UTF-8 urls must be uppercase or lowercase

SEO sites suggest urls must be in lowercase for some reason, but my problem is with utf-8 urls can have some numbers and characters together, for example:

%D9%F6

Which type is standard and better? This:

%D9%F6

Or this:

%d9%f6

I used lowercase, but when I copied the url and pasted it in the address bar, it became uppercase automatically, this case 301 redirect in my php code.

Because encoded UTF8 should, by w3c and web standards, stay uppercase. In google point of view it's the same, they put their encoded UTF8 word in uppercase.

Best standard is %D9%F6 and you should stick to it ! Don't try lower or you should experience some duplicate page and for your seo it's really bad.
