Armed with a powerful processor and camera, dozens of features, and one of the most unique designs ever created for a smartphone, the realme 9 Pro 5G series was recently showcased at Paris Fashion Week – bringing together the world’s of style and technology in a package full of industry and segment firsts.
realme’s Design Studio brought their signature combination of cutting-edge tech and eye-catching designs to the table with the 9 Pro 5G series – this manifested with the stunning one-of-a-kind ‘Light Shift’ design – showcasing a modern, youthful energy backed by top-tier materials research and craftsmanship. With strong ties to both music and the visual arts across collaborations and product designs, realme stays committed and connected to the young consumers of tomorrow.
With plenty of features, excellent baseline specs, and a head-turning backplate design, there’s a lot to
unpack here. Let’s get started with the surface details:
Taking Smartphone Design to the Next Level
While the realme 9 Pro+ 5G packs a serious arsenal of camera, processing, and even battery upgrades over its competitors, it also offers one of the most unique design concepts ever seen in a smartphone.
realme Design Studio first compiled several photographs of sunrises from fans across 9 time zones – resulting in a confluence of sunrises from across the planet. These were then distilled into two perfect shades – the quiet blue of dawn, and the blazing red that accompanies a rising sun.
The result is the realme 9 Pro+ 5G’s Sunrise Blue finish. After over 200 attempts, realme’s experts crafted a dual-layer photochromic process, resulting in a beautiful finish that, under the sun’s UV rays, quickly shifts from blue to a radiant red.
It isn’t just about personal aesthetics, either. This year, realme decided to flaunt their style quotient – right on the world stage – appearing in a practical, stylish chest strap created in collaboration with HELIOT EMIL for Paris Fashion Week 2022.
Masters of minimal, high-precision techwear, Copenhagen-based HELIOT EMIL was created by brothers Julius and Victor Juul – who named the studio after their great grandfather’s legacy as a master craftsman.
Seeking inspiration from realme’s ‘Light Shift’ concept, the brand’s subversive impressions and critical eye for detail cut through Paris Fashion Week’s 2022 lineup, fusing creative expression and a technical aesthetic with realme’s stunning new design technology.
It’s not all looks, either.
The realme 9 Pro+ 5G is one of the world’s first flagships to feature MediaTek’s Dimensity 920 5G processor, the fastest 5G processor in the segment with a 90Hz Super AMOLED Display. It is also the first in the segment to feature a benchmark-leading 50MP Sony IMX766 lens, with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) in the primary camera which works across videos, photos, and other modes while EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) keeps videos shot by the realme 9 Pro+ 5G smooth and shake-free.
The realme 9 Pro+ 5G is also India’s first smartphone to feature an in-display fingerprint reader with a heart-rate sensor. All this kit is kept running with a powerful 4500 mAh battery and 60W SuperDart charging that gets you all the way to 50% in just 15 minutes. This means that whether you’re simply chatting with friends or enjoying your favorite music via the Dolby Atmos Dual Stereo speakers, you’ll be running strong all day long.
It’s also the slimmest smartphone in the realme Number series, weighing in at a feather-light 182g while measuring only 7.99mm in thickness.
The realme 9 Pro+ 5G comes in Sunrise Blue, Midnight Black and Aurora Green, and comes in three variants: –
6+128GB (Rs. 24,999)
8+128GB (Rs. 26,999)
8+256GB (Rs. 28,999)
