Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G Review after new updates! Watch before buying! (Xiaomi Mi 10i) Best budget 2021 By TechUtopia

Let's, do an unboxing, hands-on and review of the Redmi Note 9 pro 5g model, the cheapest smartphone in the world, with 180 megapixels, back camera and just yes, the buying links will be in the description you can purchase this beast in just on penguin and CCTV shop. It's selling under 350 dollars by the way I'm having here the 8gb van variant, which is obviously more pricey uh anyway, let's quickly go with unboxing and enjoying this video watch, it till the end, hey going just what do you have in the box? Types? USB cable like see myself here we have a charger Chinese one, but you can receive an adapter in there, of course, in the package, it's uh in the package itself from the bang good or CCT shop uh. By the way, this is a fast char, fast charging technology.33 watts. Remember that with the Redmi Note, 9 uh pro g, there you go. You can see myself over here: 20 volts, 11, volts, equal, three amperes, five walls, equal three amperes and animals, equal three emperors 12 volts, equal 2.25, amperes, you name it anyway, 33 watts, charger, uh technology with the Redmi Note, 9 5, pro g 5g, pro uh pro 5g. Sorry, oh, it's its mouthful! It's really mouthful! Sometimes I even get confused a case CPU case, which is really nice.

Some manuals in Chinese pin is inside to open our sim tray, and here is the smartphone you just here. It is the smartphone we're going to remove everything from the table and, let's just put our hands on this amazing noise. There you go. Finally, hands-on of this uh note: 9 pro 5g model, a mouthful device I'll be stopping probably to even say the name of this uh phone ingest. Nevertheless, we have corning gorilla glass 5 on the front and on the back it looks premium.

Unfortunately, maybe you can't even notice if somebody doesn't tell you, but the frames are not made from aluminum alloy, it's plastic and just it's probably a plastic kind of hybrid material used for it. It doesn't look, and it doesn't feel like plastic, but it seems that it is plastic. It does have a splash proof resistance, ip53, which again is not the true wireless uh, waterproof certification there, but again it's flash proof on the rain or sometimes, if you drop the phone outside somewhere or where is the water, but immediately, if you take it out, then it should probably survive anyway. So, let's see here the design wise. It's absolutely amazing.

This one which I'm having here this is the gray black color thinking color, like that, it's a magnet fingerprint, magnet and just seriously a lot of smudges leave there, and they are very noticeable. You'll have to wipe this glass on the back constantly. If you don't use the case, but probably most of you will use the case, which is just over here, check this out beautiful anyway. So what do we have? This is nine millimeters, thickness nine millimeter thickness for the note 9 pro 5g and 215 grams man. It's heavy.

These mid-range phones are getting heavy and bigger, as the flagship devices usually before a few years before ninjas. Only flagship devices would have large uh displays and obviously bigger batteries, etc. , etc. , and I kind of I can't see bigger batteries. No, no, that's my mistake.

I would say like they had a display. The display were larger, the material were kind of used with them, and they were. It was heavier while in the cheap mid-range world we usually maybe sometimes would have a metal or plastic design, but Emma. Nevertheless, what do we have on the front? One selfie camera frames are just kind of, I would say, like normal size, for this price tag. On the right side, we have volume, rocker and power button plus fingerprint sensor, since this is an LCD IPS.

It doesn't have in display built-in fingerprint sensor, one main speaker, one main microphone, one uh type c, USB port and one 3.5 millimeter headphone jack. Yes check it out this setup beautiful. On the left side, we have a dual sim acceptable slot and also has a SD card expansion, so you can use SD card with this device and on the top we have a noise cancellation, microphone, microphone, 2, and we have IR blaster beautiful IR. Blaster on the back- and you just remember that this device has stereo speakers, you will see can't wait to do the audio review of the note 9 uh 5g pro the quad camera setup.108 megapixels, like I told you, this is the cheapest phone in the world with 108 megapixel sensor: dual flashlight, that's it yes, beautiful design, beautiful look! This is what you get for the money. There are a few different colors of this device.

Of course, you will have the buying links in description. Let's now move to the screen review. Okay, here we go uh immediately. You will notice ninjas. This is on maximum brightness, but indeed it is an it's an it's a good display ninjas.

Maybe it's not the best uh regarding the quality, viewing angles and the screen brightness, but it is one of the fastest displays that you can get for the money uh. This is a maximum brightness. Let's go and test here. The minimum brightness check this out. This is the minimum brightness right now 50, and we're going to go to the maximum brightness and by the way, I'm having here studio lights.

