realme 9i 128GB Expert Review Summary

In it’s segment, this phone is among
Expert

Expert Rating:

3.5/5

Kshitij Pujari
by  Kshitij Pujari , 18 Jan 2022

Verdict

Realme 9i is a small but meaningful taste of what consumers can expect from the company`s upcoming devices this year. There is nothing amiss from the 9i unless you count the absence of an ultra-wide shooter and 120Hz refresh rate display. The gaming capabilities seem a bit lacking but otherwise, the Realme 9i matches up in most aspects of a smartphone experience.

    Pros

  • Decent daylight photography
  • Good battery life
  • Acceptable performance
  • Stereo speakers sound good

    Cons

  • Could use 120Hz refresh rate
  • GPU-intensive games not optimised
  • Poor macro and depth sensors
