Xiaomi Redmi NOTE 9s now available in Kenya
Xiaomi
Xiaomi Kenya has finally unveiled pricing for the new Redmi NOTE 9s. They’re going to be selling it for KES. 25,000 for the 6/128GB model and KES. 23,000 for the 4/64GB model. And it is already listed on their official Jumia Store online. At that price, it competes with very many devices in this mid-range category including devices from TECNO, Nokia, Samsung, and other Xiaomi devices. Personally, I’d be wondering which to go with at this pricing: Redmi Note 8Pro or Redmi NOTE 9?

The great thing is you get Gorilla Glass 5 protection, Infrared Blaster Support ,Splashproof protection, a powerful Snapdragon 720G, 6GB RAM, 128GB storage, and a huge 5020mAh plus a 48 Megapixels Rear Camera battery that supports 18W fast charging. If you’ve been asking for a low-cost gaming device, and this falls within reach of your budget… well there you go. Pick it up.