Imagine if I turn them off, it's going to be a even way brighter. Have that in mind anyway, let's go quickly here to the display mode, we're going to just check before going to the YouTube review. So what do we have display? We have light mode and dark mode. Just here you go dark mode. You can schedule dart mode if you want brightness level automatic and sunlight mode adjust brightness to strong ambient light when automatic brightness is off night mode brightness, you can enable that mu.12 is just amazing, refresh rate 60 or 120 hertz is let's move to the 120 hertz's check this out. Probably you can even notice that let me just go: bring it back to 60 hertz's check this out.

You can notice ninjas, it's a big difference. It's a big difference, absolutely crazy. What a difference it is between 60 and 120 hertz check this out beautiful anyway. Let's continue next color scheme. Usually I use auto on cool side.

This is me my setup for most of my phones' system, font text, size, full screen mode. Of course, from here you can enable and run the apps in full screen mode. We can go to the full screen display uh, just a minute and turban. Okay from here you can use the full screen gestures or if you want to go with the buttons' navigation bars, that's it anyway. Let's go with the YouTube now viewing angles really impressive.

I am really surprised with the viewing angles of this device. I didn't expect this kind of viewing angles again: it's not an ambulance level, but still for LCD IPS. This is really decent. Viewing angles check this out check this out. Here we go YouTube.6.67-inch screen LCD IPS. This is ninjas a hoaxing onto, electronics LCD phone.

So this is a new company produced so far that I know that this is a new company. Remember the Xiaomi mi 10 the TCL produced their screen. Oh my god, it was amazing, Xiaomi 10 had obviously last year, the screen was just amazing: seriously. None AMOLED panel, it just looked it looked so rich 29 aspect ratios, full HD, plus resolution, so yeah. This is a full HD plus resolution screen.

We have a 395 PPI screen density hole, punch notch, so this is a kind of built-in camera thing can call like that. You can't say it built in it's not on display, can't wait, but probably in two years, we're going to see uh on display uh under display cameras covered cameras. Anyway, we have high refresh rate uh, 120, hertz high refresh rate or 60 hertz is there's no 90 hertz's. I don't know why they don't even enable 90 hertz mode. Can somebody tell me I don't know why exactly? That would be amazing if, for example, we can enable it and run PUBG at that rate, because PUBG is an option to run PUBG at 90 fps with the GFX tool anyway, touch sampling rate is 240hz brightness, it's an around 450 luces corning gorilla, glass, 5 protection.

This is a 2.5 d curve. So it's a flat screen. It's not there for the curliness. It's just a standard, 2.5 d uh curved uh design, but it is a flat screen, jazz uh. What do we have here? TUV mainland? I convert certification, beautiful, beautiful we're gonna check, also the of course.

The split screen option keyboard hectic, also we're going to check that for now I'm impressed by the way this is a HDR 60fps video. You can see myself here at 1080p. It's a good screen, man seriously. It is a good screen. I don't see any problems at all with it, especially also around the edges.

Here I don't see that it has those color black shadow lines, shadow shadows, hollow shadows, voil? with the regular version. I noticed that it does have that problem. This screen doesn't have it bro interesting there you go now using YouTube and play store in the same time. Split screen option this by the way: 1080p HDR 60 fps on the top, using this 120 hertz high refresh rate screen mode by the way, remember ninjas, you will have to unlock also 120hz for all apps. Some apps will still have a blockage.

If I can go like that, but there's a tutorial on my YouTube channel to show you how to unlock it for all apps uh anyway, let's test here that the hectic- oh, my god hectic are okay, not bad. I can feel it not the strongest in the world, but for the price tag for this mid-range phone is completely acceptable. Touch sensitivity is spot on, don't feel any lag here whatsoever beautiful anyway. This is a pass for me ninja seriously. This is a pass for me for the Redmi Note, 9 5g pro model uh great screen seriously great screen.

Now we're going to move to this speaker test audio review of this device max speakers next, for you, oh loud, I just want to remind you that the front speaker, the secondary speaker, don't think that it's the same loudness as the main speaker. Maybe it's around 40 50 percent, the loudness of the main speaker. If you understand me, okay- and I don't even expect that- maybe in two years we're going to see that the same loudness uh, we're going to have on both the channels at the left and right uh anyway, let's go with another, maybe one another one, I'm just trying to let my people know it doesn't fit the screen you can see by the stuff by yourself here. Example, this video, but all the videos, will probably everybody. Let's check this one, maybe use a different awkward uh, maybe different words make sure to subscribe him great YouTube, channel uh, a cappella voice is only in the background plus lyrics and let's now test the 3.5 millimeter headphone jack. Okay, checking out that maximum, hey to z, having here blitz, both headphones, ninjas, AA, her one you can buy them and check my review of these headphones amazing headphones under uh 28 dollars.

