realme, Redmi quick fight
To start off, the realme 6i has two variants a 3GB/64GB variant at PHP 7,990 and a 4GB/128GB variant for PHP 9,990. Redmi Note 9s also has two variants with a 4GB/64GB model for PHP 10,490 and a 6GB/128GB one for PHP 11,990.
Both devices have great color reproduction as well. Both also have respectable brightness as well.
Audio - For the audio, Redmi's linear speaker sounds better in our opinion with a richer sound. For headphone usage, realme 6i has a bit of an edge due to the equalizers it uses. For calls, its a close one as well with clear and crisp audio on both devices.
Those who watch a lot on their phones will enjoy the Note 9s better, but the realme 6i could have better battery life due to its lower-res screen.
Both have HDR mode, 2x digital zoom, portrait, night mode, and, AI assistance 48MP mode. realme 6i also has Chroma Boost which boosts colors if need be.
The realme 6i also has WiFi, 700MHz 4G LTE, OTG, fingerprint sensor, face unlock, splash resistance, Dirac HD Sound, splash resistance, Bluetooth 5.0, and USB-C port.
realme 6i advantages - More affordable, 700Mhz 4G LTE
Redmi Note 9s advantages - Better screen, faster CPU and GPU, bigger RAM option, better quad cameras, more features
Both run with Android 10 OS with different skins.
Our thoughts
But, realme 6i still managed to put up a good fight in other aspects. That's quite remarkable for a more affordable device.
