Redmi Note 9S (9 Pro) Review: $200 Powerhouse

[@jhosewidh02]

This is an awesome review video, there was no long introduction, no boomy BGM intro like others - just straight to the point, straight dive into the what the viewers came here for! Great job! keep it going ! :)

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you!

[@FrankieTech]

Great video bro! I used to turn off the caption for my videos but then people started claiming results were from another phone or fake so now I keep them on! 😂

[@Pomacat]

Good review as always. I like to watch your reviews too see what we are missing out here in the USA.

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you!

[@662chillin]

Right. I think that if more people were up on Xiaomi, Dodgee and other budgets brands it would force the big brands to bring their prices down

[@Billzloveschelsea]

I love how you got straight to the point and you're really good at explaining things. I just subbed to your channel.

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you

[@bmdesiertobd]

Just wanted to buy this. And I think your review made me finalize my decision to get it. From Hong Kong with ❤️

[@bensgadgetreviews]

Thank you!

[@ritual301]

Pretty crazy that they release Note 9 Pro at a cheaper price than you can currently find the older Note 8 Pro on Amazon. Not entirely sure how much better it is than it's older sibling, but at that price with its updated software and promising 720 chip, seems like a steal to me. Thanks man, take care:)

[@lukeet331]

The helio is more powerful than the 720, design of the note 8 pro is nicer other than that it's a better phone

[@ritual301]

@@lukeet331 Big fan of the Note 8 Pro here, too. That G90T chip was better than the 730, in terms of overall performance, so I wouldn't be surprised if the same is true here also. 720 should be more efficient, and up to date with Wifi and whatnot, though. Guess it's performance would depend on how well everything is optimized. Be interested in seeing some comparison videos soon.

[@moemensuper1796]

@@ritual301 the mediatek helio G90T heats much much faster than the snapdragon 720g and does not have full support of Gcam and mediatek got caught cheating in benchmark scores so

[@silverarrow2013]

@@lukeet331 Gaming it's a bit better but efficiency not that great, sure the Realme 6 is faster at charging but with 5020mAh and capable of 22W fast charge its better, a 60% RN9S would still last longer than a 100% Realme 6, and WiFi and Bluetooth connection is better on the RN9S plus the Overheating issue is still there, and at 30Mins of gaming the G90T gets really really hot so imagine playing in the summer or when you're in a Hot environment, your phones performance will go down if you know about cars it's the same with gadgets, the cooler it is the better the performance it will basically always stay at it's peak performance when its cool, so if you can't keep that G90T cooler than the SD720G or SD730G it will lose it's advantage of being faster and note it's not even that big of a gap from the SD720G and SD730G to begin with also not many apps ang games supports 90hz, but still at the end of the day it's your money and it all goes down to the SoC so think about what I told you very carefully. Mediatek or Snapdragon?

[@silverarrow2013]

@@aurustius Yeah no NFC but the RN9S has an IR blaster and the Realme 6 doesn't so it depends on what you want.

great video, i like the details and your analysis, consider a better microphone for indoors and a better normalization in sound, you sounded less in voice while speaking indoors. Keep up the good work, you have a positive outcome and professional feel, if you got better in small details like the ones i told you you will be superb, thanks for your video friend

[@stylebent]

How much of a hassle is it or how much time do you need to turn off the "caption"? Isn't like the settings to that isn't easily accessible/available. Yeah, probably nobody ever likes or want that, but I think Xiaomi is smart enough to keep it on by default so people know right off the bat they offer this feature and if those people belong to the category where they don't like it, turning off is just like 5 seconds away. And by doing that is also where you learn how to navigate yourself to the settings, etc. so in future it'd be way more convenient for you to alter if need be. Also, in the settings of that I believe there was this timestamp feature too which I thought was really useful. Thumbs up for the great review btw!

[@SomeUnremarkableGuy]

What about the quality of the microphone while recording the video? That`s the problem Xiaomi had for years even on their flagship phones to this day.

[@notagain2856]

There is stereo recording and quality has improved. But the bitrate is still relatively low at 96 kbps.

[@goodman7084]

Is it better or realme 6 ?

[@worldforalll]

I like that camera set up in the CENTRE and that blue colour 👍

[@YonicSeven]

I want realme 6 pro but after all that. I've made my decision. It convinced me to buy note 9s or the pro max from your review and other KZbin reviewers. I know 90hz is a deal right now on how this refresh rate can be experienced in this badget segments. BUT??? if its not that solid as 90hz it is still a bluffed. In camera I see note 9s is better with that GM2, dynamic range, color accuracy and the image processing. While r6 and r6 pro using GM1 with telephoto. By this you will know realme 6 and pro is just refresh rate but its not what it must and now having type C finally. Retailed for 200 bucks you cant complain with it. For note 9s and pro max you may still have 60hz but its more solid for 200 bucks.

The naming conventions used by Xiaomi are so damn confusing. This is the international version of the Xiaomi Note 9 Pro yet a phone named Xiaomi Note 9 Pro is coming out in May: www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_note_9_pro-10217.php It's slightly different from this one (notice the cameras on the back).

Does this phone has NFC? If yes, it's an absolute steal. Realme 6 90hz screen might be a winning feature, but if the 9S has NFC I'd pick that over refresh rate as we go into e-money centric transactions.

Yeah if you dont mind heating issue. Realme 6 has the same chipset with Redmi note 8 pro except Realme 6 dont have a liquid cooling technology. Imagine a G90T without liquid cooling lol it will only last an hour or so on gaming before you can feel its heating issue.phone with heating issue will be a disaster it can cause some hardware failure. But if you are a social media person i recommend this scrolling in 90hz refresh rate is so damn good but for gaming? Like i said before if you dont mind heating issue go for it