Great speaker great, I mean rate of your chip inside this one great best, especially the best is absolutely amazing. Loving it seriously loving it here. It could be, maybe the loudness of getting it from one to ten, eight but the best and the quality nine speakers. I would give easily nine scoring just especially because it has stereo speakers here, nine overall, I'm giving it nice call for so far. But let's go test here, the mic quality.

Here you can adjust FM radio support for the snapdragon 750 g, beautiful like see myself, it just works. Okay, of course also. You can enable the speakers here. If you just go here, switch to speaker there, you go, let's see uh anyway. It has also uh, of course, uh recorder screen recorder.

This is the voice recorder, but we have me remote since it does have IR blaster. We have a screen recorder which, of course, you can test here, resolution at 24, 0, 0 2400, with 1080, basically just 1080p resolution, video quality up to 100 megabits per second, which is crazy, quality, very high and a fixed frame rate, which you can record obviously up to 60 fps, okay time for the mic. I just recorded something first, I test 40 centimeters away, and then I test just few centimeters away check this out. One two one two: this is the mic check quality with the note 9 pro 5g model. My mouse is 40 centimeters away check the noise cancellation in the back yeah, because my window is open one two one two, my mouth is just a few centimeters away right now check the mic quality.

My name is Mohammed. Oh, my god, that's a nine score by the way this noise, which you hear in the background, my window especially open there, and I'm living next to the river, and just that's why you can see that it's the water, it's the river again, that's very impressive, very, very impressive here so far. Overall, the audio package is great ninjas, I'm giving in nine score for this price tag, since you can buy this device for 300 something dollars beautiful. Let's go next performance, wise Redmi, note, 9, uh, pro 5g model has a snapdragon 750 genes in just. Firstly, of course, we're going to show you benchmarks, we're going to show you a speed test here, but I would advise you obviously to check my speed test comparison against other smartphones against other chipsets.

Anyway, we have arena 619. I repeat: this is the 8gb ram model which I'm having with 120 GB ROM. So this is the lpddr4x and UFS 2.2 storage. We do have a SD card expansion, and we're going to quickly also show you the sensors. What kind of sensors this device has.

Let me just go immediately here to the sensors, so it has accelerometer light proximity, magnetometer gyroscope. There is no parameter, but that's fine. That's completely fine uh! Firstly, we're going to show you here the benchmarks for this one snapdragon 750 g and go to the albums go to screenshots, and let's begin here, firstly and remember by the way this review is after the updates, while maybe you saw the views before a month or so which they do, rush with reviews and obviously right now, phone is even more polished regarding the camera regarding the security patches, the increased system, security uh, obviously, software optimization, etc. , etc. Anyway, what do we have here? Redmi Note, 9 5 pro 5g, almost 350 000 points on an tutu ninjas, still not close to the density 820.

Can you believe that which was released a half year ago more than half year ago, the message to 820. ? This is the geek bench five score. There you go. I've done it three times similar scores completely similar scores, GFX bench, 91, fps, 1080p, tax and car chase is 16 fps at 1080p about 2309 resolution. Here we go another two tests, and you can check here the temperature 37 degrees.

This is the battery life or the GFX bench uh. Yes, the Redmi Note 9 5g series do have a wide one: a white one, l1 uh unlocked yes, so you can watch the Netflix at HD quality, and it does uh support open, of course, uh camera g cam for you and GPS signals. So far, very good uh, Wi-Fi speeds amazing, completely amazing. I I I basically I reach maximum that I can get with my modern, so beautiful, beautiful reach here, just in love with this device, with the of course antenna inside it, the Wi-Fi antenna is just uh blown away anyway. Let's go now test here, the of course, the phase, of course, the speed test.

I opened a few apps in the back. Let's reopen them right now, and you can see myself here, and it will open so fast uh. But what I noticed here it does close some apps map, it close it. Okay, I didn't open the IMDB. I don't know why I'm even opening it.

