Xiaomi has an EOS (End of Support) smartphone list on its website. The company updates this list with newer devices in a timely fashion.

Recently, the company updated this list with three popular budget phones from 2020. These handsets will no longer receive software updates going forward.

The below-listed are the latest Xiaomi smartphones to reach their end of life.

• Redmi Note 9
• Redmi 9
• Poco M2

All of these products were released in 2020. They debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 10.

Throughout their life, these devices received two major MIUI and Android updates. Therefore, they currently boot MIUI 13 based on Android 12.

This means the software on board these handsets is about 2 years old now. However, they are able to perform normally as they can run almost all Android applications without any issues.

So users need not worry about upgrading to a newer phone unless they want better hardware or 5G connectivity. However, they should keep in mind that there won’t be any security updates, except for something critical (very rare).

The aforementioned smartphones are some of the best of their time. Xiaomi sold millions of them across the world. So you will probably continue seeing them in public despite them reaching their end of support.

Do you own any of these devices? If so, share your experience with us in the comment section below or on our official social media handles.

The post Xiaomi drops software support for Redmi Note 9, Redmi 9, and Poco M2 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Recent findings revealed that the almost 3-year-old Redmi Note 9 series will be updated to MIUI 14. A few days later, the same source has now disclosed when can we expect the rollout to begin.

Unsurprisingly, users of these smartphones will have to wait a bit longer. But thankfully, not so much.

According to Xiaomiui, the following handsets will get access to the MIUI 14 update based on Android 12 in Q2 2023.

• Redmi Note 9
• Redmi Note 9S
• Redmi Note 9 Pro
• Redmi Note 9 Pro Max
• Poco M2 Pro

For the unaware, all the aforementioned devices are based on the same platform. They only differ in some aspects.

The publication suggests that the latest MIUI for these phones may release around April-May. In other words, users will have to wait around three months.

Apart from the smartphones listed above, the MIUI 14 update will be also released for the Redmi 10X series, Redmi 9, and Poco M2. Even for them, the software build will be based on Android 12, rather than Android 13. 

But unfortunately, the update release timeline for them is not known at the moment. The rollout may most probably occur around the same time.

All of these handsets have already received two MIUI updates and two Android updates. MIUI 14 will be most likely their last major software update.

The post Redmi Note 9 Series MIUI 14 Update Timeline Tipped appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Redmi Note 9 was launched in 2020. The smartphone also goes by the name of Redmi 10X 4G in China. Despite being more than two years old, the handset is still being sold in multiple regions at cheaper rates.

However, we urge you not to invest in this phone anymore. Because Xiaomi may soon end software support for it.

According to a report by Xiaomiui, Xiaomi has stopped developing internal MIUI builds for the Redmi Note 9. 

This suggests that the device will not receive any major software updates going forward. At the same time, it also hints at the imminent end of software support.

The smartphone debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. It was later updated to MIUI 12, followed by Android 11, MIUI 12.5, and MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition.

Earlier this year, the company started testing MIUI 13 based on Android 12 for this handset. This update is currently available for a select few users. We expect it to reach all users across different regions in the coming weeks.

Going by the details above, the software support has not been terrible for the Redmi Note 9. But we cannot deny the fact that the update delivery has been very slow.

Currently, Xiaomi is the only major Chinese OEM to lag in software support. Hopefully, the firm improves in this regard before it’s too late.

Xiaomi is known for providing two Android updates and three MIUI updates for the majority of its smartphones. However, most phones powered by MediaTek usually only get fewer updates when compared to the Qualcomm models. Thankfully, that’s not the case for three popular MediaTek-powered Xiaomi handsets from 2020.

According to Xiaomiui, Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and POCO M2 will not only receive MIUI 13 but  Android 12 as well. The trio has already got an internal update based on the latest version of Android.

Most of the time, Xiaomi limits the budget MediaTek smartphones to a single or no Android update. However, the company manages to deliver at least one MIUI update.

The aforementioned phones have already received an Android update in the form of Android 11. Hence, Android 12 will be their second Android update. At the same time, MIUI 13 will also be their second major MIUI update as all three debuted with MIUI 11 and were updated to MIUI 12.

This means the forthcoming Android 12-based MIUI 13 update will likely be the last major software update for Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and POCO M2. Finally, it is worth noting that the former two handsets are also known as Redmi 9 Prime and Redmi 10X 4G in India and China respectively.

Xiaomi has been rolling out MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for eligible devices since late August. The ‘Global’ variant of the Redmi Note 9 recently got access to this latest version of MIUI. Just a few days later, the Indian version has also started receiving the new build.

Xiaomi has begun to seed MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for the Redmi Note 9 in India. The fresh system update for the handset arrives with build number V12.5.2.0.RJOINXM.

Since MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition is all about optimizations rather than features, uses won’t see any visual changes after updating to the latest software. That said, the update additionally also brings along October 2021 security patches.

Like any other OTA system update, this one is also being rolled out in batches. Therefore, the build is currently labeled ‘Stable Beta’, which is Xiaomi’s way of saying limited availability.

Anyway, the update should be available for all users in India in the coming days. At the same time, we also expect the update to reach the remaining regional variants of the Redmi Note 9 as well.

The Redmi Note 9 launched with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. So far, the smartphone has only received a single MIUI and Android update in the form of MIUI 12 and Android 11.

The post Redmi Note 9 receives MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update in India appeared first on Gizmochina.

MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition is currently the newest version of Xiaomi’s mobile operating system. The company has been rolling it out to eligible devices worldwide since August. The latest handsets to receive it are Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9.

Xiaomi has started seeding MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update for Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9. The new version of MIUI is only available for the ‘Global’ variants of these phones at the moment.

The fresh system update arrives with the following build numbers.

• Redmi 9 (Global) – V12.5.3.0.RJCMIXM
• Redmi Note 9 (Global) – V12.5.2.0.RJOMIXM

Apart from bringing certain changes, the latest software update for these two smartphones also bumps up the security patch level to October 2021. Also, the software builds are in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase, which means they are being rolled out in batches.

We expect the update to reach the remaining regional variants of these two phones in the coming days. For those unaware, the Redmi 9 discussed here is known as Redmi 9 Prime in India. At the same time, the Redmi Note 9 mentioned here is called Redmi 10X 4G in China.

Hence, those devices will be also receiving the MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition update very soon.

The Redmi Note 9 aka Redmi 10X 4G started receiving MIUI 12.5 based on Android 11 in July. A month later, the update is now available for all the regional variants of the handset, except for one. Let’s take a look at the status of the latest system update for this smartphone.

The Redmi 10X 4G in China got access to Android 11 way back in February. However, the international version of this phone called Redmi Note 9 is receiving last year’s Android along with MIUI 12.5 only now.

The Indian variant of the Redmi Note 9 was first to get MIUI 12.5 update based on Android 11 a few weeks after the update was released for the original Redmi 10X 4G in China. In the following weeks, Xiaomi rolled out the same update for other regional variants of the device.

At present, the Redmi Note 9 (Redmi 10X 4G) MIUI 12.5 update is live for the following regional variants of the phone.

• China – V12.5.2.0.RJOCNXM
• India – V12.5.1.0.RJOINXM
• Global – V12.5.1.0.RJOMIXM
• Turkey – V12.5.1.0.RJOTRXM
• Indonesia – V12.5.1.0.RJOIDXM
• Russia – V12.5.1.0.RJORUXM
• EEA – V12.5.1.0.RJOEUXM

The only regional variant yet to receive this update is ‘Taiwan’. We expect that version of the smartphone to also get the update in the coming days.

Having said that, even for the above-listed variants, the latest software update is being rolled out in batches. In simpler words, the update will take some time to reach every user.

Xiaomi finally started rolling out the Android 11 update for the Redmi Note 9 at the end of June. This update is now finally live in India. Unlike other regional variants, except for China, the model for India is also being bumped to MIUI 12.5 alongside last year’s Android.

The MIUI 12.5 update based on Android 11 for the Redmi Note 9 in India arrives with build number V12.5.1.0.RJOINXM. The software build is in the Stable Beta phase, which means it is being rolled out in batches.

Hence, the latest system update for the handset should be only available for a select few users in the country right now. Anyway, all users will be getting it in the coming days.

The Redmi Note 9 launched in the first half of 2020 with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. The smartphone was updated to MIUI 12 last year. Since it has only received a single major MIUI update so far, it should be eligible for MIUI 13.

It is worth noting that the Redmi Note 9 sold in international markets is known as Redmi 10X 4G. That device got Android 11 update way back in February, followed by MIUI 12.5 in July.

It’s a pity that customers outside China have to wait longer to experience the new software on some of the Xiaomi phones. We hope the company improves its software update delivery with the release of MIUI 13.

The Redmi Note 9 launched months after the release of Redmi Note 9 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro Max, and Redmi Note 9S. Despite that, it debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. Now, almost a year after its launch, the device has finally started receiving the Android 11 update.

The Redmi Note 9 for international markets is known as Redmi 10X 4G in China. Usually, when there’s a Chinese variant of a Xiaomi device, it gets the new system update first.

Hence, the Redmi 10X 4G was the first to get MIUI 12 last year. Unsurprisingly, it was also the first to receive Android 11 earlier this year. Four months later, Xiaomi has eventually begun to roll out the very same update for the internal version of this handset called Redmi Note 9.

At the moment, the Redmi Note 9 Android 11 update is only available for the ‘Global’ and ‘Russia’ variants. The update bears build numbers V12.0.1.0.RJOMIXM and V12.0.1.0.RJORUXM respectively.

The mentioned software builds are in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase. This means they are only available for a select few users as part of the batched rollout. 

Anyway, the update should make its way to all the units of these variants as well as the remaining regional variants (EEA, Turkey, India, Taiwan, Indonesia) in the coming days.

Last year, Redmi, the sub-brand of Xiaomi launched a China-exclusive smartphone series called Redmi 10X. This series includes a single 4G model called Redmi 10X. The said device debuted with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. It was soon updated to MIUI 12 and has now started receiving the Android 11 update as well.

The Android 11 update for Redmi 10X 4G is currently in the ‘Stable Beta’ phase with build number V12.0.2.0.RJOCNXM. In other words, it is only available for select users in China.

But the update should make its way to more users if there’s no issue with this build. Similarly, Redmi Note 9 could also soon receive this update.

Because the Redmi 10X 4G is sold as Redmi Note 9 in global markets. Since it is available in almost all the countries where Xiaomi has its presence, the handset runs multiple regional variants of MIUI, such as Global, EEA, Indonesia, Russia, Turkey, India, and Taiwan.

All these above-mentioned variants of Redmi Note 9 may start getting the Android 11 update in the coming days. That said, this phone is also eligible for MIUI 12.5 update. As per the schedule, Xiaomi may start rolling out that update in late Q2 2021.

