Xiaomi Redmi 15 Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
7.0/10
Verdict
The Redmi 15 impresses with its premium design, massive battery, and immersive entertainment experience, backed by optimised performance for everyday use. While it may lack raw processing power, the handset remains an ideal pick for users who prioritise media consumption and long-lasting endurance.
Pros
- Two-day battery life
- Premium design
- Big screen for bingeing content
Cons
- Thick bezels
- Phone seems unnecessarily large
- Low-light photography could be better
Phone or phablet?

Let's start with the elephant in the room, its size. The Redmi 15 packs a massive 6.9-inch display, easily one of the largest you'll find on a smartphone today outside of foldables. The bezels are on the thicker side and do feel a bit dated, but with a screen this big, they're not a deal-breaker. You get a FHD+ (2340 × 1080 pixels) LCD panel that supports 144Hz refresh rate and 700 nits of peak brightness. The refresh rate can be set at 60Hz or pushed all the way to 144Hz, with adaptive adjustment based on usage. The specs are fairly standard for this segment, but the panel is bright enough for everyday use. Even with peak brightness capped at 850 nits, outdoor visibility remains comfortable.

Two-day battery life
+
The Redmi 15 stands out for its massive 7,000mAh battery, which is the max you'll get under Rs 15,000. In our PCMark battery test, which gives you an idea about how long the phone can last under typical usage, the Redmi 15 lasted for 14 hours and 54 minutes. This is much higher than most of the phones in this price segment. Realistically, the phone's battery at 100 percent can go for around two days on typical usage. This includes taking calls, using WhatsApp, a bit of gaming, and watching videos as well. I didn't need to charge the phone during these two days. Even with extensive usage, you should easily get a full day's backup.

Reliable performance

The Redmi 15 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3, a year-old chipset built on the 6nm process. In comparison, rivals like the Vivo T4x use the more efficient 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 7300, and the difference shows. The T4x, priced at Rs 13,999, leads comfortably in benchmarks with an AnTuTu score of 6,85,052, while the Redmi 15 manages 4,63,289.

Decent cameras at best

The Redmi 15 has a 50MP AI dual camera with an unspecified sensor, and an 8MP front camera. You'll typically find this camera setup in this segment, but there are a few options that offer an additional 2MP depth sensor, like the OPPO K13x, which is currently our top choice for cameras under Rs 15,000. We compared the Redmi 15's cameras with the OPPO K13x in different scenarios like daylight, portrait, selfies, and low-light.

Long-term software support for the win
+
The Redmi 15 runs HyperOS 2.0 with Android 15 out of the box. You also get 66 pre-installed apps, one of the highest on a phone. There are also 19 third-party apps. This can be particularly annoying, especially when setting up the device for the first time. Otherwise, the UI is smooth, and you get AI features like Circle to Search and Gemini Live. There are native AI features like 'Sky' that let you add different kinds of sky filters to your photos, but the results seem very dramatic, and the feature still requires some fine-tuning.
