Comparisons Featuring Vodafone Smart N9
Short Review
- The Vodafone Smart N9 features a compact design with dimensions of 147.1 x 68.8 x 8.7 mm and a weight of 145g, available in Silver Aluminium and Black Titanium.
- Its 5.5-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 293 ppi, though it lacks HDR support.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6739WA chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and 2GB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
- The rear camera is a 13 MP unit with autofocus, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while an 8 MP front camera is available for selfies.
- The battery capacity is 2900mAh, with no fast charging or wireless charging options.
- Running on Android 8.1 (Oreo), the software experience is basic and lacks updates beyond its release.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0, and NFC, but it does not support 5G.
- The device uses a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer.
- Overall, the Vodafone Smart N9 offers essential features but may not meet the demands of users seeking high performance or advanced capabilities.
