This Realme 9 series model might soon debut in India as it receives BIS certification

After making headlines with its upcoming Realme GT 2 Pro that will come with the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, it looks like the company is gearing to launch Redmi 9 series as well. The Realme 9 series that might include Realme 9, Realme 9 Pro, Realme 9i and Realme 9 Pro/Max will debut globally in 2022.

It was spotted with the model number RMX3392.

For the unversed, a Realme 9 series smartphone, expected to be Realme 9 Pro, was recently spotted on the IMEI database with model number RMX3393. Earlier this year, Francis Wong, Realme CMO, announced on Twitter, “The tech industry has been largely impacted by the global shortage of CPUs. Brands can either make an agile product portfolio or compromise on the processors to use. We have quickly adjusted our product roadmap and hence #realme9series will be delayed to 2022.”

A report by ThePixel.vn (in Vietnamese) revealed that Realme 9i will be the first smartphone of the Realme 9 series to debut in India. It is expected to be launched in January 2022. The smartphone is likely to be powered by the MediaTek Helio G90T chipset instead of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870. Realme 9i is likely to be equipped with a 5,000mAh battery, and feature a quad-camera setup at the back. Additionally, the Realme 9 series is expected to be the first smartphone series to run on Android 12 based Realme UI 3.0.
