The REDMI 15 5G features a 6.9-inch FHD+ LCD screen with a 144Hz adaptive refresh rate and up to 288Hz touch sampling. Xiaomi says this is the largest display in the segment. It also supports TÜV Rheinland certifications for low blue light, flicker-free viewing, and circadian-friendly lighting.
The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 processor paired with Adreno 619 GPU. It comes with 6GB or 8GB RAM, along with up to 8GB virtual RAM. Storage options go up to 256GB, and you can also expand it with a microSD card up to 1TB.
On the software side, the REDMI 15 5G runs Android 15 with HyperOS 2. Xiaomi has promised 2 years of OS updates and 4 years of security updates.
