You are wrong. after a certain update, they added neflix HD support. You just need to reinstall the app after updating the phone Update : I lost widevine L1 after the latest update to MIUI 12.0.2
I have finally got my Redmi Note 9 Pro, its exactly as Will said, I like it a lot! Camera great, battery good, I like the LED notify, screen is nice, very fast and snappy! Very happy, thank you Will, keep up the excellent work!
Been using it for 1½ years. Came here to write a review for anyone looking to get it now. I loved it at first. The camera is good, the battery is good, the speakers are great, the tiny notification light is a blessing. But the experience has been horrible. Can't get around the MIUI themes app to set a custom notification tone for contacts on WhatsApp. Similarly lot of bugs with MIUI. With the latest update, I'm not getting network now. Sometimes calls don't even come or go. I've to use my old iPhone 5S to make calls. It's a pain. Definitely go for Google Pixel, or Samsung phones. Don't ever think of taking a Chinese MIUI stuff ever again!
Just like to thank Will and the team, after watching many of Wills reviews I found them to be all measured to the same bench marks, this makes it really easy to decide on a phone. I decided to buy the Redmi Note 9 Pro after watching this video! Once again thanks for the excellent work!
no the lcd is a huge turn off I haven't finished the video yet but I'm sure if it doesn't have an SD card slot then it's automatically a bad phone (￣ヘ￣) edit: cool it's expandable might be a good phone but an LCD is still underwhelming (; ‾ 3‾)♪
@@3mar00ss6 dude you want a cheap phone or a flagship? If you all of the good stuff for a low price try looking for a older flagship other than that this is basically the most you can get for this price on a new phone. A oled/amoled would increase the price in at at least more 100$ (or euros, pounds, etc)
A few more features: •You can crop and draw on screenshots right after taking them •There is a screen recording tool •There is a QR scanner tool •There is a Google lens* camera mode
Watching this video in my new phone "Xiomi Redmi Note 9" Here is my reviews after one and half months of use. Performance - Excellent Battery - Good Camera - Average ( I have been facing one issue many times while I am trying to lanch camera, a popup apper on the screen " Camera can't work at this time" Display - Good Sound - Average Design - excellent but sometimes primary camera bump is irritating.
Abdul, like how many hours does the battery lasts under heavy usage? Say internet browsing, watching videos etc...? I bought the Realme 5 pro around late February. Now it's having battery weakness. I wanna switch.
@@chimatasie7854 I bought the phone last month and I have to say the battery isn't good, it is excellent. You don't need to care about ruining out of battery as a 30 minute charge will make the phone last more than 5 hours. Charge it to the max and you are looking at 10 hours+ of usage.
Redmi Note 9 pro is a budget best phone in the market right now. No issues with the internals, but the back glass already got somewhat scratches so I applied a full body screen protector from gadgetshieldz to protect my phone.

Guys, only problem here is before u update your phone to new OS MIUI version , click a photo of solid red, Green Yellow and blue things. you can see it right colours . but after updating your OS to MIUI 12.0 the red and green color is seen faded and u will see the photos in mostly yellow shade. i have checked all the settings , but no clue. for better understanding try to click the same things before update. also note that when u send these image to some else they seem to have the original color, but on your phone the view is different. hoping it will be resolved after software update. the phone is bit heavy very thing is good at this price.