Although Xiaomi sells expensive smartphones, the company’s cheaper handsets are popular worldwide. In fact, in India. Xiaomi is known as Redmi among commoners, thanks to value for money phones like Redmi A series, Redmi number series, and Redmi Note series. The latter series has now achieved a huge milestone, as per Xiaomi.

Yesterday, ahead of the Mi 11 global launch event, Xiaomi India announced a brag-worthy achievement on its various social media handles.

The Chinese smartphone maker revealed that it has shipped over 200 million units of Redmi Note series phones globally to date. This data is sourced from the firm’s own ‘Xiaomi Data Center’.

It is not surprising to learn that the global shipments of the Redmi Note series have exceeded 200 million units since its inception. This series has been the heart of Xiaomi’s product lineup ever since it was introduced.

Redmi Notes have been unbeatable in their price segment for a very long time. However, that began to change when realme entered the scene. But being an established product lineup, they are still as popular as they were before.

That said, Xiaomi is known for announcing its milestones ahead of releasing new devices. Hence, we think the Redmi Note 10 series is just around the corner. The upcoming series is reported to include two models, namely Redmi Note 10 and Redmi Note 10 Pro. As of now, we are only aware of the storage configurations and color variants of these handsets.

Chinese tech giant Xiaomi has officially launched the Redmi Note 9T 5G which is the global variant of the Redmi Note 9 5G that was launched in China recently. The company also announced the Redmi 9T packing a Qualcomm chipset.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 9T 5G packs a 6.53-inch IPS LCD display with an FHD+ resolution of 1080p. The device adopts a waterdrop screen while the rear adopts a vertically aligned quad-camera setup. The display packs 450 nits and has a standard 60Hz refresh rate.

The Redmi Note 9T 5G is powered by a 7nm MediaTek Dimensity 800U chipset paired with 6GB of RAM. The device also comes with 64GB and 128GB storage options. The phone also comes with a splash-proof build as well as dual speakers just like the Chinese version.

For optics, the Redmi Note 9T 5G packs a triple camera setup. The setup includes a 48MP Quad-Bayer sensor with f/1.8 aperture, a 2MP depth sensor, and a 2MP macro sensor. There is no Ultrawide camera on this model, unlike the China-only Redmi Note 9 5G. At the front, there is a 13MP selfie camera with f/2.25 optics. 

Keeping the lights on is a 5,000mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. Xiaomi claims up to 3 years of continuous use without significant degradation.

The Redmi Note 9T 5G is available in two colors – Daybreak Purple and Nightfall Black. As for the prices, there is an early bird offer of €199 for the 4GB+64GB version while the 4GB+128GB version comes in at €249. The prices will increase slightly to €229 and €269 respectively after the promo. The models will be available from Xiaomi’s website and also from other third-party retailers.

Redmi 9T – Specs, Features & Pricing

Xiaomi also launched the Redmi 9T for the global market. The device has several features that make it stand out while retaining the affordable pricing for which Xiaomi is known. 

The Redmi 9T features a 6.53-inch IPS LCD with a resolution of 1080p just like the Redmi Note 9T 5G. The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 662 processor paired with 4GB or 6GB of RAM while there is 64GB or 128GB of storage.

On the camera aspect, the Redmi 9T packs a Quad-camera setup, one sensor higher than the Redmi Note 9T 5G. The camera configuration is the same just the addition of a fourth 8MP f/2.2 ultrawide shooter. The front camera is an 8MP selfie camera.

The battery is a 6000mAh cell, another impressive addition. The phone also supports 18W fast charging. The phone also comes with an infrared sensor, 3.5mm headphone jack, and optional NFC.

As for the price, the Redmi 9T starts at €159 for a 4GB+64GB model (€10 more for NFC) and goes up to €189 for the 4GB+128GB model (again, €10 more for NFC).

Lower-midrange smartphones is a very good niche for those who do not need the best multimedia device but still want great performance and battery life while saving money. Thanks to Xiaomi and Realme, there are several lower-midrange devices with a very high value for money in the market. Realme just decided to launch its latest one, Realme 7i, in the global market. That is the reason why we decided to publish this lower-midrange comparison. Realme 7i will compete with best-sellers such as POCO M3 and Redmi Note 9, but who is really the best? This comparison will highlight the differences and try to answer this question.

Xiaomi POCO M3 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Realme 7i

Design

The POCO M3 is very affordable but it does not have the most elegant design out there. It comes with a waterdrop notch and a very big area for the camera module. Even though the yellow variant is attractive, its two rivals are definitely a better choice. Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 is great because it sports a glass back and a water-repellent design, but Realme 7i is beautiful as well. Redmi Note 9 and Realme 7i also look more modern because they have a punch-hole display instead of the waterdrop notch found on the POCO M3.

Display

The Realme 7i is the only device of this comparison featuring a 90 Hz refresh rate, but it still loses the display comparison because it has a below-average HD+ resolution. With the POCO M3 and the Redmi Note 9, you actually get a Full HD+ display with a higher level of detail, which we consider more important than a higher refresh rate. If you are a gamer, you might prefer the Realme 7i because the 90 Hz refresh rate offers big advantages during gaming sessions, but for the rest, you should go for the POCO M3 as it comes with a 1080p display and stereo speakers offering a better audio experience.

