Had this phone for a few days now, I live in Malaysia. Here's what I can summarise about this phone. Bought it for RM659 ~US$150 during a sale which is crazy cheap, now it hovers around $159. The camera is OK, takes amazing day photo. Night mode is pretty spectacular if you know where to fiddle around in Pro mode. Just adjust the exposure value (EV) or its shuttle speed and you can literally take great night shots, I would say 10 times better than its own pre-config Night mode. Videos are OK, no stabilisation at 1080p 60fps only 1080p 30fps max. Speakers are fine for a single speaker. Gaming is fine, surprisingly better performance than my Mi Note 10 with its 730G. Battery life however is spectacular. I get 9 hours of SOT consistently, and i use it a lot, more so during this quarantine.

tldr: 9/10.

    Does have redmi note 9 s optical zoom for camera?

I did turn on the "raise to wake" setting and there's an update for my Note 9S to MIUI 11.0.3(Mine comes with MIUI 11.0.1 when I first receive it). So far after the update, there have been no issue of it auto restart but guess I'll turn off the setting later.

                    J.Brandoe, 20 Apr 2020May i know this phone worth to buy ?If you're more into performance and battery life, I can say Note 9S worth your penny. But check out on these phone if it's available on your area, Realme 6 or Samsung Galaxy M31. The former was all-rounder with the only midranger pose 90hz refresh rate LCD, except it's battery is the smallest(4300mAh). The latter got humongous battery(6000mAh) and Super AMOLED screen(Both other phone comes with IPS LCD, instead), though I heard Samsung's M series only for Indian market(Not sure if M31's release globally) and the Exynos 9611 chipset is inferior compare to both Redmi and Realme(Snapdragon 720G and Mediatek Helio G90T, respectively). Check on these before make decision, bud.

                                  I just got my Note 9S early this week and there's a time when I try to unlock my phone via fingerprint, everything just freeze and it's automatically restart. Did anyone face this kind of issue before? I never use any Xiaomi phone before and more to Samsung, I just found during my research that this kind of error frequently occur on Xiaomi device.

                                        Anonymous, 17 Apr 2020Is your information official? Nothing is official before the formal announcement. The rumors are from the people who are working on the engineering samples, but also from the various hints given by Xiaomi executives in recent days. No they are not talking about the so called "Note 9 (G80)" as discussed on this site, because the SoC of interest is a 5G SoC, and has absolutely nothing to do with G80.
