Following the launch of the Redmi Note 9 Pro and Note 9 Pro Max in India early last month, Xiaomi launched the Redmi Note 9 Pro globally as the Redmi Note 9S. Adding on to the Redmi Note 9 series, Xiaomi has now launched the vanilla Redmi Note 9 globally at an online-only launch event. The new Redmi Note 9 features a similar design as the Note 9 Pro and Pro Max, but it packs in a smaller 6.53-inch FHD+ IPS display with a single hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera. The device is powered by MediaTek’s Helio G85 SoC, coupled with up to 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage.

Much like the ‘Pro’ variants, the Redmi Note 9 packs in a quad-camera setup on the back, with a 48MP Samsung GM1 primary sensor, an 8MP ultra-wide camera, a 2MP macro camera, and a 2MP sensor for depth perception. Over on the front, the device has a single 13MP selfie shooter in a hole-punch cutout on the top left corner of the display.
Powering the device is a substantial 5,020mAh battery which supports fast wired charging at 18W via the USB Type-C port. The device also includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, an IR blaster, NFC, dual SIM support, a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner and a microSD card slot for expansion (up to 128GB).
As part of the Redmi Note 9 series, Xiaomi has also launched the Redmi Note 9 Pro at the event, which is a rebranded version of the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max that was launched in India earlier this year, albeit with a 16MP selfie camera.
The global variant of the Redmi Note 9 Pro features a 6.67-inch FHD+ LCD display with a hole-punch cutout in the center. The device is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 720G chipset, coupled with 6GB of RAM and up to 128GB of storage, with a dedicated microSD card slot for expansion (up to 128GB).

The Redmi Note 9 Pro also features a quad-camera setup with a 64MP primary sensor, an 8MP wide-angle camera with a 119° FoV, a 5MP macro camera, and a 2MP sensor for depth perception. Over on the front, the device features a single 16MP selfie camera housed within the hole punch cutout. Keeping the device powered on is a 5,020mAh battery with support for 33W fast wired charging.
One interesting to note about the green color variant of the Redmi Note 9 Pro is that it offers a dual-tone finish and the camera island doesn’t extend to include the flash. While we aren’t sure why Xiaomi took that route with just one color variant, it does make the device look a bit more appealing than with the other two options.
Redmi Note 9 series pricing and availability
The Redmi Note 9 will be available in three colors variants — Forest Green, Polar White, and Midnight Gray — and it has been priced at $199 for the 3GB/6GB variant and $249 for the 4GB/128GB variant. The Redmi Note 9 Pro, on the other hand, will be available in three different colors — Interstellar Gray, Tropical Green, and Glacier White — at a starting price of $269 for the 6GB/64GB variant, going up to $299 for the 6GB/128GB variant. Both the devices will be available for purchase starting mid-May globally. It’s worth noting that the pricing may differ based on specific regions and Xiaomi will be revealing the prices for each region at a later date.
Along with the Redmi Note 9 series, Xiaomi has also launched the Mi Note 10 Lite at the launch event. The device, which was recently spotted in an FCC certification listing, packs in a 6.47-inch FHD+ curved AMOLED panel with a waterdrop-style notch. The device is powered by Qualcomm’s mid-range Snapdragon 730G SoC, coupled with up to 6GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.
