NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 is the most complete choice for camera, performance, and durability: it combines 12 GB of RAM, optical stabilization, and an ultrawide camera. Redmi Note 17 suits buyers who prioritize a large battery and bigger display; Redmi Note 15 4G is the buy only if it costs less.

Redmi Note 17 has the largest display at 6.99 inches versus 6.77 inches, but both Note 15 models use AMOLED, 3,200 nits, and 388 ppi, against OLED, 1,800 nits, and 375 ppi on the 17. For performance, Note 15 combines Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, 12 GB, and 512 GB; the 15 4G uses Helio G100 and the 17 uses Snapdragon 4 Gen 4, both with 8 GB, while the 17 has 256 GB.

The camera again favors Note 15: 108 MP, a 1/1.67-inch sensor, 4K video, optical stabilization, and an ultrawide camera, versus 108 MP without stabilization or ultrawide on the 15 4G and 50 MP without either camera on the 17. Note 17 answers with 8,000 mAh and 45 W, versus 5,520 mAh and 45 W on Note 15 and 6,000 mAh and 33 W on the 15 4G; the 15 4G reaches 55 hours per cycle, versus 51 hours for Note 15. The 17 adds Android 16 and direct updates, while the Note 15 models offer 5G and Google Services.
