Visually, the Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G differs significantly from its predecessor. The display is no longer stretched across the corners but is now straight and the phone has a metal frame all the way around.
The screen-to-body ratio has now been improved to 90% and clearly goes beyond the limits of this segment. All that remains is a very narrow black border around the screen, which is barely noticeable.
Other things on the housing are also unusual for the price range. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 is currently one of the best protective glasses for the screen and is installed in the Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G.
Xiaomi has also put a lot of thought into durability and has equipped its phone with multi-stage shock absorption. However, you can twist the phone a little with your bare hands and cause it to creak, which reduces the impression of quality.
The Xiaomi phone is also protected against water and dust in accordance with IP68 standards, so it can be taken for a swim in shallow water. A special function then uses rapid vibrations to eject water and dust from the speakers.
The phone, whose matte back is available in Black, Light blue, and Titanium colors, is somewhat heavier than comparable phones but also comes with a more powerful battery.