Hardware/Software

A lot of people trust Qualcomm processors more than MediaTek ones. But the Helio G85 found on the Redmi Note 9 is actually more impressive than the Snapdragon 662 found on the POCO M3 and the Asian version of the Realme 7i. If you are from Europe, then you get the Helio G85 even with the Realme 7i, so you should choose it as it offers up to 8 GB of RAM instead of the 6 GB found on the Redmi Note 9. But if you are from Asia, then Redmi Note 9 is a more powerful handset.

Camera

The camera king here is the Realme 7i for a simple reason: it has a better main sensor. We are talking about a 64 MP main camera paired with an 8 MP ultrawide sensor and a pair of 2 MP lenses for macro and depth. With Realme 7i, you even get a better front camera with a higher 16 MP resolution. Given its better main camera and front camera, Realme 7i is the best camera phone.

Battery

The battery capacity of the Realme 7i changes depending on the region: in Asia, you get just 5000 mAh, while the European Realme 7i has 6000 mAh. If you are from Europe and you need the best battery phone, the Realme 7i is your choice. Otherwise, you should go for the 6000 mAh battery of the POCO M3.

Price

All of these phones are priced around €150/$180, but you may find different street prices depending on the region. The European Realme 7i is the best phone of the comparison if we exclude the display resolution. If you want a Full HD+ display, then Redmi Note 9 is a better option, but POCO M3 offers a longer battery life than Redmi Note 9 and stereo speakers (but on the other hand, it lacks an ultrawide camera).

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note9 series of smartphones a week ago in China. And as per the reports, first sale of Redmi Note9 5G Pro exceeds several thousand units in the country. Additionally, Redmi has also shared the official sale figures of the entire Note9 series.

Redmi Note9 series comprising of the Note9 5G, Note9 Pro 5G, and Note9 4G went on sale at 0:00 China time on December 1. And according to Redmi’s official Weibo post, the first sale of the entire Note9 series exceeds 300,000 units. Previously, Xiaomi sold about 300,000 units of the Redmi Note 8 Pro in first sale back in 2019. That said, the company hasn’t shared the official figures of individual units yet.

Anyway, the data for the entire Note9 series is according to reports from Xiaomi store, JD.com, Tmall, and Suning stores as of December 1, 12:00 local time. Besides, as reported by Mydrivers, Jingdong shares the first sale figures of the Redmi Note9 Pro 5G. It says that more than 10,000 units of the device got sold out in just 52 seconds. Although a steady figure for the device isn’t available yet, we can imagine it breaking every record in the future.

In fact, the device deserves it as it has all the reasons to earn it right from the first Redmi 108MP camera smartphone to bringing 5G to the masses. The Redmi Note series of devices has always been the center of attraction for Xiaomi. For instance, the sale of the Note 7 series exceeded 10 million in just 129 days while the Note 8 series did it even quicker.

Additionally, an official report by the company shows that the sale of all the Note lineup so far has exceeded 140 million units globally.  Anyway, let’s wait for a bit to know how the Note9 series performs in the coming months.

Lenovo has three new smartphones coming soon. We believe they are three based on the first teaser poster it released last week. The new phones will be positioned as direct rivals to the three new Redmi Note 9 phones announced in China today.

Following the launch of the Redmi Note 9 series, Lenovo has shared new teaser images of the upcoming phones on its Weibo page. These images reveal some parts of the design of the new devices.

The first image reveals that the phones or at least one of them will have triple rear cameras. Yes, we believe that the image shows three cameras and an LED flash and not four cameras. The cameras are housed in a squircle that sits at the top left corner of the phone. The image also shows that the phone(s) will have an audio jack at the top.

The second teaser image shows the front of the device and as we can see, there is a hole punch at the top left corner for the front-facing camera. The third photo shows the left side of the phone where a button sits on the frame. Practically all phones have their power button on the right side of the device and we believe that this will be the case for the upcoming Lenovo phones. However, since this button is on the left, our guess is that it may be a custom key that can be used to quickly launch an app or call up the AI assistant on the device.

The caption for the images hints at the upcoming phones having a better camera, a bigger display, and a more ergonomic design than the Redmi Note 9 series. While Lenovo is yet to reveal the name of the upcoming smartphones, one of the devices is expected to launch as the Lenovo K12 Pro which is a rebadged Moto G9 Power.

Founder of Xiaomi, Lei Jun has teased the price of the upcoming Redmi Note 9 series in China. His latest post on Weibo hints that the new Note 9 series will start around 1,000 yuan($152) pretty much confirming the earlier leaks.

Lei Jun, via a post on his official Weibo account, says that the upcoming Redmi Note 9 series will be the best in Performance, Camera, and Battery life segments. This further strengthens the leaks about the Redmi Note 9 series’ devices. Besides, he also questions the users about the configuration they prefer the most in a 1,000 yuan($152) smartphone.

Hours before, Lei Jun ran a poll on Weibo earlier to check people’s favorite Note device. As per the results, Redmi Note 7, Note 8, Note 3 came in the top 3. He shared the results of the poll and asked users’ preferences on the upcoming device. All these, in addition to reports, suggest that the base model, at least the 4G variant might start from 1,000 yuan.

Precisely, a report(via ITHome) says that Redmi Note 9 5G variants will go slightly above 1,000 yuan with the Pro 5G(High-end) version priced around 1,500 yuan($228.5). However, this contradicts the earlier report which said that the entire series will be 5G friendly and begin at 1,000 yuan. In any case, we are just five days away, and hence, let’s wait for the official announcement.

