Coming in with a large 6.8 inches sized 1080p+ LCD display, it doesn’t boast of a high refresh rate, and it’s not like we’re expecting one from a smartphone company that tries to give you the most spec and features at half the prices of their more expensive counterparts.

And coming to the performance aspect of things, the phone runs on a MediaTek Helio G80 chipset with 4 or 8GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage.

This is not the most rugged setup by any means, but the Helio G80 chipset used here has been tested on many occasions on different smartphones, and it has proven itself to be a force to reckon with in the mobile smartphone industry.

Moving further, the Umidigi A11 Pro Max comes with a 48MP main camera on the rear which is accompanied by a 16MP ultrawide, and a 2MP macro cam, while sitting on the front is a 24MP front-facing cam.

The phone comes with Stock Android 11 version out of the box, so, for people who love their smartphone UI neat without any third-party interference, this is the smartphone for you.

And finally, keeping the lights on is a 5150 mAh battery with 10W charging.

So, in conclusion, if you want the best Umidigi phone that money can afford right now, then for just about ₦83,000, you get a huge Full HD+ display, a top-performing MediaTek chipset, premium glass build, Stock Android, a decent set of cameras, and a pretty large battery, making it the overall best Umidigi phone anyone can get in 2022.

The Umidigi A9 Pro is split into two devices, the regular A9 Pro, and the 2021-enhanced variant with more RAM (8GB) and Android 11 version out of the box, where the original A9 Pro ships with Android 10.

Aside from these two differences, the two A9 Pro phones are generally the same in and out.

So, on here, you get a very compact 6.3 inches sized 1080p+ LCD display, and like the A11 Pro Max, you don’t get high refresh rate, not even on the newly enhanced 2021 version.

And moving away from the display, you get a 48MP main camera sensor with a 16MP ultrawide, a 5MP macro cam, and a second 5MP depth sensor, while on the front sits a 24MP front-facing cam.

And like the A11 Pro Max, the A9 Pro has a glass build with a metal frame holding both sides together, once again, giving off that premium vibe you usually don’t get to see on other smartphone brands within the same price range.

You get a MediaTek Helio P60 processor with 4 or 6GB of RAM on the original A9 Pro, and 8GB on the 2021-enhanced version.

And finally, in terms of battery, the phone is fitted with a 4150 mAh capacity battery with 10W charging.

So, as you can see, the Umidigi A9 Pro is very related to the A11 Pro Max, albeit with a more compact display, a less powerful but still very decent and fast MediaTek processor, same camera setup, a smaller battery, etc.

So, if the A11 Pro Max was too expensive for you to afford, then about half its starting price, the A9 Pro to this day still remains one of the best Umidigi phones anyone can buy in 2022.

Like the A9 Pro, it is split into two different phones, the original A11, and an even cheaper alternative, the A11s.

Both of them are basically the same phones in and out, but while the A11 runs ahead with a MediaTek Helio G25 processor, the A11s follows closely behind with a slightly less power Unisoc T310 chipset.

Another confusing difference is that the two phones have two RAM and storage options, so while the regular A11 lets you choose between 3GB of RAM with 64GB storage or 4GB of RAM with 128GB storage, the A11s lets you choose between 4GB of RAM and 32 or 64GB storage options.

They come with a 6.53 inches 720p LCD display, and once again, glass builds with metal frames in between.

You get a 16MP main camera with an 8MP ultrawide, a 5MP macro camera, and an 8MP front-facing cam.

Both phones ship with Stock Android 11 out of the box, and they’re both rocking a 4150 mAh battery with 10W charging.

It ships with Stock Android 11 out of the box, and has a 5150 mAh capacity battery to boot.
