The next iteration of realme‘s extremely popular budget to mid-range series is almost upon us. The company on Monday officially launched the realme 9i in Vietnam, and the rest of the lineup that will be comprised of the realme 9, realme 9 Pro, realme 9 Pro+ are set to follow soon. From these, the realme 9 is the latest to bag Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) certification.
Carrying model number RMX3388, the alleged realme 9 has also popped up on the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), hinting that its launch is just around the corner in both Indian and Eurasian markets (via DealNTech).
Sadly, neither of the listings delve into the specs of the device, meaning that we will have to manage with nothing but a model number now. Still, we can expect more leaks and official teasers in the coming days now that the phone has gained certification.
Thailand’s National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) has similarly confirmed that the realme 9 Pro, 9 Pro+, and 9i+ will have model numbers RMX3472, RMX3393, and RMX3491 respectively, so it’s possible that the entire lineup will be launched together.
Also possible is that all of the aforementioned phones will feature a design, not unlike the freshly launched realme 9i. This one is equipped with the 6nm Snapdragon 680 4G chipset and a 5000mAh battery. Its display is sized 6.6-inch and has an FHD+ resolution. Priced VND 6,290,000 (~$277), it is available in blue and black and 6GB+128GB config.
