Introduction
The new Redmi Note 15 series has arrived, and we are reviewing them individually. Today, we focus on the Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G. While it may not be the top model in the lineup, it certainly holds its own as a balanced option.
Xiaomi has opted for a conservative approach with this release. Major changes to a successful series like the Redmi Note can be risky.
That said, there are notable updates from last year’s Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G. The screen size has increased from 6.67 inches to 6.83 inches. Although the overall dimensions have changed slightly, the Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G is thinner than its predecessor. It weighs 210 grams, which remains manageable. This year’s design is more modern, featuring a flat display and a flat back. The uniform middle frame enhances the aesthetic.
