Realme 9i review: affordable, but is that enough?

The Realme 9i only really stands out in terms of its price, so should you consider buying one in this busy 9 series range?

Available at an affordable price ; Large capacity, long-lasting 5,000mAh battery

Rear camera struggles in low light ; Performance isn't the best

The Realme 9i is a fairly ordinary smartphone, but it's available at a low, low price – and if that's what's most important to you when it comes to your next handset upgrade, you won't be disappointed about what you get in return for your money with...

Realme 9i review

Powerful battery performance, good cameras, and a decent display all add up to a winning package in the Realme 9i

Nice design ; 128GB storage as standard ; Long battery life ; 33W fast charging

Average performance ; No 5G ; 4GB of RAM

The Realme 9i is one of the best budget Android phones available to buy right now. It's not quite the best, but it offers great value-for-money and more than adequate performance if you just want a basic, inexpensive 4G smartphone.