Anyway, the Redmi Note 9 series will break cover on November 26 in China. It is likely to feature three models- two 5G(Redmi Note 9, Note 9 Pro) devices, and an alleged 4G device. Previous reports reveal that Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G will likely be a tweaked version of Xiaomi Mi 10T-Lite and sport a 6.67-inch FHD+ 120Hz display, Snapdragon 750G paired up to 8GB RAM, 108MP camera, 4,820mAh battery with 33W charging.

The Redmi Note 9 5G likely has a 6.53-inch display, MediaTek Dimensity 800U SoC, 48MP rear and 13MP front camera, 5,000mAh battery with 22.5W charging. The alleged 4G variant of the Redmi Note 9, from the TENAA listing, looks a lot similar to the upcoming POCO M3. It will likely feature a 6.5-inch FHD+ display, Snapdragon 662 SoC, 48MP camera, 6,000mAh battery with 18W fast charging.

The rumor mill is now actively spilling information about the upcoming Redmi Note 9 series for China. A tipster recently claimed that the series has three phones, and they are likely to go official later this month. Earlier today, the tipster shared an image that revealed that LCD panel of one of the Redmi Note 9 series phones. The image revealed the presence of a top-center positioned punch-hole for the front camera. Later, he took Weibo again to reveal that the lower positioned model of the Redmi Note 9 will not have the same display. He revealed that has a selfie camera cutout at the top-left corner.

The tipster claimed that the punch-hole cutout of Note 9’s base variant is a bit large measuring around 3.9mm in diameter. He also claimed that the screen supports a high refresh rate.

In September, a leaked shot of an upcoming Redmi phone had surfaced on Weibo. The device had an upper-left corner positioned selfie camera cutout. There is a possibility that this handset could be the Redmi Note 9’s base version.

The image revealed a couple of vital details such as M200722C model number, 8 GB of RAM, MIUI 12 based Android 10 OS, and a 2.4GHz octa-core processor. The device could be powered by a Dimensity 800U chipset. The M2007J22C 5G phone was recently spotted at the 3C certification platform with a 22.5W fast charger. There was another leak shot of the device that revealed that it is equipped with 48-megapixel triple cameras.

This phone is likely to launch outside of China. The reason behind its global version that has a model number of M2007J22G was approved by the EEC authority recently.

Xiaomi’s sub-brand Redmi has been long-rumored to the much-awaited Redmi Note 10 series. But to everyone’s surprise, a couple of days back, well-known tipster Digital Chat Station revealed that the brand will be launching three new models in the already crowded Redmi Note 9 series and not Redmi Note 10 phones. Now, the same leakster has shared a picture of one of these handset’s LCD panel.

The Redmi Note 9 series did not make its way to the brand’s home country. Instead, it made its global debut in India and later was made available in other regions across the world. So it was thought that Redmi skipped these handsets for its homeland.

As months passed by, Redmi Note 10 series started coming into the picture in the form of rumors and leaks. But then, all of a sudden, Digital Chat Station claimed that these leaked handsets will launch as Redmi Note 9 series in China.

Now, by sharing a picture of one of the three phones’ LCD panel, he says that the punch hole on these upcoming devices will measure around 3.8mm in diameter. That means display holes on these smartphones will comparable to the flagship models.

Also, he says that the holes will further shrink up to around 2.4 – 2.9mm on mainstream smartphones next year. He also assures that tiny holes will not hinder the selfie camera quality as companies are expected to use 0.7μm sensors.

Having said that, the specifications of the new Redmi Note 9 models are not clear. We recently published an article compiling all the rumors and leaks of the Redmi Note 10 series, which is now said to launch as Redmi Note 9 devices. So give it a read to know more about these upcoming phones.

The post Alleged Redmi Note 9 series’ (China) LCD panel leaks appeared first on Gizmochina.

The Redmi Note 9 series currently boasts five models and is a tad confusing already but it appears the family is about to get larger and not with one model but three new ones.

There have been reports of the Redmi Note 10 series but the Xiaomi subsidiary isn’t done yet with the Redmi Note 9 series. According to the Chinese leaker, Digital Chat Station, the Redmi Note 9 series will be getting three new models this month.

The new phones will be announced by the middle of November, and one of them will come with the 108MP Samsung ISOCELL HM2 sensor announced in September.

The Chinese Communications Commission has certified two Redmi phones with model numbers M2007J22C and M2007J17C. The former supports 22.5W fast charging while the latter supports 33W fast charging. However, both devices have support for 5G.

According to ITHome, the one with the faster charging is a Pro model of the other. The Chinese tech blog also reports that the phone will be the first Snapdragon 750G phone in China

It is important to state that the current Redmi Note 9 lineup didn’t launch in China. However, we strongly believe that these new models may eventually get a global release but under a different name. As for the Redmi Note 10 series, that should come later but we won’t bet on it launching this year.

India has a new all-rounder: we are talking about the Realme 7i, a very affordable phone offering unique features for its price segments, such as a great 64 MP camera and a 90 Hz refresh rate! It is definitely one of the highest value for money devices of the moment, but can you actually get more interesting handsets in the Indian market? The answer is not easy to give because it depends on the users’ needs. In the same price range, among the hottest devices in the Indian market, there are Redmi Note 9 and POCO M2. This is the reason why we decided to compare them to the new Realme 7i.

Realme 7i vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Xiaomi POCO M2

Design

The POCO M2 does not offer the most modern design you can get in the affordable segment. With its waterdrop notch and centrally-placed camera module, it looks definitely more outdated than its two rivals. The Realme 7i is the most futuristic one with its punch-hole display and its camera module reminiscent of the iPhone 11 lineup. On the other hand, the Redmi Note 9 offers a water-repellent coating which is always useful for those who often use their smartphone outside. Thanks to its 20:9 aspect ratio, Realme 7i has a taller and narrower design which makes it even more attractive.