I didn't even open this app, but here we go we're gonna, do it right now I did open YouTube and I opened play store. So let's go again. Facebook Instagram temple run adobe daily mail maps. It closed it. I don't know why it closed the map when I even uh unlocked it.

I logged the maps check this out, so it does have some issues with the ram management. Furthermore, I don't know TripAdvisor. Furthermore, I didn't open it, so we're not going to calculate that, but I noticed that I don't know why crash is the map. Why it closed the maps. I don't know that why it's doing this, but nevertheless, overall it's great just.

I don't understand why it closed the maps. Every single app is open so far between seeing it like you see myself just the maps, it gets closed. They go again. I don't understand why it's doing that. Nevertheless, you can see by stuff here there is a slightly small improvements for the speed optimization here, but so far this is a good experience.

What I'm seeing it, of course, you're going to watch. My gaming review makes sure to make sure to check my gaming review of this device so overall uh, of course, uh. I checked to hear a mini device.12.0.7 stable one. There you go we're going to go quickly, exactly the same features which other Xiaomi devices have I'm going to just quickly go through them. Just there we go sound vibration, okay, sound effects.

This is for the headphones and everything additional settings lock screen to wake up feature is on double tap to wake up, also display. We check the display, lock, screen notifications, floating lock, screen or badges passwords privacy protection battery, apps additional settings date, language and input there you go remember this is a Chinese version. It has only these languages. I still don't understand why Chinese versions, just simply don't include the English. I just don't understand seriously.

Man special features, game, turbo, floating window, kid space, light mode, second, space and tables. That's it ninjas. Let's now move with the next tests. Okay, now I'm going to test the face ID and fingerprint sensor. Let's begin with the fingerprint sensor.

Firstly, just on touch on the side, fingerprint sensor very fast, it's very fast. I wish that the animation, maybe a little- should be a little popping out or popping in faster, but unlocking speed is seriously under 0.3 seconds. That's very fast! Indeed, beautiful. Let's go with the face ID now. Okay: let's do it face I'd fast here, but fingerprint sensor.

It is faster uh. This is probably under 0.5 seconds, while the fingerprint sensor is under 0.3, but overall I'm satisfied. Thank you, Xiaomi. Thank you. Redmi's battery life of the Redmi Note 9 uh pro 5g model ninjas.

By the way I've been rebooting it few times. Yesterday I just almost all day I spent on just an emulation test which is crazy anyway. So what do we have? Four thousand eight hundred and twenty MH battery elite polymer with the 33 watts, fast charging, uh, of course, technology uh ninjas. Regarding the battery charging test, it takes around 60 minutes to fully charge it, which is very impressive, so admit that for the mid-range world, it's not the level of the Realme offers a faster charging speed.65 volts for 350 bucks. I have to admit that obviously really will be a winner there or maybe an IQ and the screen on time.

It's around seven and a half to eight hours. You can get too up at eight hours with 120 hertz, high refresh rate enabled. So that's impressive. Of course. This is just moderate news.

Mixed apps use without gaming will have a separate results which I'm going to show you uh. Of course, in my separate video, I will do battery drain test with this device, so please make sure to check it out. Nevertheless, great battery life, with the note 9 pro 5g model, so cameras, we have a quad camera setup on the back and just different uh features with the mini 12 we're going to probably even have with the mini 12.5. I don't know when this device will receive a mini, 12.5 108 megapixel Samsung sensor on the back s5k hm 2 ninjas, with aperture of f 1.75, ultra-wide camera lens 8, megapixel, OFNI, vision, sensor. We have portrait mode, 2, megapixel, division, sensor and macro lens 2 megapixel hi nix, sensor uh.

We have on the front, and just also another Univision sensor, selfie camera, which is 16 megapixels in just 16 megapixels. Let's go here with the more night mode, 108 megapixels, short video panorama, documents, vlog, slow motion, time-lapse, dual video, AI watermark, long exposure and clone mode. A lot of different uh features with this one, and it also has a 4k support at 30fps, but there's no 60fps 1080p 60fps. Let's show you some picture samples and video samples, but I would advise you to check my full camera review of this device separate video on my YouTube channel again. Just we also have a dual mode.

With the Redmi Note: 9 uh 5g pro version, it's not j750, which I love it. This is not every single smartphone in the world from a different brand has this option. This is really neat. Uh neat feature hinges. This is right now selfie test with the Redmi Note, 9 5 g pro snapdragon 750.

We have 16 megapixel front selfie camera check this out, so you judge by yourself out uh the audio. Maybe my voice will be a little lower because I'm winning this mask because of the corona, etc. , etc. But I think you get the point. We showed you with the gimbals footage: the gimbals fee.

