The Note 9S comes with a USB type C port, sorry about the error in the video.

[@itzdanny8024]

Is it worth buying now

[@bishoos123]

The reason the phone is cheaper is not because it comprises its because they dont advertise their phone on tv but online and sell their phone online to reduce costs so this phone is worth a 300+ phone.

[@jerrybandy3827]

Good review. I've been using the 6GB version here in the US for a few months and still love it. Now just waiting for MIUI 12. Edit: Got the MIUI 12 update and all is fine. Now waiting on Android 11.

[@Denariio]

Thanks so much for the video, I appreciated all of it from start to finish. You've convinced me to buy the phone. I come from a history of budget smartphones so my expectations aren't high anyways, Redmi note 9s does the job it was intended to do very well.

[@odinmandu2184]

I'm pretty impressed by this phone Makes me scared that the next iteration may not be as good

[@ronch550]

Hi. I've noticed that the output from the 3.5mm jack is a little weak. Have you noticed this also? I noticed this when I compared it to my Redmi Note 8 Pro's 3.5mm output.

[@yuchub7389]

How about while using it for navigation? Xiaomi not good in making strong gps signal. My mia1 always have issue w waze.

[@laurenceharvey6202]

I`ve spent years trying to find a phone that simply does what all phones should do and until this morning have failed! Iv`e recieved the Redmi Note 9s today and i`m absolutly gob smacked as camera`s are very good, battery seems great, the speed is very quick indeed with no lag at all, speakers are good, screen is good, easy to use with lots of usefull apps, signal and call quality seems good so i ask myself WHY HAS NO OTHER COMPANY PRODUCED A PHONE LIKE THIS EVEN AT £700 (saying no names oneplus or samsung or motorola lol....ahem). If this Note 9s proves to be as good for the next week or so then it`s a win win for Xiaomi and you should be advertising this brand on TV. I`ve even tried the oneplus 7t and that failed with signal issues and rubbish battery life so again well done Xiaomi.

I can't get myself to like the Redmi note 9 series. The phone sucks compared to my Redmi note 8 Pro. Point of correction!!. This display is not HDR 10 certified. A HDR display must have at least 500 NITS brightness. This device display is below 500 nits which is not great

The camera looks great. But the ultra wide isn't cool.
