realme has confirmed the launch of realme 9 series smartphones in India on March 10th after the launch of realme 9 Pro and 9 Pro+ last month. The phone already confirmed the launch of realme TechLife Watch S100 alongside, and it will also launch the realme TechLife Buds N100 at the event.
The teaser shows that the realme 9 5G SE will feature a 144Hz screen and Snapdragon 778G 5G SoC and the standard realme 9 5G model will be powered by Dimensity 810 SoC. The company says that the realme 9 SE will offer up to 40% CPU and GPU improvements compared to the predecessor. Even the realme 8s was powered by Dimensity 810 SoC.
The phones will have a fluid light design that uses 6-layer grain processor, and will be 8.5mm slim body. The image also confirms 48MP main camera for the phone along with two other cameras, but the placement of the cameras and the flash is different in the phones.