I have tried every flash sale for buying the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max but gone out of stock in less than seconds.Tried today also ☹️. Waiting for next sale on 1st July
@Billion ideas I came from the Galaxy S10, so at first it was quite an adjustment. Now almost 3 months later, I barely notice it. The weight is very evenly distributed, so that helps!
@@askinarslanbostan in all honesty the S10 is better on almost every way besides battery life and screen size. But the Redmi 9s is great because of its price, and for that I am very happy. I also sold the S10 for $550, when I bought it for $240 a year ago when I switched contracts so win win lol.
I have the Redmi note '9' and photos are crisp and clear! And switching Lenes is so simple! Unlike cameras in way better phones! It has the newest midiatek '85' chip and this phone is either way better than the pro model or you guys are being way to hard on it, oh and you're battery test idk I can't kill this battery ! Maybe it's some kind proto type but it's lasts more than 2days with heavy video watching , this phone is incredible!
@@harith_khaleelafter few months of use: camera is bit shitty, when it is low light, the green grass tends to be oversaturated, finger print scanner in the on/off button is annoying. Other than that, it's good.
Are these phones compatible with Android apps? I've been considering a dual sim cell however the last one I had was 14 years ago and all phones were pretty limited at that time.
You know what 😁 ! People talking about 90 hz refresh rate and Powerful chipset ! but i Like Low budget, Lower battery compsumption, New Design and New Chipset 😁 👍
O just bought that phone is awesome,thanks for the review! But you know what else is awesome in your video? The place you showing us for the phone details! Where is this place? I would love to stay there! 😉
I wish GSM Arena would address some of the real differentiating features of brands/devices in their reviews. The truth is most mid range phones and above are able to do a decent job for most people across the three main hardware areas - battery, camera and screen - and should in principle be able to perform well long term. Planned obsolescence should be considered in terms of build (unnecessary glass backs), software support (commitment to updates or track record) and repairability (battery pull tabs, screen replacement process) as all of these things affect resale value and usability long term (and short term depending on how clumsy or unlucky you are!). For example, this phone is brilliant. It has a lot of great specs for a low price. But the compromises are invisible until it's too late. The Redmi Note 4 from 2017 received only one major OS upgrade (Android 6 to 7). The OnePlus 3 from 2016 on the other hand is running Android 9. Some devices require dissembling and reassembling the whole device to replace a screen, others are almost as simple as popping it off and replacing it. Some batteries are heavily glued in place, some have little pull tabs to make replacement a breeze. Why should we be forced to abandon otherwise perfectly good phones (and waste our money on new ones) because of the design decisions of these companies? Shouldn't we be informed?
But you can't review the future. Yes there may be precedent, but you can't say "oh the previous gen had only 1 software update so maybe this one too". You review the things you observe on the phone. And frankly, resale value of midrange phones drop very fast so I'm not sure what is there to talk about there. And not everyone has the technical knowledge to break down the phone and look at how repairable the phone is and most people won't care. You want to know about that? Go to ifixit. The review's purpose is frankly just as a point of comparison for people trying to know the difference between each phone in a similar price point. Most people won't care about the stuff that you mentioned and for midrange phones, it's even less important as midrange phones tend to be more replaceable than those $1000 flagships.
@@starkk19 They care when they break them. The truth is apathy is brought about by helplessness - which is the whole point. If you can't fix it or update it, you resign yourself to getting a new one and that's the scam.
i bought redmi note 9 pro, and the first issue i found on this phone is, auto brightness/sunlight sensor, as we all know here in qatar sun is our enemy, my phone was exposed when i am using uber for 10 minutes. after that i got home, my screen, icons, background is still greyish color as if it is still detecting sunlight, i tried to turn of auto brightness reduced ng brightness, but still the color is grey instead of dark mode it is greyed out, all the icons and bland, images in gallery is affected, all the colors in youtube is different as if your eyes have issues you can really see the difference, reboot returns it to normal, the phone is good under the sunlight you can see all clearly, only the problem i experience is that after of exposure thw sensor is stuck, i'll keep you updated if it still happens, it's small issue but it's not good either
Hi brother I'm also live in Qatar and looking to buy this cellphone so tell me is it worth to buy or not or I'll go with Samsung A71..pls help me to find good cellphone..Stay blessed
How is the volume...?...i just had to return one i bought on ebay because it was way too low, even with the settings all turned up...i'd like to buy it again someday if i knew the volume got louder....
All my life I don't think i have used any phone as annoying as Redmi note 9 Pro..The performance is really low and it sucks.. I have been trying my best to make sure I am comfortable with the glitches and app failures.. Now the worse problem is the fact that my contact aren't saved to my phone anymore.. Which makes it difficult for me to identify my friends and family.. This started two weeks ago and I took the pain of wiping the phone, hoping everything will be back and fine... Yes it worked at first. But i just woke up to find out that it has gone back to the way it was.. My contact just unsaved it self.. I don't have names on most of my contact.. How can I fix this..
Dual sim, dedicated microsd, and decent battery life. Hope they continue this for future Notes so it'll be my phone when my intl G7 Power slows down too much. No reason to spend over $300 nowadays.
Then after unveiling the Redmi Note 9 pro, Xiaomi just announced the Redmi 10 Pro max lite XL T. It's like Xiaomi's released a hundred phones this month alone hahaha!
The earpiece does actually work and function as a speaker of its own, but you can only use it in calling situations. Bear in mind that for this reason it is not nearly loud compared to the loudspeaker. In platforms like discord, I have the ability to choose which speaker should work.
Screen goes blank when you are on call and cover the earpeice with finger that's because of the Presence of physical proximity sensor near earpeice. It does so to save battery + avoid phone heating. later phones like Redmi Note 10,11 does not have physical proximity sensor so you see more random screen on off issues on them
Need some advice.... how much difference does it make to play PUBg on a 4gb ram or a 6gb ram? As this is one major difference between the 9s and the 9pro
Ram doesn't matter in gaming... Processors does. And if u wanna choose between Note9s and Note 9 pro.... Go For Note 9s cuz its basically the same except for the camera... And the difference between 4 and 6 gb of ram is only the background apps... In 6 gb ram u can have a few more apps running in the background without problems.. Well For Example, let's just say that In 4gb u can 10 apps meanwhile in 6 gb ram u can have 12 apps that's pretty much it. 👍
finally, someone reviewed the led notification light most reviewers miss it.

