year. Probably I should use nine in the lottery. Who knows I might win from the Redmi Note 9s to the Redmi Note 9 pro and to the Redmi Note 9, this ultra budget phone does pack a lot of punch join me. As I unveil the Redmi 9. We can see the Redmi nines package is almost like the ones from the Redmi Note, 9 series very simple and at the size you can see it's Redmi nine and nothing else. At the back.

It's pretty clean right now, let's call on our favorite blade, so we just simply need to slice it on three corners there. So right now, all you need to do is just to take off the box. There you go out of the box. We can see that there's another little box where it sports the sim ejector tool, your warranty card and your user guide, your smoke black jelly case, not bad and, of course, the phone unit itself. But before that, but before that, let's see what's left inside the box, there's your USB type-c cable and your 10 watts charger.

Now, let's just simply peel the plastic off the phone and there we go. This is my favorite part, taking the plastic out of the phone there you go, you can see the phone, it's nice. The phone looks nice from behind. It just reminds me of the Redmi k30 or the Poco x2. Look at the back.

Here's the ring, your here's, your four camera at the back looks nice only that it's not shiny at the bottom. We have the loudspeaker USB type-c port microphone in and your older jack on my right. We can see the power button and your volume rocker. On top, we have the IR and your noise cancellation mic and on the left side we can see the sim tray wherein you can host two NATO sims and one micro SD card. The camera definitely is a big jump from that of the Redmi 8 Redmi 8 used to have two cameras, and it looks much, much like the Redmi 8a.

All I can say right now: the Redmi 9 is a major upgrade from the Redmi 8. Let me show you why the four cameras here at the back is the major upgrade. We can see that there's a 13mp wide sensor, 8mp ultrawide sensor, 5mp, macro lens and, of course, your 2mp depth sensor, coupled with the LED flash and your fingerprint scanner really. This is one big step forward from the Redmi 8 and up front. There's your teardrop notch, 8 megapixel front camera, which completes the outer specs of the phone.

The screen is a 6.53 IPS LCD 1080p. Take note. It's a 1080p, corning gorilla, glass, 3 protection, which really, I can say, is a major upgrade from the 720p of the Redmi 8 and, of course, from the competitor's 720p. This proves to be the better choice. To be honest with you, the screen isn't really that bad being an IPS LCD on this category, I can say it's pretty clear, watching movies playing games.

I really don't have much problem but of course, under the direct sunlight, I had a little difficulty taking a look at the screen, except I take a shade. Swiping left and right on the screen is a breeze. I don't see any lags on this phone, not even a bit, which is quite surprising, and this phone comes with the MediaTek g80, which is one cost friendly processor. But it's a performer. Take a quick look at an tutu.

I was quite shocked with the score 186 000 points. Really. This should be something now breaking it down. We have CPU has 74 000, GPU, 33, 000 memory, 37, 000 and UX is 40 000. , taking a walk at i22.

It just garnered at 26 000 points with an accuracy of 22 000 which can match any snapdragon 7 series. Now moving on to geek bench, we have a 340 single core points and 11034 multi-core score. This phone has a 5020 milliampere hours battery, which supports up to 18 watts. Charger out of the box will have a 10 watts charger. So we borrow the 30 watts charger from another Xiaomi phone.

It does charge up to 17 watts based on our OFNI watt meter and guess what we completed charging from 19 to 100 in two hours and 27 minutes now running, PC, Mark's battery stress test. We were able to nudge a 13r screen on time, which is not bad for a phone like this one now checking DRM info. This one is interesting. It has a level one security for Wi-Fi, which means you can watch HD movies on Netflix on this phone. Now, let's check the fingerprint scanner upon trying it out.

I can say it's not that slow. To be honest, it's quite responsive, of course, not as fast as the flagship from Xiaomi, but this one is not that bad playing mobile legend. I can unlock HFR mode using the high graphics settings, which is not bad for entry level phone like this one and gameplay, I can say there is minimal, lags. I cannot say that completely. There is no lag, but I do feel that there's a little of lag, but frequency of occurrence is not really that high.

The gameplay is pretty good. To be honest with you for a budget phone like this, I was amazed. I was able to enjoy mobile legend on this phone. Taking a quick look at Call of Duty, I was able to use high frame rate and medium graphics quality on this game. At some point, I can say that the game is sluggish.

I cannot say that this phone is really built for heavy games like the call of duty, but at the end I was able to finish on top thanks to my good skills. I'd say the call of duty does eat up a lot of resources. After playing Call of Duty. I can see the phone becomes a little sluggish, but it takes a few seconds for it to become normal again to the camera. I can say the rear, shooter 13 mp is just average.

Furthermore, I cannot say that it's really something that packs a lot of punch, but, to be honest with you, it's just really, really average taking some outdoor shots. Furthermore, I can see that it lacks some sharpness that I was looking inside the picture trying the macro lens. Furthermore, I can say that it still needs improvement. Hopefully it could be corrected by a software update taking some indoor shot. I can say the color is not bad.

To be honest with you, the place is not really well lit. It just uses some yellow lights, and it's a bit dim, but to be able to take some photos like this. It's really not bad. Now, let's try the zoom lens on this phone. Here's, the 1x, the 2x and the 10x I can see on the 10x.

The picture becomes a bit blurred. Well, to be honest with you, I don't really expect too much from this phone now. Moving to the selfie camera, I can see the selfie camera is really awesome to be able to take some good pictures for a budget phone like this. I can see it's really sharp here, camera a bit so the front camera did bounce back with some awesome shots. Now, let's try the video camera taking photos out of the 1080p and 60fps setting.

I can say it's quite shaky jittery. I can say that you really need a gimbals to make the videos on this camera. More stable, but the quality isn't really that bad. Now, taking a look at the video camera on front, I can say this: one is a lot more stable than the one from the rear. I'm also using my bare hand on this one, and yet it's not so shaky, which is quite surprising now guys.

I know that all of you wants to know the price of this phone. All I can say is that it's really jaw dropping sharpies, Xiaomi official global store in the Philippines. It's just 6 990. Check the link below. If you want to buy this phone, it's really, really budget friendly.

Now with a budget phone like this, everybody can look good and professional during meeting on Zoom and on Google Hangouts, given its price and its specs, I can say this phone is really one phone to have when you're on budget.