Display

Do you prefer having a Full HD+ display with a higher level of detail or an HD+ display with a lower definition and a higher 90 Hz refresh rate? If your answer is the first, then go for the Redmi Note 9. It has a Full HD+ display just like the POCO M2, but it comes with higher brightness, so it has a definitely better panel. If you do not mind so much about the resolution and you would like to try a higher refresh rate to get a smoother viewing experience, then the perfect option for you is the Realme 7i with its 90 Hz display. POCO M2, Redmi Note 9, and Realme 7i all come with IPS displays: what changes are the resolution and the refresh rate.

Specs & Software

The Realme 7i wins the hardware comparison. What makes its better is not the chipset, but its memory configuration. It sports 8 GB of RAM, while you can get max 4 or 6 GB of RAM with Redmi Note 9 and POCO M2. Further, while Redmi Note 9 and POCO M2 are equipped with eMMC internal storage, Realme 7i has faster UFS 2.1 native storage with a 128 GB capacity. Also, consider that the Snapdragon 662 is built with a better production process than Helio G80 and Helio G85 (11 nm vs 12 nm), so it is even less energy-demanding. Last but not least, the 90 Hz refresh rate will let the Realme 7i look smoother (but as said above, say goodbye to FHD+ resolution). If you need the device with the best performance, go for the Realme 7i. All run Android 10 out of the box.

Camera

Given that the Realme 7i has a better main sensor for its rear camera setup, it wins the camera comparison as well. It sports a 64 MP midrange-class main camera paired with an 8 MP ultrawide lens and a pair of 2 MP lens for macro and depth info. The secondary sensors are the same as Redmi Note 9 and POCO M2, but the main sensor changes. The Redmi Note 9 is superior to the POCO M2 thanks to its 48 MP main sensor. Besides being a better camera phone, Realme 7i is even a better selfie phone thanks to its 16 MP front snapper.

Battery

There are no huge differences between the battery life of these handsets: they have more or less the same battery capacity (around 5000 mAh), but given that Realme 7i has a lower display resolution and a more efficient chipset, it should last a bit more. On the other hand, Redmi Note 9 supports reverse charging and it can be used as a power bank.

Price

Realme 7i is priced Rs. 11,999 / $164 in India (8/128 GB), Redmi Note 9 costs Rs. 12,499 / $170 (4/64 GB), and POCO M2 costs Rs. 10,999 / $150 (6/64 GB). Realme 7i sports a higher refresh rate, better cameras, and a superior hardware department. But Redmi Note 9 has a Full HD+ resolution instead of HD+, as well as reverse charging. POCO M2 is inferior to both but it has a higher value for money. I would personally try the Realme 7i. What would your choice be?

The ban did not stop Huawei from releasing affordable phones for the global market. The company just came up with the new Huawei P Smart 2021, but is Huawei still competitive in the affordable segment? There is no better way to understand it than comparing it with other potential best-sellers of this year offering amazing specifications at very affordable prices. For this comparison with P Smart 2021, we chose the Redmi Note 9 and the Realme 7. Is Huawei still able to release something as interesting as the latest Xiaomi and Realme budget phones? Let’s find it out together.

Huawei P Smart 2021 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Realme 7

Design

Due to its huge camera module including a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner, the Redmi Note 9 is not brilliant if we talk about the aesthetics. With their rectangle-shaped camera modules and side-mounted fingerprint readers, Huawei P Smart 2021 and Realme 7 are definitely more attractive. Realme 7 is actually the most beautiful one because of its color variants and more compact dimensions, despite not everyone may like it since it comes with a smaller display.

Display

The winner of the display comparison is the Realme 7 for a simple reason: it provides a higher 90 Hz refresh rate. For the rest, the display specifications are more or less the same as its rivals. Realme 7, Redmi Note 9, and Huawei P Smart 2021 are equipped with 1080p displays, but the Huawei P Smart 2021 has a wider 6.67-inch panel, while Redmi Note 9 and Realme 7 stop at 6.5 and 6.53 inches, respectively. Besides getting a higher 90 Hz refresh rate, with the Realme 7 you also get a higher 480 nits brightness.

Specs & Software

Realme 7 wins even when it comes to the hardware department. It is powered by a stronger Helio P95 chipset by MediaTek, which is naturally better than the Helio G85 found on the Redmi Note 9 and more powerful than the Kirin 710A found on the Huawei P Smart 2021. Besides packing a better chipset, Realme 7 has a higher-end memory configuration with 8 GB of RAM and 128 GB of UFS 2.1 internal storage. There is no challenge: Realme 7 is way better under every point of view. Further, note that the Huawei P Smart 2021 does not have Google services installed: they were replaced by Huawei Mobile Services due to the U.S. ban.

Camera

Realme 7 actually comes with a better main camera than Redmi Note 9 and Huawei P Smart 2021 on its rear camera setup. We are talking about a Sony sensor with a 64 MP resolution and f/1.8 focal aperture. Just for this reason, Realme 7 is a better camera phone. The secondary sensors are similar to the ones of its opponents, including the 8 MP ultrawide camera and a pair of 2 MP lenses for macro and depth info. Even the front camera is actually better with its 16 MP resolution.

