Editorial report

Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime 4 GB / 64 GB / India technical sheet

The Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime suits buyers looking for a large display and a high-capacity battery, provided they can live with low peak brightness: 400 nits is among the weakest figures of its time. Its 6.53-inch IPS LCD display has a pixel density of 395 ppi, above average. The 5020 mAh battery holds more capacity than most phones launched around the same time; fast charging is rated at 18 W.

Connectivity is above average and includes NFC, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack, FM radio and dual SIM. This configuration pairs 4 GB of RAM with 128 GB of storage, expandable by card. The MediaTek Helio G80 scores 203,078 in AnTuTu, below average for phones of its time, making performance a clear compromise against its contemporaries.

The 13 MP main camera uses a 1/3.06-inch sensor, among the smallest of its time, and has no optical image stabilization. There are also ultrawide, macro and depth cameras; video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps. With a NeoScore of 4.5, the Redmi 9 Prime is best suited to buyers who put battery capacity, display sharpness and connectivity first, and are willing to trade away high brightness and a stronger main camera.
