Redmi 9 Prime
Xiaomi twitt on Redmi India's official Twitter handle hinting at the launch of the Redmi 9. The teaser highlights the words 'Prime' and 'Nine'. The 'Nine' seems to point towards the launch of the Redmi 9 and the 'Prime' could either mean the launch of a smartphone with the 'Prime' moniker or could just be a reference to the phone going on sale during Amazon's Prime Day sale. It could also be cheekily referencing both. The Xiaomi Redmi 9 Prime will be the first Prime branded Redmi phone in four years since the Redmi 4 Prime.
