The phone also touts an X-shaped pattern at the back that shimmers against the light, a fingerprint sensor, and quad cameras housed in a rectangular module.

As for the cameras, the In Note 1 sports quad cameras headlined by a 48MP primary sensor at the back. This is paired with a 5MP wide-angle lens and a couple of 2MP cameras. At the front, it employs a 16MP wide-angle snapper with 78-degree FoV for selfies and video chats.
The Redmi Note 9 has a similar quad-camera setup at the back but with an 8MP wide-angle lens instead of 5MP. The front camera of the phone is a 13MP snapper as opposed to the 16MP camera on the Micromax In Note 1.

The Redmi phone also has an Infrared sensor that lets you control TV, AC, and other remote control appliances.
MY VERDICT:-
Both the phones have identical specifications but the Redmi Note 9 has a very slight edge over the In Note 1 in the storage department. Otherwise, the new device by Micromax is definitely here to disrupt the market because it provides a better value at a less price than the Redmi Note 9.
SO WINNER IS MICROMAX IN NOTE 1.
