Flagship photography at midrange price: realme 9 Pro Series launched in the Philippines with up to P2,500 off

MANILA, Philippines — realme, the Philippines’ no. 1 smartphone brand for 2021 (based on Canalys and IDC sell-in reports for Q1-Q4 2021), invites Filipinos to #CaptureTheLight like a Pro with its latest Number Series lineup that offers flagship-level features in the midrange segment.

Launched via a special livestream event last March 15, the realme 9 Pro+ and the realme 9 Pro pack incredible features that are sure to cater to the needs of photographers and content creators.

The realme 9 Pro+ is equipped with ProLight Imaging Technology that comprises a 50MP Sony IMX766 flagship sensor, Dual Stabilization System with OIS + EIS and AI Noise Reduction Engine 3.0, designed to capture the best images even in low light.

The realme 9 Pro, on the other hand, packs a 64MP Triple Camera Setup that has been fine-tuned to capture high-resolution snaps in various lighting conditions.

“We at realme believe that features such as Low Light Photography shouldn’t be exclusive to flagship smartphones. We always aim to make industry-leading technology more accessible to our market, and with the realme 9 Pro Series, we did just that by bringing an innovative combination of hardware and software into the midrange segment,” said realme Philippines VP for Marketing Austine Huang.

“With the realme 9 Pro Series, our users can capture every moment like a Pro, no matter where they are or what kind of content they need,” she added.

Designed for photographers and content creators

With the industry-leading Sony IMX 766 camera sensor often seen in the flagship segment, the realme 9 Pro+ allows for more light intake to capture quality photos even in the darkest scenarios.

Together with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) and AI Noise Reduction Engine 3.0, the device addresses common factors that could make or break any shot taken in low light: camera sensor size, lighting conditions and movement.

In addition, the realme 9 Pro+ is equipped with a Triple Camera setup consisting of the main 50MP lens, an 8MP 119-degree ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2MP 4cm macro lens to cater to any photography need. The realme 9 Pro also packs this setup for its rear but with a 64MP main shooter.

Both devices are also designed with Street Photography 2.0 which has a new Smart Long Exposure feature with various modes to help take long-exposure shots with ease. Other features such as a new 90’s Pop Filter and Peak and Zoom capability are also included.

The realme 9 Pro+ and the realme 9 Pro also boast other top-notch features in addition to their photography component. The former is equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 920 5G Processor,  a 90Hz Super AMOLED Display, Vapor Chamber Cooling System and a 4,500 mAh battery with 60W SuperDart Charge.

The latter is equally capable with the Snapdragon 695 5G Processor, a 120Hz Ultra Smooth Display, Liquid Cooling System and a 5,000 mAh battery with 33W Dart Charge, among others. Both devices are equipped with Dynamic RAM Expansion for up to 5GB virtual RAM and run on the latest realme UI 3.0 based on Android 12.

Another notable innovation in the realme 9 Pro Series is the introduction of a Light Shift design for its Sunrise Blue variant, allowing the phone’s exterior to change hues from blue to red under direct sunlight. The realme 9 Pro+ and the realme 9 Pro are also available in a sleek Aurora Green colorway.
