Xiaomi Malaysia is gearing up to launch a new budget-friendly 5G smartphone — and it’s packing some serious battery power.
The company has officially teased the arrival of the Redmi 15 5G, a device that could shake up the mid-range segment thanks to a handful of key features already confirmed by Xiaomi over the weekend.
Redmi 15 5G: What We Know So Far
While the official launch date remains under wraps, Xiaomi has begun revealing some core specifications. Most notably, the Redmi 15 5G will feature a massive 7,000mAh battery, which the brand claims can comfortably deliver up to two days of usage on a single charge. This is a significant step up in battery life for the Redmi series and could appeal strongly to heavy users and mobile gamers.
The device will also sport a 6.9-inch Full HD+ display with a smooth 144Hz refresh rate, promising a fluid visual experience — ideal for gaming, media consumption, and everyday use. However, high refresh rates often demand more power, so real-world battery performance may vary depending on usage patterns.
Under the hood, the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chipset will power the device, paired with 8GB of physical RAM. Xiaomi is also advertising up to 16GB of RAM, but it’s worth noting that this figure includes virtual memory expansion via MIUI's RAM boost feature, not actual hardware.
Affordable 5G Powerhouse Likely Under RM1,000
Although pricing hasn’t been confirmed yet, based on the trend set by its predecessor, the Redmi 15 5G is expected to launch under RM1,000, making it a compelling option for budget-conscious users seeking a solid 5G smartphone with premium features.
Launch Imminent
There’s no confirmed release date just yet — Xiaomi Malaysia has simply stated that the Redmi 15 5G is “coming soon.” But with teasers already rolling out, the official launch is likely right around the corner.
Stay tuned for more details, including the full spec sheet and official pricing, as Xiaomi continues to unveil what could be one of the most value-packed devices in its Redmi lineup this year.
