Should You Buy Redmi Note 9?

If we take a look at this price there is Realme’s Narzo 10, in which we get a plastic body, HD+ display with an old notch design, and a slightly less powerful chipset. So, in my opinion, thus Redmi Note 9 becomes a great choice for Rs. 12,000. In fact, you can also consider this if you are planning to buy a phone with Rs. 15,000 budget.
