The handset is 8.5mm thick and weighs 188 grams. It sports a large 6.5-inch FHD LCD with a 90Hz refresh rate, 180Hz touch sampling rate, and a 90 percent screen-to-body ratio. The display can achieve maximum brightness of 600 nits. The smartphone is powered by an octa-core MediaTek Dimensity 810 chipset, which comprises an ARM Mali-G57 MC2 GPU clocked at 950MHz. The fact that it is built on the 6nm fabrication process aids in energy efficiency.
In the photography department, the Realme 9 5G packs in a triple camera setup consisting of a primary 48MP sensor with f/1.8 aperture, 6P lens, and 80-degree FOV. The other two cameras are a 2MP B&W portrait lens and a 2MP macro lens. For selfie aficionados, there’s a 16MP front shooter with an f/2.1 aperture.
The smartphone supports 5G networks, which could be detrimental to its battery life. To address that, Realme has employed a Smart 5G Power Saving feature, which intelligently switches between 4G and 5G networks to lower the energy consumption by 30 percent. Other noteworthy features include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, Dynamic RAM Expansion Technology (DRE) of up to 5GB, USB Type-C port, dual-4G VoLTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac (2.4GHz + 5GHz), Bluetooth 5.1, and a 3.5mm audio jack. It packs in a 5000mAh battery and is coupled with 18-watt charging support. The handset runs on Realme UI 2.0 on top of Android 11 OS out of the box.
Realme 9 5G: Price, Availability
The Realme 9 5G has been launched at a price of ₹14,999 for the 4GB+64GB storage variant and ₹17,499 for the 6GB+128GB storage option. It comes in two colours, namely Stargaze White and Meteor Black. You can purchase it from March 14 onwards via Realme’s website and other online channels.
