Comparison review
Moto G Stylus is a little bit better than Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S, having a 79.7 score against 79. Both phones in this comparison review work with the same Android 11 OS (operating system), so you shouldn't perceive any difference regarding that. The Moto G Stylus construction is a little thicker but just a little lighter than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S, and both of them were released only a couple months apart.
The Moto G Stylus and Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S feature really similar displays, because although the Moto G Stylus has a bit worse 1080 x 2300 resolution and a bit smaller display, it also counts with a little bit better pixel number in each screen inch. Motorola Moto G Stylus features a much greater memory capacity for applications, games, photos and videos than Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S, and although they both have an external memory slot that supports a maximum of 512 GB, the Motorola Moto G Stylus also has 128 GB internal memory capacity.
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S has just a little better processing power than Moto G Stylus. They have 8 cpu cores and 4 GB of RAM. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S features superior battery duration than Moto G Stylus, because it has a 26 percent bigger battery capacity. The Moto G Stylus's camera is just as good as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S one, and although the Moto G Stylus has a bigger camera aperture for better low-light photography and videos, they both have the same 30 frames per second video frame rate, the same (4K) video quality, a same size back-facing camera sensor and the same resolution back camera.
Although Moto G Stylus is a better device, it is more expensive than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S. If you want to save some dollars, you can buy the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S, giving up a few specs and features, but you'll get the most out of your budget.
