The Redmi 9 – M2004J19G – has surfaced
again, this time it was the FCC that released certification data and along with
it some salient details about the upcoming phone. It will launch with MIUI 11,
if that was ever in question, which likely means Android 10 out of the box.
The phone will be powered by a 5,000mAh
battery. Unfortunately, there’s no info on the charger – there was some
speculation that it will be 10W, a downgrade from the 18W charger the previous
model used.
Some may not like it, but the new Redmi 9
will be larger than its predecessor – the dimensions seem to confirm the 6.6”
screen, up from 6.22” on the Redmi 8. This will be an LTE phone, it’s too early
for the series to go 5G. It will also support 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi with
802.11ac, aka Wi-Fi 5.
With certifications taken care of, now
it’s up to Xiaomi when it will unveil the new Redmi 9.
