Just as the Redmi Note 11 Pro models are set to launch, Realme comes announcing its Realme 9 Pro models. This time, there's a Realme 9 Pro+ that is set to take its game further up a notch. Realme confirmed it officially via a social media post and the leaks eventually revealed almost all of the specs and features. It seems that the Realme 9 Pro+ will take the game to the recently announced Xiaomi 11i series.

This year, there will be a regular Realme 9 Pro and a beefed-up Realme 9 Pro+. Leaked renders reveal identical design for both but it is the internals that will vary. The leaks, which are revealed by OnLeaks and Smartprix, show a design identical to the current Realme GT Neo 2. The specs reveal a more powerful processor and a better image sensor for the Pro+ variant.

Weirdly, the Realme 9 Pro+ will have a smaller 4500mAh battery when compared to the 5000mAh battery on the Realme 9 Pro. That said, the Pro+ will get a 65W charging solution whereas the lesser model will have to make do with 33W.

The biggest upgrade seems to be with the cameras. The Pro+ will get a 50MP custom Sony camera sensor with optical image stabilisation – a feature seldom seen in this price range. This will be accompanied by an 8MP ultra-wide camera and a 2MP camera. A 16MP selfie camera will sit inside the display cutout.

It seems that the Pro versions of the Realme 9 are setto take the game to the Redmi Note 11 Pro models, both of which are expected to launch soon. Leaks have so far confirmed the Redmi Note 11 Pro to have a MediaTek Helio G96 4G chip, while the Redmi Note 11 Pro 5G could get a 5G Qualcomm chip. Redmi is sticking to its 108MP camera sensor on both the models.
