This mobile phone is the worst in the world Especially the RAM model 3GB The device freezes and does not respond.
I had to press and hold the power off button to reboot the system. The rom is terrible, the developer never updates the system. OTA Fix problems with software that malfunctions The system consumes too much of the device's resources, causing it to freeze. My English may be strange. I use google translate

The worst phone that you can ever buy. Instead go buy an older and cheaper version of iPhone or Samsung from 5 years ago, still will be better than this.
The only positive is the endurance of it. It will not break no matter what you do and you will not need to replace it. Don't buy it, never again anything from xiami!

A HUGE rant, but here goes...
(This is my experience of the Redmi Note 9 3/64 Model, it might be different if you have a better configuration)
This has got to be the WORST smartphone experience in my life by far. This phone is borderline unusable to me for the following reasons.
1) The phone really, and I mean "really", likes to freeze, even just doing everyday tasks; browse social media apps for a while --> freeze, play games (that's not even that demanding) --> freeze, use the camera app --> freeze, load a heavy web page using chrome --> freeze. And believe me, I tried to make it usable (because it's my phone, after all), I tried clearing apps after I don't need to use them from my recent, I tried clearing the RAM, I tried to use it normally without clearing the RAM, I tried both turning on and off the virtual memory feature, I tried factory resetting, all of them to no avail and eventually coming to the same conclusion, freeze.
2) Retainment of apps. Whenever I tried to switch apps to do other things and switch back to the app I was using, It will be very likely that the app that you were using will have to reload. This makes me have to be careful on what I chose to do on my phone. For example, I got an email from someone, I clicked the notification to read and perhaps reply to that email. When I come back to what I was doing. The thing just decides to reload and I lose track of what I was doing. Very annoying.
3) The camera. For whatever reason, when taking pictures using 1x level zoom, the picture will come out blurry. Only when I use 2x, then the picture is significantly clearer, but then I'd have to walk out to get more field of view which is just ridiculous. Also, when scanning QR codes using the camera app, I have to walk so close into the QR code for it to register, even though I can zoom into to it and see it just fine. Also, did I mention that it'd freeze sometimes when I used the camera app?
And you know what is the best part? All of the above issue persists throughout MIUI 11 to 13, without any meaningful fix. What a joke.
And I know some of you might think "Hey, I don't have that problem!". Well, first of all, mine is the 3/64 model, which admittedly, is the worst one out of all the possible configurations. However, Xiaomi shouldn't release a phone if it is this bad. Even if it's cheap. This is just unusable and shows the lack of care to the customers. This thing is so bad that I wouldn't even wish my worst enemy to use this phone.... You know what, never mind that. I wanted my worst enemy to use this phone, so that they can suffer haha.
Also, I aware that custom rom exists, but It is way too inconvinience for me to it, also I do not want to risk the possibility of not being able to use banking apps.
Now, to be fair to this phone. The one saving grace it has is it's battery. It has one of the best battery life in a smartphone I've ever experienced. I can go a whole day with a full charge with somewhat moderate use, with some juice remaining at the end of the day. And the SoT is quite impressive, too.
With that said, It has been long since I had moved on to another phone by now (about half a year, and no it's not a Xiaomi). And I could fully said that it was one of the most liberating feelings I've had in a while. No more have I had to deal with the freezes, the camera is much better and the performance of the new phone is just miles better than this mess. It speaks volume on how bad this thing was when I still remember how bad it was when I used it, even after more than 6 months. What a shame.
