The Smart 9 X6532, a budget-friendly smartphone boasting a 120Hz refresh rate display and a MediaTek Helio G81 processor, promises a lot for its price point. After spending several weeks testing this device, I’m ready to share my thoughts on its strengths and weaknesses.

The Smart 9 X6532 packs a surprising punch for a budget phone. The 6.7-inch IPS LCD screen, despite its 720×1600 resolution, is surprisingly vibrant and the 120Hz refresh rate makes scrolling and gaming noticeably smoother than on lower-refresh-rate devices. The dual SIM capability and expandable storage up to 2TB are also welcome additions. The sleek Metallic Black design feels surprisingly premium for its price. The inclusion of a screen protector and cover in the box is a thoughtful touch. The camera system consists of an 8MP main lens and an 8-11.9MP secondary lens – capable of 1080p video recording.

The MediaTek Helio G81 processor handles everyday tasks with ease. I experienced minimal lag while browsing, using social media apps, and even playing some lighter games. However, demanding games did show some performance limitations, with occasional frame drops. The 3GB of RAM is adequate for basic usage but might feel a bit constrained for power users. The 5000mAh battery easily lasted a full day on moderate usage, and even with heavy use, I consistently got through a full day before needing to charge. The charging time using the Type-C port is acceptable but could be faster.

The dual speakers, although advertised as offering 300% ultra volume, delivered decent sound but lacked the depth and richness of higher-end audio systems. The audio through the Type-C port was acceptable for headphones. Overall, the Smart 9 X6532’s performance is impressive considering its price, but those expecting flagship-level speed should manage their expectations.

Pros:

• Smooth 120Hz display
• Long-lasting 5000mAh battery
• Dual SIM functionality
• Expandable storage up to 2TB
• Sleek and attractive design
• Good value for money

Cons:

• Limited RAM might cause occasional lag under heavy load
• Average camera performance
• Sound quality could be improved

The Smart 9 X6532 is a compelling option for budget-conscious consumers who prioritize a smooth display, long battery life, and expandable storage. While it has limitations in terms of RAM and camera performance, it’s hard to deny the value it offers. If you’re looking for a reliable everyday phone without breaking the bank, the Smart 9 X6532 is a strong contender. I would recommend it to anyone seeking an affordable device with a surprisingly smooth and responsive user experience.
