Hi friends, The Redmi family is about to get bigger in India. Just a week after launching the Redmi 9, Redmi India is set to announce the entry-level Redmi 9A.
The manufacturer has set Wednesday, September 2, as the launch date for the smartphone and has also announced that it will go on sale on Friday, September 4. Redmi India is also going to announce a new pair of wired earphones on the same day. So if you will be picking up the device when it launches, you may also want to grab a pair of new earphones as there won’t be one in the box.
The Redmi 9A will have a 6.53-inch HD+ display which is bigger than that of its predecessor but it will keep the waterdrop notch. There is an Helio G25 processor under the hood powering the device. While the international variant has 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, there is a chance the Indian version will have a different configuration.
The phone will have a single 13MP camera on its back and a 5MP selfie camera. Just like the Redmi 8A, it will have a 5000mAh battery capacity, but disappointingly, there is no 18W charging this time around and the USB-C port has been swapped for a MicroUSB one. The Redmi 9A will run MIUI 12 based on Android 10 out of the box.
The Redmi 9A launched in Europe for €99 (~INR 8,625) but it should be cheaper in India since the Redmi 9 which has better specs is priced at INR 8,999 (~€103) for the base model with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage
