After teasing the release, Xiaomi Nepal has officially taken the wrap off its new phone, the Redmi 9 Power in Nepal. It’s a lower mid-range phone that joins the rank of the Redmi 9 and Poco M2, both of which share similar specs.
However, the Redmi 9 Power, as its moniker suggests, has one big advantage over both of its counterparts — it’s the 6,000mAh battery. Also, instead of the Helio G80, the phone has a Snapdragon 662 chipset with 4GB of RAM and 64GB/128GB storage. The front, though, is still the same 6.53-inch IPS LCD display (1080 x 2340 pixels resolution), while it still ships with Android 10 and MIUI 12.
At the back is where you’ll see some changes. The Redmi 9 Power has an upgraded 48MP primary sensor instead of the 13MP on both Redmi 9 and Poco M2. The remaining three are an 8MP ultrawide, and two 2MP depth and macro helpers. For selfies, the phone has an 8MP front shooter inside the waterdrop notch.
