Realme 9 Pro
Key specs
Critic consensus
“The realme 9 Pro has a few highlights: the battery life is good, the casing looks nice, and the processor has a lot of power. However, it is never really enough for realme's mid-range phone to achieve top rates in the class, and thus it remains a solid phone that cannot inspire. The somewhat inaccurate fingerprint sensor and missing features like optical image stabilization also contribute to that. At the same time, the realme phone does not have any serious weaknesses, so it can be quite worthwhile at a low price: the stable chassis, hardly fluctuating WLAN speeds and the good performance rates, as well as the 120 Hz screen with adaptive frame rate, make the smartphone well usable in everyday use.”
“The Realme 9 Pro arguably has a misleading name, given that its camera and performance don’t always operate at a professional standard. Still, it earns its place among other affordable mid-range Androids for a number of reasons, with its enduring battery, enjoyable display and easy software arguably enough to sway users who prefer practicality over state-of-the-art power. Just make sure you check out the competition as there are many great phones around this price point.”
In Depth
Coming out of India, Realme has released two new phones to its line-up, the Realme 9 Pro and the 9 Pro Plus. You can find the information on the 9 Pro Plus here.
The two varieties have some things in common while others differ, and it doesn’t come down to the 9 Pro Plus being better in every circumstance.
What’s the Same
- Android 12 with Realme UI
- The same amount of storage and RAM
- 16MP selfie camera
- Headphone jack
- Available in Midnight Black, Aurora Green, Sunrise Blue
What’s Different
- 6.6-inch IPS LCD
- Qualcomm SM6375 Snapdragon 695 5G processor
- MicroSD slot available
- Side-mounted fingerprint scanner
- 64MP camera
The Realme 9 Pro’s processor clocked in faster than the 9 Pro Plus so that Plus on the end of the name doesn’t always mean better.
Small details like a slightly larger display and a MicroSD slot make the 9 Pro marginally better than the Plus.
However, the two phones show a lot of similarities at the same time with capabilities that added up to good reviews. Most of the changes are more of a small step ahead than a vast differential.
Business Insider India says, “The Realme 9 Pro+ 5G can be considered for its faster-charging speed, better processor, and more storage capacity. But if a better display and slightly better camera is a priority then the Realme 9 Pro 5G is recommended.”
