Budget smartphones are all over the marketplace and yet the brands are making every effort to bring more and more interesting devices to lure the attention of the people. Tell you what, while Realme has actually been ruling the budget 5G segment across the world, even Xiaomi is now bringing competitive devices at low cost. And the latest in the budget segment from Xiaomi is the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 9T which is really powerful and yet really affordable for the users.

Let us check out the major specifications of the smartphone so that we can get a better idea about it.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 9T: Specifications

Design and Display:

Xiaomi Redmi Note 9T has a really good design and is available in two beautiful colors, Nightfall Black and Daybreak Purple. This smartphone measures 161.2 x 77.3 x 9.1 mm in size and weighs about 200g. It has an IPS LCD display that measures 6.53 inches in size and has about 84.0% screen-to-body ratio.

The smartphone has a display resolution of 1080 x 2340 pixels and it contains a punch hole notch on the left portion to house the front camera. Also, the display is supported with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 to offer extra durability to the smartphone.

Performance:

The smartphone is powered by a MediaTek MT6853 Dimensity 800U 5G chipset that is octa-core in nature and is clocked at 2.4GHz. This 7nm chipset is good enough for the gamers and even for the basic users. Most importantly, it has dual 5G connectivity which means the smartphone can support 2 5G SIMs at a time. Also, the device has Android 10 support with MIUI 12 and Mali-G57 MC3 as its GPU.

RAM and ROM:

The smartphone occurs in 2 variants of RAM and ROM and you get the desired one according to your needs. The lower variant comes with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage while the higher variant contains 4GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. While this is meant for the budget buyers, I think the specifications would do well enough.

Camera:

The smartphone has a really good camera section as well. It contains a 48MP + 2MP + 2MP triple rear camera with features such as LED flash, HDR, and panorama. Also, it supports video recording with 4K@30fps, and 1080p@30/60fps. The rear camera is good enough for taking photos and videos even during the night.

Apart from this, the smartphone has a really good front camera as well. It contains a 13MP front camera that would not only make your selfies better but would also offer you better assistance during your video calls. If you already have an idea about Xiaomi cameras, you would know that the picture quality out of these is really good.

Battery:

As far as the battery section is concerned, the smartphone has a really good 5000mAh battery that should last a pretty long period of time, even if you play games on it. Also, the battery is supported by 18W fast charging support which is good enough to charge your smartphone quickly.

Other Specs:

Among other major specifications, the smartphone contains a Face Unlock feature, Fingerprint (side-mounted), accelerometer, gyro, proximity, compass, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band, Wi-Fi Direct, hotspot, stereo speakers, and water-repellent coating.

Price:

If you look at the prices online, while the lower variant with 64GB internal storage would cost you around $216, the higher variant with 128GB storage would cost you $259. And I think this is good enough for the users considering that the smartphone has other lots of good features.

So Xiaomi Redmi Note 9T is surely one of the best options in the budget segment considering its price and specifications. What do you think?
