Realme 9i 5G Review
The race in the budget 5G market is getting super hot. And with Realme launching its 9i 5G, it gets even more packed. The phone looks like a decent buy and well-specced but hows the performance in day to day life.
The phone packs the same display and battery as the non-5G variant. So what makes it different from the vanilla version? The Realme 9i 5G stands out from the crowd due to its unique look and design.
However, is the cosmetic change enough to win over the market? Is it as good as the 9i or fails to stand against the tough competition? We’ll see that in this Realme 9i 5G review.

Let me get this straight, the Realme 9i 5G does not bring a lot of improvements or upgrades over the non-5G version. Realme is just putting its bet on the design factor, which is not the preference of everyone.
The performance is decent paired with the 90Hz display. The battery backup is good which adds to the overall user experience. However, Realme has cut many corners just to make an affordable 5G phone.
I cannot overlook the slow charging speeds, the lack of AMOLED display and underwhelming camera performance. Honestly, I wouldn’t say that the Realme 9i 5G is the best deal under 15K. There are many more options that you can consider in this price range like the POCO M4 Pro 5G.
