Realme 9i has appeared in new images online. According to a report, the upcoming smartphone will launch first in Vietnam on January 10 before it arrives in other regions. The smartphone is tipped to sport a Snapdragon 680 SoC under the hood. Realme 9i was earlier spotted on AliExpress, with a 50-megapixel primary camera and a 5,000mAh battery. The smartphone was also spotted last month in a US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) listing that tipped the dimensions of the upcoming handset.

A teaser for the upcoming Realme 9i was shared by Realme Vietnam's Facebook page. The upcoming smartphone is tipped to feature a design similar to that of the Realme GT Neo 2 series, including a triple camera setup and a hole-punch display for the selfie camera. As mentioned above, the smartphone is expected to launch in Vietnam on January 10, according to a report by ThePixel.vn.

According to previous reports, the upcoming Realme 9i will launch with a Snapdragon 680 chipset, paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. The handset is said to sport a 6.59-inch (2400x1080) full-HD+ LCD display.

The upcoming Realme 9i is likely the successor to the company's Realme 8i smartphone that launched last year with a MediaTek Helio G96 SoC, paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Realme 9i was recently spotted in a US FCC listing that tipped the dimensions of the handset.

On the camera front, Realme 9i is tipped to sport a 50-megapixel triple camera setup featuring a 50-megapixel primary camera, along with a 16-megapixel selfie camera at the front. The smartphone is said to feature a 5,000mAh battery that supports 33W fast charging over USB Type-C. The smartphone is tipped to launch with Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 out of the box.
