Design

The screen is made of Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The smartphone body is made of plastic and has a "wavy" texture on the Redmi 9T/9 Power and Redmi Note 9 4G, while the Poco M3 has a leather-like texture.[9]

The only design difference between the Redmi 9T/9 Power and the Redmi Note 9 4G is that the Redmi Note 9 4G has the inscription "AI" instead of the fourth camera module. In the Poco M3, the upper part has a black glossy insert with the brand logo, which extends almost the entire width of the back panel.

At the bottom is a USB-C port, a speaker, a microphone, and a 3.5mm audio jack. At the top, there's a second microphone and an IR blaster. On the left side, you'll find a slot for two SIM cards and a microSD memory card of up to 512GB.[10] On the right side, there are volume control buttons and the smartphone's power button, which also has a built-in fingerprint scanner.

There are several color options, depending on the model:

  • 9T: Carbon Gray, Twilight Blue, Sunrise Orange, Ocean Green
  • 9 Power (India): Mighty Black, Fiery Red, Electric Green, Blazing Blue
  • Note 9 4G: Gray, Green, Blue, Orange
