Realme is getting ready to launch its Realme 9 series smartphones. These devices have been expected since last year, after all, Realme is known for releasing two generations of number series every year. However, we believe that the company had its share of problems amid the crisis in the component market. Anyway, now it's history as the company has officially kicked off the Realme 9 series with the release of the Realme 9i. The company has also confirmed the launch of the Realme 9 Pro series soon. It will bring Realme 9 Pro and Realme 9 Pro+ with 5G connectivity. Realme 9 is also in development if you ask me. The device may arrive later, and judging by the latest evidence, it may disappoint those who expect big changes.
Realme 9 5G looks identical to Realme 8 5G
Realme 9 has yet to receive an official launch schedule. Meanwhile, the device has been spotted on the FCC website revealing its design. According to the images seen, the device could be a rebranded Realme 8 5G. That's right, Realme could at worst just change the name of last year's smartphone in order to sell it again. Otherwise, we see the same design, but with slightly different characteristics. It's the best option, but it's still disappointing for those expecting a brand new smartphone.
Apparently, Realme 9 5G will cost less than Realme 9i. That's right, a possible vanilla 5G smartphone will be cheaper than the 9i, which offers one of Qualcomm's latest 4G SoCs. If that's true, then choosing last year's specs makes sense. According to the listing, it will ship with 18W fast charging. That's less than the Realme 9i, as well as the Realme 9 Pro models that come with 33W fast charging this year.
According to the FCC, other than the model number, the device is electronically identical to the original Realme 8 5G hardware. Initial test results continue to be representative and applicable to him. The device has a rectangular camera module on the back with a triple camera setup. It can be a 48MP or 64MP camera. Other sensors are probably cheap macro and depth sensors.
