Redmi Note 9 Pro VS Poco X3 NFC, Which is the Best?

Redmi Note 9 Pro vs Poco X3 NFC

Since the official arrival of the Poco X3 NFC, this has actually boomeranged for its own brother, the Redmi Note 9 Pro. Even though they are not siblings, they still share the same last name by Xiaomi.

The prices are almost the same, the specifications are almost the same, even to the naked eye, only the design is clearly different.

There is no smartphone in its class yet, which can disrupt the enmity of these two HPs.

However, even though everything is almost the same, let's try to peel what are the differences between these two smartphones.

7 Differences Redmi Note 9 Pro VS Poco X3 NFC

  • Design

Let's try to discuss the most striking aspects first, maybe subjectively we both know that the Poco X3 NFC backdoor is made of plastic, while the Redmi Note 9 Pro is made of Gorilla Glass 5.

As for setting up the camera position, both of them place the main camera, not in the mainstream, usually other HP series or other brands place their rear cameras.

This is an added value, especially in our opinion, the design of the main camera of the Poco X3 Pro is more eccentric, because maybe if someone imitates the design, the Poco X3 NFC is the trendsetter.

This is a plus for the Redmi Note 9 Pro because it uses a dedicated sim-card/microSD slot, while the Poco X3 NFC uses a hybrid slot. This means you can use two SIMs and a microSD simultaneously on the Redmi Note 9 Pro, but not on the Poco X3 NFC.

  • Screen

Even though the resolution and screen ratio of the two cellphones are almost the same, these two cellphones are even protected by glass technology from Corning, namely Gorilla Glass 5.

However, the Poco X3 NFC has embedded modern technology on its screen, namely a screen with 120Hz technology equipped with HDR10, which is claimed to be able to provide a better user experience than the Redmi Note 9 Pro.

  • Processor

The thing that has become a lot of debate is how can the Poco X3 NFC provide the same price as the Redmi Note 9 Pro, even though it uses a processor one level above it.

However, actually on paper, the specifications of the two processors are very similar between the Snapdragon 720G and 732G. Both have a size of 8nm and a similar clock speed, the difference is that the 720G uses Kryo 465 Silver, while the 732G uses Kryo 470 Silver.

  • Camera

This time the Redmi Note 9 Pro will be superior to the Poco X3 NFC. This is because the Redmi Note 9 Pro has a better main camera resolution than the Poco X3 NFC.

But for selfie cameras, the Poco X3 NFC is superior because it uses a 20MP f/2.2 resolution, while the Redmi Note 9 Pro is only 16MP with f/2.5.

  • Speaker

Which cellphone, with an initial price of 3 million, has stereo speakers installed? Only the Poco X3 NFC, of course.

But this was refuted when his younger sibling took out a cell phone of less than 2 million rupiah with stereo speakers, namely the Poco M3. As well as his half-sister, he also doesn't want to be left behind with the Redmi 9T priced at less than 2 million, which is also embedded with stereo speakers.

Redmi Note 9 Pro is clearly losing Vicigers in this sector.

  • bluetooth

Even though it looks trivial, we think that the different Bluetooth versions can be used as a comparison between these two smartphone rivals.

The Redmi Note 9 Pro has a lower Bluetooth version than the Poco X3 NFC, which is 5.0 vs 5.1. This means that the Poco X3 NFC should have better quality and bluetooth functions than the Redmi Note 9 Pro.

  • Battery

Actually, the battery capacity between the two cellphones is only slightly different, namely 5020mAh vs 5160mAh. The Poco X3 NFC is indeed bigger, but we think that the difference of only 140mAh will not have a big effect on the durability of these two cellphones.

However, for fast charging technology, the Poco X3 NFC is superior by supporting Xiaomi's turbo charging up to 33 Watts, while the Redmi Note 9 Pro only supports up to 30 Watts.

  • Conclusion

So in your opinion, which one is better? In our opinion, the choice is still in your hands.

We will tell you a little about the shortcomings of the Poco X3 NFC, because the rear backdoor uses a plastic material that is less solid. As a result, the backdoor will feel soft when pressed, and it will vibrate quite annoyingly when this cellphone makes a sound.

This can be suppressed by using a case on your Poco X3 NFC. Of course, this issue doesn't exist on the Redmi Note 9.

So after this, will you prefer the Redmi Note 9? If you want to experience the perfection of a cellphone at a price of 3 million overall, with a few drawbacks, maybe you can choose the Redmi Note 9 Pro, but if you rely more on the performance and stereo speaker features, please buy the Poco X3 NFC.
