Realme 9i 5G will launch in India on August 18th

Realme launched the 9i in January with the Snapdragon 680 SoC, and seven months later, the company is ready to unveil its 5G variant. Realme 9i 5G launch event will take place digitally Thursday, August 18 2022 at 12:30 PM on Realme’s social media channels, including YouTube and Facebook. 

Realme 9i 5G will be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 810 5G chipset, which has become pretty standard for entry-level 5G phones. As per the brand, it will be packed with a “massive battery” and an AI Triple camera setup. Let’s have a look at its detailed specifications and features.

Realme 9i 5G Design and Specifications

Realme 9i 5G will flaunt what the company calls a “Dazzling Design.” t comes with a flat rear panel and flat sides compared to the curved rear back and rounded-off edges of the 9i 4G. Realme is known for experimenting with different finishes for the rear panels of its devices. The 9i 5G is no different, as it gets a new laser light finish on the back panel. Thankfully, there’s no “Dare To Leap” branding here.

The 9i comes with a 6.6-inch FullHD LCD with a 90Hz refresh rate. It has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. You can expand the storage on the 9i by up to 1TB via a dedicated microSD card slot. The 9i 5G is confirmed to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 810 5G chipset.

The phone has three cameras on the back, including a 50-megapixel primary camera with PDAF, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel monochrome camera. Equipped with a massive 5000mAh battery with super power-saving mode, 9i offers uninterrupted consumption and usage for long hours. 

Realme’s Madhav Sheth recently told us that the company will launch a 5G smartphone in India in the category from INR 10,000 to INR 15,000, and it’s unclear if it was referring to the 9i 5G or another phone. For reference, the 9i 4G currently starts at INR 13,499 and goes all the way up to INR 15,999.