Battery

Realme 7 and P Smart 2021 pack a 5000 mAh battery, while Redmi Note 9 has a 5020 mAh unit. Realme 7 has an inferior battery life because it comes with a 90 Hz display which is more energy-demanding. Redmi Note 9 should last more thanks to its standard refresh rate and smaller display than Huawei P Smart 2021. On the other hand, Realme 7 features a faster charging technology with a 30W power.

Price

Redmi Note 9 is priced less than €200/$230 globally, Huawei P Smart 2021 costs €230/$270, and Realme 7 starts from €174/$203 in India and it is still not available globally. Realme 7 wins this comparison thanks to a higher refresh rate, better chipset, and cameras.

Redmi has a lot of affordable devices in its portfolio, but a lot of people make confusion with their names. Often they differ just for a number or a little word, that is why it is hard for a lot of people to distinguish them and find the best device for their needs. Here is a comparison between three devices with similar names but different specifications released recently by Xiaomi’s brand. We are talking about Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Redmi Note 9 Pro. In this article, you will find the main differences between these three handsets.

Xiaomi Redmi 9 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro

Design

Redmi Note 9 and 9 Pro feature a similar design, but the latter is more beautiful and it has a slightly better build quality. The punch hole on the Redmi Note 9 is placed on the upper left corner, while on the Note 9 Pro it is placed centrally. The Redmi Note 9 Pro has a smaller camera module and a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass 5, so it wins the design and builds quality comparisons. But you should note that Note 9 Pro has bigger dimensions due to its wider display. Redmi 9 looks more outdated due to its waterdrop notch, but its rear side is more elegant.

Display

With Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Note 9 Pro, you get average IPS displays. Nothing special, closer to entry-level phones than flagships. The Redmi Note 9 and Note 9 Pro have a better panel since they feature a higher brightness and a slightly better quality, but the differences with the Redmi 9 are just marginal. Note that Note 9 Pro has a wider display than Redmi Note 9 and Redmi 9 (6.67 inches vs 6.53 inches).

Specs & Software

The hardware department is the main difference that people look for when they evaluate these three devices. The Redmi 9 is fueled by the Helio G80 chipset, while the Redmi Note 9 has an Helio G85 under the hood. As you probably understood from the name, there is not a huge performance difference between Redmi 9 and Redmi Note 9. But the situation is totally different when it comes to the Redmi Note 9 Pro: this handset sports a more powerful Snapdragon 720G SoC and up to 6 GB of RAM paired with 128 GB of UFS 2.1 native storage. These are all Redmi phones, so you get the same operating system and the same user interface: Android 10 customized by MIUI 11.

Camera

Redmi Note 9 and 9 Pro are similar in terms of camera performance. They both feature a 48 MP main sensor and a quad rear camera, but the Note 9 Pro has a 5 MP macro sensor instead of a 2 MP macro sensor. That is just a marginal difference that does not impact the overall photo quality. Redmi 9 is way inferior because it features an entry-level 13 MP main sensor. So, you should go for the Redmi 9 only if cameras are not your priority. We can tell you the same if we talk about front cameras: Note 9 Pro is the best with its 16 MP snapper, Redmi Note 9 comes right after with its 13 MP lens, and Redmi 9 lags behind with an 8 MP selfie camera.

Battery

Redmi 9, Redmi Note 9, and Redmi Note 9 Pro pack exactly the same battery with a 5020 mAh capacity. But the Note 9 Pro has a more efficient chipset since it is built with a better production process (8 nm vs 12 nm). That is why Note 9 Pro lasts more on a single charge. An interesting advantage of the Redmi Note 9 is the reverse charging support.

Price

Redmi 9 is expected to be priced Rs. 8,999 in India and it will launch on August 31. Redmi Note 9 is priced Rs. 11,999, while Note 9 Pro is priced Rs. 13,999. If you can spend more, go for Note 9 Pro without thinking twice: it has a way better chipset with lower energy consumption. If you can not spend so much, choose the Redmi Note 9 only if you care about cameras, otherwise, go for the Redmi 9 since it offers a higher value for money.

The post Redmi 9 vs Redmi Note 9 vs Redmi Note 9 Pro: Specs Comparison appeared first on Gizmochina.

Xiaomi’s Redmi brand unveiled the Redmi Note 9 series earlier this year. The series is made up of the Redmi Note 9 and Note 9 Pro with the models adopting a square-shaped camera module similar to that of the Redmi 10x. There are reports of a defect on the camera module which allows dust to find its way into the camera thereby affecting the picture quality when that happens.

Apparently, the camera module of the Redmi Note 9 models come with a defect from the factory as it seems to not have been sealed properly which allows tiny particles to escape under the glass. Since it is on the inside, it is impossible to wipe off the fickles of dust with a soft cloth. This will then result in images captured using the dirty lens coming out grainy or blurred.

Thanks for the feedback. For now only very small numbers of cases reported but we have asked factory to further tighten up the control. Service centres will be available to help with the few who face this issue, thanks

— Alvin Tse #MiFan (@atytse) June 26, 2020

The issue seems to affect a considerable number of Redmi Note 9 and Note 9 Pro units and Xiaomi is in the know already. While responding to a complaint by a user on Twitter back in June, Alvin Tse, General Manager of Xiaomi Indonesia, confirmed that the company had, indeed, received reports and would be tightening up its quality control to prevent further cases. He also hinted that those with units affected by the issue would be attended to at Xiaomi’s service centres.

