Redmi Note 9 Design,
- Gorilla Glass 5 front, all-plastic body
- Rear-mounted fingerprint sensor
- 162.3 x 77.2 x 8.9mm, 199g
When it comes to design, the Redmi Note 9 sits at the ‘functional plastic’ end of the spectrum. There isn’t so much as a hint of metal here, and the only glass you’ll find is the Gorilla Glass 5 panel that covers the front
You wouldn’t expect premium materials in the sub-£200 price category, of course. And to Xiaomi’s credit, it delivers the plastic aesthetic in the form of a striking eggshell blue frame finish and a rear panel that shifts from sky blue at the top to lavender at the bottom. That’s the Polar White model we were sent, anyway. The Forest Green and Midnight Grey models don’t look quite as snazzy.
This is a pretty large phone for the price. It’s rather tall at 162.3mm, particularly thick at 8.9mm, and really quite heavy at 199g. You can probably thank the phone’s huge battery for those last two stats.
Xiaomi has eschewed the use of an in-display fingerprint sensor with the Redmi Note 9, which is a clear money-saving measure. That’s not necessarily a bad thing in our book, as in-display technology remains a beat slower than equivalent stand-alone sensors.
Redmi Note 9 Cameras,
- Four rear cameras: 48MP main, 8MP ultra-wide, 2MP macro, 2MP depth
- 1080p 30fps video
- 13MP front-facing camera
We’ve tended to be mightily impressed with the camera technology Xiaomi packs into its Redmi Note range. Last year’s Redmi Note 8T punched well above its weight with a largely impressive quad-camera setup, and the Redmi Note 9 appears to be very similar indeed.
Once again, you get a 48-megapixel main sensor, an 8-megapixel ultrawide, a 2-megapixel macro and a 2-megapixel dedicated depth sensor. We feel like a stuck record here, but the 2-megapixel macro really isn’t worthy of the space it takes up, and the depth sensor feels rather superfluous.
The lingering suspicion is that budget phone manufacturers simply throw such components into the mix because they’re a cost-effective way of hitting ‘quad-camera’ status. Call us cynical, but we can’t see how either of these 2-megapixel sensors add anything meaningful to day-to-day shooting.
Grumbles aside, we’re largely impressed by the pictures the Redmi Note 9 captures. So long as the lighting is good, you’ll get the kind of crisp, well-balanced shots that you’d have expected to pay £400 or more to achieve not so long ago. We did pick up the odd hint of overexposure – but, by and large, the phone handled high dynamic range scenarios admirably well for its price.
The 8-megapixel ultrawide angle sensor matches the tone of the main camera quite well, although looking closely reveals plenty of noise – especially as your attention moves out to the edges of the frame. Still, it’s always a welcome option.
That said, the Redmi Note 9 doesn’t handle very low-light or night-time scenarios well, which is where its budget nature truly betrays itself. There’s a dedicated Night mode here, which will brighten such shots significantly, but it produces shots that are full of grainy artefacts and therefore distracting.
Video capture isn’t up to the standard of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T, with a mere 1080p 30fps on offer rather than the 4K 30fps/1080p 60fps of its predecessor. But it does a basic job.
There’s A 13-megapixel front camera here, too, which is fine for selfies once you’ve reset the ghastly ‘beauty’ effects.
Oh, and one final note to Xiaomi and every other manufacturer that chooses to slap a branded watermark on every photo by default: stop. Please. Just stop. Yes, you can fish around in the settings menu to switch off this annoying feature, but we really shouldn’t have to.
Redmi Note 9 Specs and performance,
- Substandard MediaTek Helio G85 CPU
- 4GB RAM
- MIUI 12 update makes improvements
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 isn’t a particularly hot performer. You don’t get the Snapdragon 665 CPU that key rivals such as the Moto G8 do, or even last year’s Redmi Note 8T for that matter, which is a bit of a downer.
Instead, this phone is fitted out with the cheaper MediaTek Helio G85. Look at the benchmarks and you won’t notice much of a difference between these two chips in terms of raw performance. An average Geekbench 5 multicore score of 1,273 is pretty comparable to Qualcomm’s more popular budget chip.
In the hand we noticed small but fairly frequent stutters when navigating between home screens, moving between menus, and simply unlocking the Redmi Note 9. That’s all pretty standard, non-intensive stuff we’re talking about, which meant we were never in any doubt that we were using a cheap phone.
For gaming, though, the Redmi Note 9 holds its own. Grimvalor looks and moves great, as does Dead Cells – two slick action-platformers where you really notice those dropped frames.
Conversely, while The Gardens Between runs reasonably smoothly, it does so with the odd stutter and a drastically reduced level of visual fidelity. Its Tenet-style time-warping puzzles seem to tax the chip into a Low settings state, or else the developer simply hasn’t properly optimised the game for this less mainstream silicon.
The choice of internal storage capacities is ample at either 64GB or 128GB. You can’t really ask for more at this price.
We also appreciate that the handset features NFC for full Android Pay compatibility, which is important in these increasingly cashless times. While this isn’t an unusual inclusion, it’s worth remembering that the Moto G8 omits NFC.
While the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 ships with Android 10 and MIUI 11, we found that there was an update to MIUI 12 available from the get-go. It’s a considerable improvement, once you’ve spent some time tinkering with its many customisation options in the Settings menu to get it just so.
Redmi Note 9 Battery life,
- 5,020mAh battery is good for two days
- 18W Fast Charging supported
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 has a 5,020mAh battery. That would be considered pretty huge in a top-end phone with a 4K 120Hz display, let alone in a budget phone with much less demanding hardware.
However, size isn’t everything when it comes to battery life; software smarts are also necessary if you want decent stamina. Nevertheless, it counts plenty. And the result is that this is a proper two-day phone.
Unless you’re an out-and-out power user or a total media hound (and if you are then this probably isn’t the phone for you anyway), you’ll get through two full days of use in between charges.
When you do hit the streaming services, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 has good if not outstanding stamina. We watched an hour of Netflix with the screen brightness set to half, and it sapped 7% of a charge – a good, but not freakishly good, result.
Also notable is the fact that the Redmi Note 9 supports 18W fast charging. No, it’s not the fastest standard on the market, but it’s still noteworthy in such a cheap phone.
