realme 9 Expert Review Summary
In it’s segment, this phone is among
Expert Rating:
3.5/5
Verdict
Except for the performance of the device, the Realme 9 is a worthy companion. It does lack 5G and adding in a stereo speaker setup would`ve added to the device`s charm. However the 108MP camera`s performance in daylight conditions is quite good, the 33W charging is quick and the AMOLED panel adds to the visual experience. The occasional stutters seen on the 90Hz panel did undermine the phone`s capabiities, although I`m hopeful a software update can fix this.
Pros
- Clean design
- Colour accurate display
- Good daylight photography
- Decent battery life
Cons
- UI stutters sometimes
- Performance could be better
- Could use stereo speakers
