The Leagoo M9, is one of the best phones under 10k, in Kenya right now. The device, having been released in late 2017, has some mid range features, that really should be in devices that cost around 15K. Now, the Leagoo M9, out of the box, runs Android 7.0 Nougat. To add to that, you get dual sim support. One is micro sim, the other is Nano sim. When it comes to weight, the M9 is 165 grams, in addition to having a thickness of 8.5mm. Today, we’ll look at the Leagoo M9 Specifications Review and price in Kenya.

Display
The Leagoo M9, comes with a display size of 5.5 inches. This has the “new” aspect ratio, which is 18:9.
For the resolution, you get 1280 x 640 pixels. Using apps, watching movies and videos is vivid on the device.
Despite having a large display, the Leagoo smartphone is quite compact. The screen is an IPS one and also supports multi touch (5 fingers)
To further add to that, in 2018 and beyond, you should really be buying a mobile phone with an aspect ration of 18:9. This makes it easier to use apps, and reduces the bezels of the device. It therefore makes it sleek and modern.
Performance and Storage of the Leagoo M9
Speaking of performance, the Leagoo M9, comes with a quad core processor. In that, you get a clock speed of 1.3Ghz (which is great for performance and battery use).
To ensure you can run multiple apps at the same time, there is the 2GB RAM. With that, you won’t get lags, crashes and app relaunches. The good thing, Android 7.0 Nougat, is optimized for speed and performance. This is when compared to the previous Android OS from Google.
To handle games and graphic intensive apps, you get a Mali 400GPU. This translates to higher frame rates when using apps and gaming.
When it comes to the storage capacity, the Leagoo M9, features 16GB. Currently, most users will not easily fill this. If you rarely take photos, videos and install large applications, then this storage capacity, will probably be suitable for your needs. However, if you will install several large applications, take many photos and videos, you might consider upgrading the capacity using a memory card. The M9 support microSD card expansion, up to 32GB.
