Smartphones with a large battery, plenty of storage and a high-resolution camera are becoming increasingly important to many users. Those who use their device intensively on a daily basis, store lots of photos or watch videos on the go, are paying particular attention to battery life, display quality and sufficient storage space to last for several years.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G is currently available on Amazon for £299, instead of the listed RRP of £379. This means the price is 21% lower and this gets you the impressive 512GB model in Titanium or Glacier Blue colours.

The 256GB model is slightly cheaper at £279, but it’s worth paying the extra £20 for the additional storage.

The Redmi Note 15 Pro is an Amazon Choice product, but be quick as this limited-time deal ends on 22 June.

What the Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 Pro has to offer

Above all, the combination of a large battery and plenty of storage space makes the device attractive. Xiaomi has fitted a 6500mAh battery, which, according to the manufacturer, is designed for long battery life in everyday use. In our review, the Note 15 Pro reached 29% in 15 minutes and 53% in 30 minutes. That is a respectable result.

Charging is done at 45W via turbo charging. For users who are frequently on the move or use their smartphone intensively, this can be practical in everyday life, as recharging is required less often.

It also features 8GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. This makes the device primarily aimed at anyone who wants to store lots of apps, photos, videos or downloads directly on their smartphone. The specifications should also be appealing for extended use without running out of storage space quickly.

The camera features a 200Mp main sensor, complemented by an 8Mp ultra-wide-angle camera. According to test impressions, the main camera’s greatest strength lies particularly in capturing the finest details – such as delicate brushstrokes on a canvas or complex leaf structures. The high resolution can be particularly advantageous in daylight or for shots that are to be cropped later. However, a high megapixel count alone does not automatically mean better photos in every situation, such as in difficult lighting conditions.

It also features a 6.77-inch AMOLED display with Full HD resolution. According to the manufacturer, the panel achieves an impressive peak brightness of up to 3,200 nits, which makes content easier to read even in direct sunlight. For streaming, social media or navigation on the go, a bright display has become one of the most important features in everyday life for many users.

With IP65 certification, the smartphone is also protected against dust and splashes. Whilst this does not replace full water resistance, it offers additional protection in everyday use in the rain or when out and about.

Inside, it is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 processor. It also features Hyper OS as the operating system, a fingerprint sensor and support for 5G.

According to Amazon, the package includes a protective case, a USB cable and a SIM tool. Xiaomi also offers a two-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Why it’s a good deal

The Redmi Note 15 Pro is aimed primarily at anyone looking for plenty of storage, a large battery and a large display, without having to switch straight to significantly more expensive high-end models. The combination of 512GB of storage and 8GB of RAM, in particular, is rare at this price range.

The offer of £299 means it now sits in our budget phone price range and makes for a real bargain. Particularly in the market for large mid-range smartphones with AMOLED displays and generous storage, this represents a comparatively aggressive pricing strategy.

In the reviews, battery life, the display and storage capacity are frequently mentioned in a positive light.

We said “Despite an affordable price tag, the Redmi Note 15 Pro has a lot of strings to its bow. An impressive 200Mp camera, superb battery life and a bright, vivid display are the highlights, while the performance is more than up to scratch.”

The downsides include some bloatware pre-installed and the bulky camera module.
