Realme 9 Pro Series: Everything You Should Know


April 15, 2022

Fresh in the Malaysian market, Realme has recently launched its brand new 9 Pro series with the Realme 9 Pro and Realme 9 Pro Plus. 

With great features at an affordable price point, Realme has outdone its competitors, proving to be the mid-range champion. It has built its reputation as the people’s brand with cheap phones that boast various features and outstanding specs. Realme is an excellent choice for those looking for a brand new smartphone on a budget.

Here’s everything you need to know about the new Realme 9 Pro series and why it’s an absolute steal!

Realme 9 Pro Plus

Starting with the Realme 9 Pro Plus, the ‘Pro Plus’ is not an oxymoron but instead a true testament to its impressive features. 

The Realme 9 Pro Plus is built with a MediaTek Dimensity 920 system-on-chip that comes with 8GB RAM and up to 256GB of storage. It’s equipped with a 4,500mAh battery with 60W SuperDart fast charging that’ll guarantee a full charge in just 45 minutes.

With a 6.4-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen, 90Hz refresh rate, and 360Hz touch sampling rate, rest assured, your experience with the Realme 9 Pro Plus will be smooth —navigating your way on the phone would simply be effortless. On top of that, there’s a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5 for scratch resistance.

Shining through in the photography department, the Realme 9 Pro Plus’ main selling point is the tri-camera setup. Relying on a 50MP Sony IMX76 sensor, the rear cameras consist of an f/1.8 6P lens, an 8MP f/2.2 ultra-wide camera, and a 2MP f/2.4 macro camera.

To top it all off,, the coolest feature of the Realme 9 Pro Plus is the Light Shift Design. With the Sunrise Blue version, you’ve got a colour-changing rear! If your 9 Pro Plus gets exposed to sunlight, the back of your phone transforms from sky blue to a vibrant red hue. It’s truly a creative innovation that sets it apart from other models.

Realme 9 Pro

Second in line after the Realme 9 Pro Plus, we’ve got the Realme 9 Pro—the cheaper alternative in the 9 Pro series. While it does not have as many features as the Pro Plus, it’s still a great option for those on a tighter budget.

Built with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 system-on-chip, the Realme 9 Pro has 8GB of RAM and a single storage option of 128GB. With a slightly larger 5,000mAh battery, it also comes with 33W DartCharge fast charging. 

The Realme 9 Pro has a 6.6-inch FHD+ LCD and is capable of a 120Hz refresh rate and a touch sampling rate of 240Hz. Although unnoticeable at first glance, the 9 Pro has a slightly larger display but slightly lags in its other components.

Like the 9 Pro Plus, the Realme 9 Pro is equipped with a triple rear camera setup; the only difference is that the main camera is a 64MP, f/1.79 shooter instead. Nonetheless, you can still take great pictures with this fantastic set of lenses.

Affordable and Impressive

The Realme 9 Pro series does not get any better than this. If you’re looking for an inexpensive option without having to compromise on the features and internal specs, this lineup is perfect for you.
