Redmi has also changed the design, opting for a more minimalist look with vertically-aligned camera sensors. The rear panels also show cloud patterns on one and shooting stars on the other.
Redmi Note 17 series: what to expect
According to leaks, the Redmi Note 17 is tipped to feature a 6.83-inch flat 1.5K AMOLED display. It could be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 chipset, which should comfortably handle everyday tasks such as social media, streaming, multitasking, and casual gaming. It would also be an upgrade over the Redmi Note 15’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset, suggesting better overall performance.
The handset is teased to house a large-capacity battery with 67W wired fast charging support. For context, the Redmi Note 15 in China houses a 5,800mAh battery, so anything bigger would be a major upgrade for the Redmi Note 17, at least in terms of battery endurance. The Redmi Note 17 is also expected to house a 50MP primary sensor and ship with Android 16-based HyperOS 3.1 out of the box.
As for the Redmi Note 17 Pro, it could stand out with a massive 10,000mAh battery. This would make it one of the largest capacities in the segment, and for a Redmi Note series smartphone as well. More rumoured specs for the Note 17 Pro include a 50MP primary camera, a 32MP selfie snapper, and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chipset. Up front, it will most likely house a 1.5K flat OLED display.
Judging from what we know so far, the Redmi Note 17 series is expected to focus on battery endurance this time. Traditionally, the Note series has relied on offering a well-rounded experience. The ongoing trend recently has been battery capacities, and it looks like Redmi is also capitalising on it. So, anyone looking forward to an upcoming Redmi phone for battery endurance could find the Redmi Note 17 series worth waiting for. If you currently own a Redmi Note 15, the upgrade to the Note 17 Pro’s 10,000mAh battery could be significant, especially for power users.