@@fahimmuntasir3598in phone nowadays its slightly bit matter because they use it to "bind" the pixel meaning by having higher mp count the picture will be brighter unless they decide to not using pixel binning then mp is irrelevant
I have tried every flash sale for buying the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max but gone out of stock in less than seconds.Tried today also ☹️. Waiting for next sale on 1st July
do i get the note 9 or 10 launched today
This looks a bit like the s20 from the front,nice
Yes it looks premium for a mide range
@@abdousonko8040 lol with that bleeding around camera cutout, it definitely wont look or feel premium
i am really in love with this phone, i love Xiaomi and Huawei
Watching from my Redmi Note 9s. Such a good phone!
I wanted the 9s too but I needed the NFC more so I went for the 9 pro.
@Billion ideas I came from the Galaxy S10, so at first it was quite an adjustment. Now almost 3 months later, I barely notice it. The weight is very evenly distributed, so that helps!
@@smithsonsho6256 Would you say this phone is better than an S10?
@@askinarslanbostan in all honesty the S10 is better on almost every way besides battery life and screen size. But the Redmi 9s is great because of its price, and for that I am very happy.
I also sold the S10 for $550, when I bought it for $240 a year ago when I switched contracts so win win lol.
Widevine L1 means HD content, not SD. Widevine L3 means SD content.
How only SD content on Netflix when DRM L1? Level 1 means L1 right?
I have the Redmi note '9' and photos are crisp and clear! And switching Lenes is so simple! Unlike cameras in way better phones! It has the newest midiatek '85' chip and this phone is either way better than the pro model or you guys are being way to hard on it, oh and you're battery test idk I can't kill this battery ! Maybe it's some kind proto type but it's lasts more than 2days with heavy video watching , this phone is incredible!
What does NFC support do??? What is it's importance and how do you use it???
how much storage is left from 128gb upon booting it for the first time?
Recommended! Wanna get a tropical green colour really beautiful!
I've bought the green one ^_^

can you rate it from 1 to 10 for all aspects
@@harith_khaleelafter few months of use: camera is bit shitty, when it is low light, the green grass tends to be oversaturated, finger print scanner in the on/off button is annoying. Other than that, it's good.

