Just a week after the launch of the Realme 6 series, its arch-nemesis Xiaomi has gone ahead and refreshed the Redmi Note 9 Pro & Redmi Note 9 Pro Max lineup today.

Redmi Note 9 Pro

Redmi Note 9 Pro has been launched through only one online event in India. The device comes as a successor to the Redmi Note 8 Pro.

It has a new Snapdragon 700-series chipset, center punch-hole display, a square camera bump, and a larger battery.

Redmi Note 9 Pro: Specifications and Features

Starting with the design, the Redmi Note 9 series advances its Aura design philosophy but simplifies things a bit with the Aura Balance design in this smartphone.

You’ll get a minimal, shiny back panel with no additional jazz and Gorilla Glass 5 protection. Now there is a new rectangular setup with the square camera module and LED flash.

The square camera bump is really huge and you will definitely see the device shaking on the table. There is a physical fingerprint sensor that doubles as a power button on the side.

Talking about the front, the Redmi Note 9 series mi in India is the first Redmi phone that comes with a ‘punch-hole cutout‘ in India.

It has a 6.67-inch full-HD + IPS LCD panel with 20: 9 aspect ratios, 2400 x 1080-pixel resolution, and Gorilla Glass 5 protection.

Now, one thing we would love to see on the Note 9 Pro is the high refresh rate display instead of the standard 60 Hz panel. You get a 120Hz touch sampling rate on the board, which is fine.

Redmi Note 9 Pro is the second smartphone to be launched in India with the new Snapdragon 720G chipset.

Its competitor Realme 6 Pro was the first and if you are wondering how Snapdragon 720G is compared to Snapdragon 730G?

The chipset is paired to 6GB with LPDDR4x RAM and 128GB with UFS 2.1 storage, which can be expanded up to 512GB via a dedicated microSD card slot in tow.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro runs Android 10-based MIUI 11 out-of-the-box.

One of the most unexpected changes users get on the Redmi Note 9 Pro is the downgrade from the 64MP primary sensor to the 48th primary sensor.
