The Redmi 9 Power is heading to India, and Redmi has made it official with a teaser video and a dedicated microsite on Mi.com. The company confirms the phone will arrive with a 48MP quad-camera setup and a large battery, though it has not yet locked in a fixed launch date.
What the Redmi 9 Power teaser confirms
Redmi India released a teaser video for its upcoming smartphone and set up a dedicated microsite for it on Mi.com. The page carries a 'Coming Soon' message along with a 'Notify Me' option for interested buyers.
The teaser confirms two headline features. The phone will ship with a 48MP quad-camera setup, and it will pack a large battery. The teaser image also suggests fast charging support is on board.

- Large battery capacity
- Fast charging support indicated by the teaser image
- 'Coming Soon' microsite with a 'Notify Me' sign-up
How we got here
The device surfaced earlier on the BIS certification site and in a Google Play console listing. A few days before the teaser, reports also pointed to a 15 December launch in India. For now, the company has not announced a fixed date.
Could the Redmi 9 Power be a rebranded Redmi Note 9 4G?
There is speculation that the Redmi 9 Power could be a rebadged version of the Redmi Note 9 4G, which has already launched in China. If that turns out to be accurate, the specifications would line up with that model.
One detail does not match cleanly. The Redmi Note 9 4G carries a 48MP triple rear camera, while the teaser points to a quad-camera setup on the Redmi 9 Power. So it is not yet clear that the two phones are one and the same.
