Realme 9 5G SE Review: Gaming monster on a budget
More often than not, consumers opting for an affordable smartphone will know that no matter which smartphone they pick, the features will always be a notch below the flagship models. And it makes sense. A smartphone selling in the sub-Rs. 20,000 category cannot have the same features as the one selling for Rs. 30,000. But with the Realme 9 5G SE, the company seems to be breaking these rules and it has packed hardware in this affordable range smartphone which were previously unimaginable.

Or, if we told you that you could get a smartphone with the Snapdragon 778G SoC in the same price point, you’d have all the reasons in the world to raise an inquisitive eyebrow.
