Redmi Note 9, Redmi Note 9 Pro, Redmi Note 9 Pro Max specifications 

The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max has what Xiaomi calls the Aura Balance design, which places a lot of importance on symmetry. The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max has a 6.67-inch display, which is the biggest screen seen on a Xiaomi phone. The width of the device is the same as the Redmi Note 8 Pro, but since the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max has a 20:9 display, it isn't as wide and that's why it has a similar footprint. This smartphone has a 3.5mm headphone jack, an infrared emitter, along with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, which is embedded in the power button. The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max has Corning Gorilla Glass 5 at the front and the back. The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max is available in three colours - Aurora Blue, White, and Interstellar Black. This device has a 64-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera, a 5-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. It also has a 32-megapixel primary sensor.


The Redmi Note 9 series is also teased to have a 90Hz display. A microsite on Amazon also recently showed a curved glass rear panel that would protect the gradient back.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G SoC, which we've recently seen in the Realme 6 Pro. This smartphone has up to 8GB RAM and up to 128GB UFS2.1 storage, with a dedicated microSD card slot. This smartphone has Navic support, which is basically support for Indian GPS satellites. The Redmi Note 9 Pro Max has a 5020mAh battery, with a 33W fast charger. Xiaomi claims that it can charge the battery from 0 to 50 percent in under 30 minutes.


Xiaomi hasn't revealed any specifications of the Redmi Note 9 series. However, a recent listing on the benchmark site Geekbench suggested that the Redmi Note 9 Pro in the series would come with at least 6GB of RAM and run Android 10 out-of-the-box. The smartphone is also speculated to have the Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G SoC.


The Redmi Note 9 Pro is would also include a 4,920mAh battery, if we believe a recent listing on the US FCC database website. The phone could also offer 30W fast charging. Furthermore, it is likely to come in two configurations to choose from, namely 4GB+64GB and 6GB+128GB.


Identical to the Redmi Note 9 Pro, the Redmi Note 9 recently lsurfaced on the Geekbench site with 6GB of RAM and Android 10. The phone would come with a MediaTek SoC, instead of the latest Qualcomm chip expected on the Redmi Note 9 Pro. The Chinese company is also expected to have the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max in the family with a MediaTek Dimensity 800 SoC.