Okay, this is 1080p ultrawide, camera lens, handheld, footage, Redmi, note, 9 5g pro you can judge myself the video stability and the quality of ultra-wide camera lens. Okay. This is 1080p 30fps for the gimbals and see the difference between a gimbals and handheld footage. Okay, this is movie frame selfie camera test with the Redmi Note 9 5g pro. Oh, my god, it's really mouthful to pronounce the name of the these new models from Xiaomi plus when they add the t example, they add Redmi.

Note 9 t5g pro it's crazy, it's crazy anyway, movie frame. This is right. Now, color graded uh feature of uh mini supported smartphones. Obviously the mini 12. I think it has also the mini 11, not sure.

Now. This is how it looks like handheld footage, I'm using a per ROG application which you can download for free. I have the first English tutorial YouTube channel uh for this app ninjas. I can't believe that nobody before me even done it, but I want to help to everybody out there, especially those who people who have been YouTube channel, and they want to record and do some gaming reviews with the per ROG application. You can just follow my tutorial on English.

So far, what I'm seeing here, it's running completely clear to see the perv ROG options so far, I'm seeing here it is running full speed, 60fps the battle rally mode. It seems that this is the easy task for these mid-range chipsets. I'm going to try also to test these ultra-high graphics details again dropped around 10, fps 20 fps everything is maxed, I repeat, not everything is max. I will show you in the gfx2 that I didn't max everything but HDR. They say that the HDR.

It is a 2k resolution. They say that HDR, I'm not sure here I have somebody has to confirm with me ultra HD. Does it ultra HD means it's a 2k resolution, while the HDR is a full HD resolution yeah, if HDR is full HD resolution, ultra HD is 2k resolution. Okay. So my thoughts for the end Redmi Note 9 pro 5g model.

Should you buy it? What are the cons and the pros the cons for now? Just there are no there's no big problems. There are no so many cons about it. I would say maybe just few of them plastic frames. I wish they included aluminum frames, but nevertheless it still looks sturdy and high quality. In my opinion, you can't even notice that much if you don't check the specs list, ram stability uh again, the maps were just only closed, but again, uh 95 of the apps were open.

Just need slightly more improvements with the ram management and not the fastest chip for this price tag. This is not the fastest smartphone for the price technologies. You example Redmi 10 x5g and the pro version are faster with the dimension 820? U and heavy midrange. This is a heavy device. These the mid-range phones are just getting heavier and heavier and just anyway.

So what do we have? Regarding the pros? The reasons? Why should you buy it? 120 hertz LCD IPS screen one of the best LCD IPS screen for the price tag. I was completely surprised by the viewing angles by the touch sensitivity by the color scheme. Just it's its a great screen, just it's a great LCD IPS screen. It is a big difference from the standard version of the Redmi Note 9.5, and it's easily. You can notice in just in the colors interviewing angles in everything uh anyway, snapdragon 750 g with the six or eight GB ram variant, 108 megapixels back camera.

So this is the reason why many people will probably get this device, because this is the cheapest phone in the world. With this high-res sensor, 5g and 4g LTE uh, of course, bands NFC support IR, blaster, FM radio, SD card expansion; uh it has OTG OTA, you name it. It has everything: ninjas plus stereo speakers, stereo speakers beautiful. Regarding the battery. It's a 4 800 image battery with 33 watts and zero to 100 in around 16 minutes, beautiful design, beautiful package hearing just again another, maybe con.

But again I can't say it's a reason not to buy it. Is this just smudgy? It extracts a lot of a lot of these uh oils and fingerprints, but nevertheless this is completely acceptable, great package. I can't say that overall offers the best of the best for this price tag. Like I said here still Redmi 10 x, 5g pro model, it's a great buy for around 300 350 dollars. If you can afford yourself to buy something more expensive, then go with the Xiaomi me 10 teenagers.

If you can go for 500, but again, that's a different segment. Now, that's a different world bro anyway, have a great day. Uh you'll have the buying links in the description to purchase the normal version or the 5g model support my channel. In that way. I wish you all the best, nevertheless, and just you're not going to make a mistake if you buy this device, I'm just showing my own opinions that I suspected more from the snapdragon 750g, it's closed there, it's very close and not a big difference between the Messi 820, but it can't beat it, especially in the benchmarks and in the speed test, you will see the differences there masala and have a great day you.