Since then, there have been fresh reports of Redmi Note 9 units having the same issue. We can’t say for sure if the units were released before the issue was discovered or if the company has actually improved QC since then. If you own any of the Redmi Note 9 series devices, do ensure you try to keep it away from dust as much as possible. You can let us know in the comments section if you own a Redmi Note 9 model and it is affected by this issue.

Three months after the global launch of the A52, OPPO officially announced the OPPO A53 2020 and launched it in Indonesia. While waiting for it to hit the Indian market, we can examine all of its specifications and compare it with the other devices sold in the same price range. For this comparison, we chose the Redmi Note 9 and the Realme 6i. Note that Realme 6i exists in two different variants: the Indian version and the global version. The phone we will talk about in this comparison is the Indian version, while the global version is a more affordable phone with inferior specifications.

Oppo A53 2020 vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 vs Realme 6i

Design

The sleekest handset of this trio is the Realme 6i which sports a smaller camera module and a punch-hole display with a hole placed on the upper left corner. But if we talk about build quality, the Redmi Note 9 looks more interesting because it has a glass back instead of a full polycarbonate body. It is uglier, but it is well-built. Oppo A53 is thinner and lighter than its two rivals, but it is bigger due to its thicker display bezels.

Display

The most advanced display belongs to the Realme 6i: a Full HD+ panel with a 90 Hz refresh rate. It is not a high-end panel and it is an average IPS display, but it is way better than Redmi Note 9 and Oppo A53 2020. Indeed, the former features a Full HD+ display with a standard refresh rate, while the latter has a low HD+ resolution, despite it features a 90 Hz refresh rate just like the 6i. The Realme 6i wins the comparison simply because it has both the features.

Specs & Software

Even when it comes to the hardware, Realme 6i is the champion. It has a more powerful Helio G90T chipset paired with up to 6 GB of RAM. With Redmi Note 9, which gets the second place, you get the Helio G85 paired with max 4 GB of RAM, while Oppo A53 has an inferior Snapdragon 460 SoC built with a better production process, but with lower performance. Oppo A53, Redmi Note 9, and Realme 6i run Android 10 out of the box, highly-customized by proprietary user interfaces.

Camera

On the paper, Realme 6i wins the camera comparison. It has exactly the same rear cameras as the Redmi Note 9, but it features a better chipset as well as a better front camera with a 16 MP resolution. With the Oppo A53, you get the same front camera as the Realme 6i, but the rear cameras are inferior to both its two opponents of the comparison. Realme 6i is able to record 4K videos at 30 fps and 1080p videos at 120 fps with EIS. It has a 48 MP main sensor with an f/1.8 focal aperture, an ultrawide sensor, and two sensors with 2 MP resolutions for macro and depth.

Battery

The biggest battery belongs to the Redmi Note 9, but the OPPO A53 2020 should last more on a single charge because it has a lower resolution for the display and a more efficient chipset (the Snapdragon 460 built at 11 nm). Both feature 18W fast charging, but with the Redmi Note 9, you get 9W reverse charging (wired). Realme 6i has a smaller battery and a shorter battery life, but it has a much faster charging technology with a power of 30W.

Price

Oppo A53 sells for €140/$165, Realme 6i starts from €170/$200, and Redmi Note 9 has a €150/$177 starting price. The Realme 6i is a more advanced device thanks to its Full HD+ 90 Hz display and its better chipset, but unlike Redmi Note 9 and Oppo A53, it is not a battery phone.

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 9 last month in India with MIUI 11 based on Android 10. Within a month from its launch, the handset is being updated to MIUI 12 stable in the country. The device has already received the company’s latest mobile software update in many regions.

The first-ever MIUI update for Redmi Note 9 in India comes in less than a month from its release. That means current users and future buyers of this phone will probably have a common number of MIUI updates like any other older Xiaomi/Redmi/POCO device that launched with MIUI 11.

Having said that, the update comes with build number v12.0.1.0.QJOINXM and is being rolled out in batches. Being a budget smartphone, it does not get all the features of MIUI 12 like AOD+ as it sports an LCD panel. 

However, users get to experience fundamental features like the new control centre, granular permission management for apps, new system animations, revamped Settings app, Dak Mode 2.0, and more.

Additionally, Redmi Note 9 is also eligible for Android 11. But unfortunately, going by the Android 10 update rollout by Xiaomi, the upcoming version of Android culled arrive for this phone as late as next year.

Xiaomi initially launched Redmi Note 9 globally in late April. The very next month, the company rebranded it as Redmi 10X 4G for China. Later, the handset debuted with its original name in India in July. Now, the firm introduces a new Onyx Black color variant for global markets.

Just yesterday, Xiaomi announced Redmi Note 8 Pro Coral Orange Special Edition for global markets. Within a day, the company unveils new Onyx Black Redmi Note 9.

Unlike the former model, which was already available in China as Twilight Orange, the latter is debuting for the first time in any region. Unfortunately, just like yesterday’s announcement, Xiaomi did not reveal the specific countries that will be getting the new color variant.

The Redmi Note 9 initially launch in three color versions namely Forest Green, Midnight Grey, and Polar White. The same color variants are known as Pine Morning Green, Sky Blue, and Ice Fog White in China (Redmi 10X 4G).

Whereas, in India, they are called Aqua Green, Pebble Grey, and Arctic White. Additionally, India also got an exclusive color called Scarlet Red on the occasion of Amazon Prime Day sale.

In a similar manner, if the new Onyx Black global variant if ever launches in India or China, we are certain it will be called something else.
