Realme 9 Pro Plus Full Review 2022

This is the Realme 9 Pro Plus. This gorgeous new mid-ranger has an eye-catching photochromatic design and a lot of features under the hood. Like many of realme's other phones, it has a lot of power at a bargain price. So should this be our next phone? I'm the review guy and this is the review of Realme Pro Plus. 

Realme 9 Pro Plus Design And Build 

If you're looking for a subtle device the sunrise blue version of this phone is not what you should get. The loud paint job changes from a more oil slick blue to a sunset red when exposed to UV light. The Realme 9 Pro Plus also comes in Arora green and midnight black either way it's gorgeous even if does tend to collect a few too many things fingerprints. Also the Realme 9 Pro Plus can stand on its own thanks to its flat bottom. So I guess you could say that it really stands out from the crowd. The back itself is made of glass while the frame is made of plastic. Sadly there is no splash protection on the side and the front is only protected by gorilla glass five. Unfortunately, the camera module juts out a little bit too much, and the phone wobbles when on a table. In the hands, it is comfortable with a solid feeling grip and it's not too heavy at 182 grams. There is an easy-to-reach optical fingerprint reader on the front which is fast and responsive it can double as a heart rate measurement tool if you are using real me's experimental software feature. 

Screen

The 9 Pro plus has 6.4 super AMOLED panel with a Full HD resolution and up to a 90 Hz refresh rate. It is the same panel as on the Real me 8 pro but with a higher refresh rate as far as the high rate goes if you choose either the 90Hz option or the auto-refresh rate mode. You will get 90 Hz most of the time unless the image is static or you're watching a video. The panel got a good maximum brightness of 613 nits when in auto mode as far as color accuracy is concerned vivid mode deviates towards blue. The standard model is a little reddish but the cinematic mode has very good accuracy. The Realme 9 Pro Plus supports Hdr10 and has widevine l1drm support. So you'll have Hd streaming across most platforms.

Speaker And Sound Quality 

The phone has our favorite legacy port the 3.5-millimeter jack and two speakers a bottom-firing one and a second one that doubles as an earpiece. The speakers are balanced which makes watching videos very pleasant. They got very good loudness on our tests and overall the sound quality was likable. Mid-tone and voices sound excellent while high notes are all right. 

Battery Endurance And Charging 

The 4500 milliamp-hour battery got the Realme 9 Pro plus a very good 117-hour rating on our endurance tests. The 60 watt super dart charger was just as impressive and got the phone from zero to 77% in 30 minutes and a full charge in 49 minutes. Though this is a great result and it is interesting to note that the same charger filled up the Realme 7 Pro and the Realme 8 Pro faster.

Hardware and Software 

The 9 Pro Plus has the Media Tek dimensity 920 5G chipset with either 6 or 8 gigs of RAM. The phone is competitive across the board and does great for its segment even better after long stress tests it had excellent marks and barely got warm. So if you're interested in gaming this phone is a good option. The Realme 9 Pro Plus is one of the first devices to run android 12 with realme UI 3.O. This version of realme's UI offers a more fluid interface and even richer customization options than before. Some of the new customizations include new always-on displays like a portrait photo turned into a sketch by the software. There is also edge lighting, the sidebar, new live wallpapers, new icon packs, and you can even choose different colors for the entire UI. As a whole, you can either proceed to take advantage of all the tools and settings and tweak the phone to your particular liking or just enjoy a hassle-free android experience. 

Camera Specs 

The 9 Pro Plus sports a standard triple camera setup. There's a 50-megapixel main camera with OIS, an 8-megapixel ultrawide, and a 2-megapixel macro cam. The main camera takes 12.5-megapixel photos by default and we really liked them. 

Conclusion 

This gorgeous beast of a phone has everything that you might want a great AMOLED panel, a powerful 5G capable chipset, a good main camera, and great battery life and charging however the pricing isn't the lowest around and we were actually expecting a lower launch price. Also, there is no ingress protection, and the ultrawide video could be better. So while we definitely recommend this phone there are some competing handsets like realme's own gt master that you might want to check out before you make a final decision.

So this is all for now. Thank you for reading this and we will see you on the next blog until then bye, take care and be safe.
