Realme 9 Pro

The Reame 9 Pro is a direct successor to the last year’s Realme 8 Pro. It brings a range of upgrades across the board, including a higher refresh rate display, 5G support, a bigger battery, and more. It packs a 6.95-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, the phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 SoC, paired with up to 8GB RAM and 128GB UFS 2.2 storage. While the Snapdragon 695 may feel like a downgrade over the Snapdragon 720G on paper, it’s actually a better chipset overall, offering slightly better CPU and GPU performance, along with improved efficiency.

The triple camera system of the Realme 9 Pro is headlined by a 64MP primary shooter, accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide shooter and a 2MP macro shooter. A 5,000mAh battery keeps the show running, which is a step up from the 4,500mAh battery on last year’s model. However, the charging speed has been reduced to 33W from 50W.

Realme 9 Pro Plus

The Realme 9 Pro Plus offers a slightly better hardware package. It features a smaller 6.4-inch AMOLED display with a 90Hz refresh rate. It opts for the MediaTek Dimensity 920 chipset, unlike the Pro model, which has a Snapdragon SoC. On the back, it has a 50MP Sony IMX766 main sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP macro lens. The Realme 9 Pro Plus has a smaller 4,500mAh battery but supports a faster 60W charging speed.

The Realme 9 Pro Plus offers heart rate monitoring through the in-display fingerprint scanner and has a vapor cooling chamber to keep thermals in check.

The Realme 9 Pro series runs Realme 2.0 based on Android 11 out of the box. Realme promises two years of OS updates, which means the phones should get the upcoming Android 13 update.

Pricing & Availability

The Realme 9 Pro starts at ₹17,999 for the 6GB/128GB model and goes up to ₹20,999 for the top variant. Meanwhile, the Realme 9 Pro Plus comes in three variants and will be available at the following prices:

• 6GB+128GB: ₹24,999
• 8GB + 128GB: ₹26,999
