Realme 9 series smartphones have been rumoured to arrive in India since 2021 and an official confirmation from the VP of Realme tells us that the Realme 9 Pro and the 9 Pro+ are finally ready for launch and will be arriving soon in the country.
Madhav Sheth, VP of Realme posted a poll on Twitter yesterday asking the users to guess which smartphone Realme is bringing soon to India and choose between Realme 9 Pro and the 9 Pro+. After a few hours, he confirmed that both the Realme 9 series smartphones will arrive soon in India.
Out of these two, we have already seen the Realme 9 Pro leak ahead of the launch in India.

For optics, it is rumoured to have a triple camera system on the rear with a 64MP main shooter along with 8MP and 2MP lenses. It will have a 16MP selfie camera on the front.
