The price of the budget Redmi 9C smartphone with NFC has appeared

Xiaomi continues to expand its line of devices with new smartphones. But now the changes are really important and useful. At least, many were definitely waiting for them.

Redmi 9C was presented at the end of June this year. The smartphone was a budget phone that did not have the NFC chip like other more expensive devices. However, as it turned out, Xiaomi plans to resolve this issue – a 9C version with NFC will appear, which will cost a little more. This was announced in the Twitter account of the insider Sudhanshu.

The insider presented renders and prices of a new version of the budget smartphone. As you can see from the post, the NFC version of the budget smartphone will come in the same colors as the standard version.

In addition, the NFC version of the Redmi 9C will be sold in the same configurations as the standard version – 2GB RAM + 32GB storage and 3GB RAM + 64GB. They will cost 129 and 149 euros respectively, which is 10 euros more than the regular version. As a reminder, the starting price for the European version of the 9C was €119.

Also, the device will not undergo any changes in terms of characteristics. The smartphone will retain a huge 5,000mAh battery, will also be powered by the MediaTek Helio G35 and will be equipped with a three-lens main camera.

Unfortunately, there is no information about when the version of Redmi 9C with NFC will go on sale so far, so if you have long wanted to pay for your purchases using a budget smartphone, you will have to wait for a little for the official statement.
