Since we are looking at a straight rebrand, the specs are the same. You are looking at a 6.9-inch, FHD+ LCD with a 144Hz refresh rate and display bezels on the bigger side of things. The phone is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chipset and will come with the company&#8217;s HyperOS 2 installed. Xiaomi promises two years of OS updates and four years of security updates.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"802\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1755981550_593_gsmarena_003.jpg\" alt=\"Xiaomi Redmi 15R launches in China as a rebranded Redmi 15\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Xiaomi put a large 7,000 mAh battery on board with 33W charging (and a charger in the box in most regions), plus 18W reverse wired charging capabilities. Xiaomi claims this is the only silicon-carbon battery in the segment and that it retains 80% of its life even after 4+ years of use.<\/p>\n<p>Other features include a 50MP camera at the back, IP64 ingress protection, and Dolby-certified audio. We will have more for you on the feature and specs front in the full review.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, here is the pricing for the Chinese Redmi 15R: 8GB\/256GB for CNY 1,499 (~$210), 12GB\/256GB for CNY 1,899 (~$265), and 12GB\/512GB for CNY 2,199 (~$305). Pretty affordable overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article-source\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TechnicalShaan\/status\/1958996702108819966\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Redmi 15 5G is the latest addition to the company&#8217;s budget-oriented number family.
