The Redmi 9T is a series of Android smartphones from Redmi. It was introduced on January 8, 2021, together with the Redmi Note 9T. In India, the 9T was introduced on December 17, 2020, as the Redmi 9 Power. Also in China, on November 26, 2020, along with the Redmi Note 9 5G and Redmi Note 9 Pro 5G, the Redmi Note 9 4G was introduced, which is identical to the Redmi 9T and 9 Power except for the lack of a macro module.

Also, on November 24, 2020, the company POCO, whose global office had just separated from Xiaomi, introduced the POCO M3, which is similar to the Redmi 9T model but with a different design, the absence of NFC in all markets, and an ultrawide-angle module.

Design

The screen is made of Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The smartphone body is made of plastic and has a "wavy" texture on the Redmi 9T/9 Power and Redmi Note 9 4G, while the POCO M3 has a leather-like texture.

The only design difference between the Redmi 9T/9 Power and the Redmi Note 9 4G is that the Redmi Note 9 4G has the inscription "AI" instead of the fourth camera module. In the POCO M3, the upper part has a black glossy insert with the brand logo, which extends almost the entire width of the back panel.

At the bottom is a USB-C port, a speaker, a microphone, and a 3.5mm audio jack. At the top, there's a second microphone and an IR blaster. On the left side, you'll find a slot for two SIM cards and a microSD memory card of up to 512GB. On the right side, there are volume control buttons and the smartphone's power button, which also has a built-in fingerprint scanner.

There are several color options, depending on the model:

• 9T: Carbon Gray, Twilight Blue, Sunrise Orange, Ocean Green
• 9 Power (India): Mighty Black, Fiery Red, Electric Green, Blazing Blue
• Note 9 4G: Gray, Green, Blue, Orange
• Poco M3: Cool Blue, Poco Yellow, Power Black
