If you want good cameras, avoid all Infinix. Redmi Note 8 camera is easily better than any Infinix phone camera. Redmi Note 7 is even better for camera, especially with Gcam installed - but a bit less performance.

But no matter what, don't buy Redmi Note 9. It's the worse phone Xiaomi has released in years. Horrible camera & performance.

Even if you don't know about phones, you can tell by seeing that 90% of the reviews here are disappointed users.

I have changed a lot of expensive phones.Last year I said that so much money for a phone aren't worth it so I looked for a budget smartphone and I took the redmi note 7.This phone made me believe even more that it is not worth it to buy expensive phones.This year I was about to continue with the redmi lineup and I bought the note 9.I made a horrible mistake.This phone is completely garbage the first phone in my life that I hate so so much.It lags like crazy I can't do nothing without lagging.I made a lot of research and find some things that might help but no.This phone I the worst I have ever used to the point that is seems funny.Avoid it without regrets

Renot, 29 Nov 2020Nice, updated miui 12.0.3.0 now playable Genshin impact, stable 30-40fps lowestAre you sure it's the same phone? I'm pretty sure it's 12.0.4.0 is the latest Redmi Note 9 firmware, and it was released months ago.

Anonymous, 25 Nov 2020Please guide me Redmi note 9 or realme 5 pro?? Which one is better with camera as well proce... moreEasily Realme 5 Pro!!!

Performance:
- Snapdragon 712 is way more powerful than Helio G85, so it has much better performance. It's built on 10nm, meaning it's more battery efficient & heats less.

- Secondly, SD 712 has better & proper app optimisation unlike Helio G85, which app optimisation issues.
On Redmi Note 9, many apps on Play Store say "Your device is not compatible with this version", or lag despite not being heavy apps due to this.

Basically, even if you play PUBG on lowest possible graphics on Redmi Note 9, it'll still give less FPS than what Realme 5 Pro gives on HD Graphics (or at least Balanced Graphics).


Camera:
Camera of Realme 5 Pro is MUCH better than Redmi Note 9. It also has better Gcams, which further improves quality a lot - and its chipset allows much better functionality in camera than Redmi Note 9.

- Redmi Note 9 selfie camera capture horrible details due to its poor apertures (f/2.3) & low 13MP camera. It simply shouldn't be used unless you've good lighting around you.
It's actually much worse than Realme 5, Redmi Note 7 & Redmi Note 9. Even Realme 3 if used Gcam.

- Realme 5 Pro can record videos in 4K resolution,
1080p with 30, 60 & 120fps,
and even 720p with 960fps.
With Video Stabilisation! (Eis)

- While Redmi Note 9 only records videos in 1080p with only 30fps.
It doesn't even have video stabilisation (lol).


I know someone who sold Realme 5 Pro to buy Redmi Note "9s". He said the camera is similar. So if you want to compare Realme 5 Pro camera, you should compare it with Redmi Note 9s - not this phone.

Redmi Note 9 camera should be compared with Realme 3, or at best Realme 5 - but Realme 5 is much better in terms of videos as well.
