Redmi 9i launched in India as a Redmi 9A variant with more storage


It is more and more difficult for an ordinary user to understand the lineup of Xiaomi devices. A number of models look like each other and their specs are almost similar. So today the premiere of Redmi 9i took place, which in its essence is only a local version of the global Redmi 9A for the Indian market, where memory has been increased.

Redmi 9i is equipped with an IPS-display with a resolution of 1600×720 pixels, a Helio G25 processor with a clock speed of 2.0 GHz, 4 GB of RAM and 64/128 GB of storage. Recall that in the global market, Redmi 9 is available with 2/32 GB and 3/32 GB of memory, while in China you can find it in a version with 4/64 GB of memory.

The Redmi 9i has a 5-megapixel selfie camera and a 13-megapixel main one. There is a 5000 mAh battery with 10W charging, Android 10 operating system with MIUI 12 user interface. They offered a P2i splash-proof coating, a microUSB port, Bluetooth 5.0 and 4G LTE support.

The start of sales of Redmi 9i in India is scheduled for September 18. The version with 4/64 GB was estimated at $ 113, and for 4/128 GB they ask for $ 126.
