Redmi Note 9s to Go Official in the Philippines on May 4

Given that you have all the time to scroll through your Facebook news feed, you probably already seen Xiaomi Philippines teasing the arrival of Redmi Note 9S. The upcoming affordable phone was introduced last week as the global variant of the India-specific Redmi Note 9 Pro. During that time, Xiaomi released the official prices for other countries. See the list below.

Like the Redmi Note 8 Pro, the starting model of Redmi Note 9s comes with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. This also allows the device to be as cheap as possible. Last year, the predecessor launched with a price of P11,490 for the same configuration. Hopefully, Xiaomi can manage to undercut the competition with its strong value proposition.
