Realme has just launched its latest smartphones from what it calls the Number series – the Realme 9 Pro and Realme 9 Pro+. While the two handsets boasts powerful midrange chipsets, big batteries and rapid charging, and the Plus comes with a large-sensor 50MP main camera.

Realme 9 Pro

The Realme 9 Pro is the more affordable member of the new duo, but it outdoes its more premium sibling in certain aspects. The screen here has a bigger diagonal at 6.6”, and a higher 120Hz refresh rate, but the panel is LCD, meaning the fingerprint scanner made its way on the side, under the power key.

The chipset here is a Snapdragon 695 by Qualcomm, and it still supports 5G connectivity. The platform is coupled with 6GB or 8GB RAM, and a single 128GB storage option.

The triple camera setup on the back has a 64MP main shooter, an 8MP ultrawide one and a 2MP macro camera. The selfie camera has the same 16MP sensor.

Realme 9 Pro features

Since the Realme 9 Pro is bigger than a Pro+ it also fits a larger battery – 5,000 mAh. It charges at a relatively tame 33W, but you still get the required charger in the retail box.

Just like its bigger brother, the Realme 9 Pro ships with Android 12 and Realme UI 3.0.
