Product Overview

Xiaomi Redmi 9C is an entry-level smartphone in Xiaomi's 2020 Redmi lineup. It features a 6.53-inch HD+ display shared with the Redmi 9A, though a slightly more powerful MediaTek Helio G35 SoC is used.
The Redmi 9C comes with either 2GB or 3GB LPDDR4X memory and 32 or 64GB of eMMC5.1 storage.
Despite its positioning, the Redmi 9C comes with a large 5000mAh battery and Gorilla Glass 3. It also sports a microSD slot as well as the 3.5mm headphone jack, just like the Redmi 9A.
As a tradeoff, this entry-level smartphone still uses micro-USB port and WiFi 4.

Reviewers from notebookcheck have found the following***:
The Redmi 9C with 128 GB storage plays in the class of a Motorola Moto G31 or the in-house Redmi Note 8 2021. Both comparison devices feature Wi-Fi 5 and thus surf the internet much faster. MIUI 12 is based on Android 10, so further feature updates should not be expected. The main camera takes photos with a low dynamic range but with decent sharpness.
