Announcement. Redmi Note 9 5G - budget 5G for China

The Redmi Note 9 5G smartphone is presented today. In China. For the Chinese market. Not to be confused with the Redmi Note 9 4G China announced today, as well as the Redmi Note 9 4G Global announced in the spring. Alas, the Note 9 series has grown obscenely. But let's not talk about sad things anymore.

Let's better talk about fun. I want to start with the prices, because they are painfully pleasant.

• 6 + 128 GB - ¥ 1299 (₽14,900, $ 197)
• 8 + 128 GB - ¥ 1499 (₽17,200, $ 228)
• 8 + 256 GB - ¥ 1699 (₽19,500, $ 258)

And what do we get for this money? In fact, everything is very solid. I can only be sad about the lack of an NFC module.

Chipset - fresh from MediaTek Dimensity 800U. This is confident for three hundred thousand AnTuTu points, i.e. the performance is more than decent.

There is a lot of memory, as you already understood. 6 or 8 GB of operational, 128 or 256 GB of permanent UFS2.2. There is support for memory cards, a separate card tray.

Large screen with a neat hole for the camera. 6.53 ″, IPS-matrix, high resolution 1080 × 2340 (395 ppi).

Capacious 5000 mAh battery. Fast charging 18W. (As has become a tradition, the bundle contains even a slightly more powerful charger - 22.5 W).

It's too early to talk about the quality of the cameras, it is necessarywait for the first reviews. Most likely a typical modern mid-range. Front camera 13 MP. At the back are three 48 + 8 + 2 MP modules (main camera, wide-angle, macro).

Side fingerprint scanner, there is a gyroscope. Of the LTE frequencies we are interested in, only Band 20 is missing (without which it is usually quite possible to survive).