and is this phone good for gaming

Are these phones compatible with Android apps? I've been considering a dual sim cell however the last one I had was 14 years ago and all phones were pretty limited at that time.
Of course they are. They are Android phones.
I have no idea what you had 14 years ago but that is a different lifetime to this current phones.
You know what 😁 ! People talking about 90 hz refresh rate and Powerful chipset ! but i Like Low budget, Lower battery compsumption, New Design and New Chipset 😁 👍
Is cod available on Amazon side?? Plz reply
is there a pro mode in the camera?
I just need to grind for 4 months to have this phone
Hii I just bought my redmi note 9 ... good but very slow to network...what can I do to improve its network
NIce that saw photos taken here in Bulgaria - lol .
Thanks guys and Merry Cristmas
I just bought mine, waiting for it to arrive. Guess I did the right choice between it and a Note 8
O just bought that phone is awesome,thanks for the review! But you know what else is awesome in your video? The place you showing us for the phone details! Where is this place? I would love to stay there! 😉
Wait are you guys in Bulgaria? Because the photo you took with the phone is in Bulgaria.
I wish GSM Arena would address some of the real differentiating features of brands/devices in their reviews. The truth is most mid range phones and above are able to do a decent job for most people across the three main hardware areas - battery, camera and screen - and should in principle be able to perform well long term.
Planned obsolescence should be considered in terms of build (unnecessary glass backs), software support (commitment to updates or track record) and repairability (battery pull tabs, screen replacement process) as all of these things affect resale value and usability long term (and short term depending on how clumsy or unlucky you are!).
For example, this phone is brilliant. It has a lot of great specs for a low price. But the compromises are invisible until it's too late. The Redmi Note 4 from 2017 received only one major OS upgrade (Android 6 to 7). The OnePlus 3 from 2016 on the other hand is running Android 9.
Some devices require dissembling and reassembling the whole device to replace a screen, others are almost as simple as popping it off and replacing it. Some batteries are heavily glued in place, some have little pull tabs to make replacement a breeze. Why should we be forced to abandon otherwise perfectly good phones (and waste our money on new ones) because of the design decisions of these companies? Shouldn't we be informed?
But you can't review the future. Yes there may be precedent, but you can't say "oh the previous gen had only 1 software update so maybe this one too". You review the things you observe on the phone. And frankly, resale value of midrange phones drop very fast so I'm not sure what is there to talk about there.
And not everyone has the technical knowledge to break down the phone and look at how repairable the phone is and most people won't care. You want to know about that? Go to ifixit.
The review's purpose is frankly just as a point of comparison for people trying to know the difference between each phone in a similar price point. Most people won't care about the stuff that you mentioned and for midrange phones, it's even less important as midrange phones tend to be more replaceable than those $1000 flagships.
@@starkk19 They care when they break them. The truth is apathy is brought about by helplessness - which is the whole point. If you can't fix it or update it, you resign yourself to getting a new one and that's the scam.
i bought redmi note 9 pro, and the first issue i found on this phone is, auto brightness/sunlight sensor, as we all know here in qatar sun is our enemy, my phone was exposed when i am using uber for 10 minutes. after that i got home, my screen, icons, background is still greyish color as if it is still detecting sunlight, i tried to turn of auto brightness reduced ng brightness, but still the color is grey instead of dark mode it is greyed out, all the icons and bland, images in gallery is affected, all the colors in youtube is different as if your eyes have issues you can really see the difference, reboot returns it to normal, the phone is good under the sunlight you can see all clearly, only the problem i experience is that after of exposure thw sensor is stuck, i'll keep you updated if it still happens, it's small issue but it's not good either
Hi brother I'm also live in Qatar and looking to buy this cellphone so tell me is it worth to buy or not or I'll go with Samsung A71..pls help me to find good cellphone..Stay blessed
Bro please how did you get the Google discover page
I want to to know after so much time passed. Does the redmi note 9 pro support Google services or can I install it?
@Blaine : Yes, Xiaomi supports Google services. I have 2 Xiaomi's Redmi note 9 Pro and Mi Note 10 Lite
Great review as always, also nice powerwolf shirt \m/
GSM is the best way to get a phone
How is the volume...?...i just had to return one i bought on ebay because it was way too low, even with the settings all turned up...i'd like to buy it again someday if i knew the volume got louder....
Hows this phone compare to xiaomi poco x3 in your opinion ? Thanks in advance
I would like to see more videos of such mid-range mobiles

All my life I don't think i have used any phone as annoying as Redmi note 9 Pro..The performance is really low and it sucks.. I have been trying my best to make sure I am comfortable with the glitches and app failures.. Now the worse problem is the fact that my contact aren't saved to my phone anymore.. Which makes it difficult for me to identify my friends and family.. This started two weeks ago and I took the pain of wiping the phone, hoping everything will be back and fine... Yes it worked at first. But i just woke up to find out that it has gone back to the way it was.. My contact just unsaved it self.. I don't have names on most of my contact.. How can I fix this..
Dual sim, dedicated microsd, and decent battery life. Hope they continue this for future Notes so it'll be my phone when my intl G7 Power slows down too much. No reason to spend over $300 nowadays.
Wooooah Sofia is very fancy. Where do you took these pictures which areas?

Please I need help with decision making. I have $250 and I don't know if am to go for Zero 8 or Redmi note 9s. Please can you help?
Good review as usual. Skimped on camera review at end though. Will be buying.
Then after unveiling the Redmi Note 9 pro, Xiaomi just announced the Redmi 10 Pro max lite XL T. It's like Xiaomi's released a hundred phones this month alone hahaha!
Hello, I'm planning to buy this. Is it good? Or is poco x3 nfc better?
For design this for specs x3
The earpiece does actually work and function as a speaker of its own, but you can only use it in calling situations. Bear in mind that for this reason it is not nearly loud compared to the loudspeaker. In platforms like discord, I have the ability to choose which speaker should work.
Screen goes blank when you are on call and cover the earpeice with finger that's because of the Presence of physical proximity sensor near earpeice. It does so to save battery + avoid phone heating. later phones like Redmi Note 10,11 does not have physical proximity sensor so you see more random screen on off issues on them

Need some advice.... how much difference does it make to play PUBg on a 4gb ram or a 6gb ram? As this is one major difference between the 9s and the 9pro
Ram doesn't matter in gaming... Processors does. And if u wanna choose between Note9s and Note 9 pro.... Go For Note 9s cuz its basically the same except for the camera... And the difference between 4 and 6 gb of ram is only the background apps... In 6 gb ram u can have a few more apps running in the background without problems.. Well For Example, let's just say that In 4gb u can 10 apps meanwhile in 6 gb ram u can have 12 apps that's pretty much it. 👍
