7900 mAh
Huge 7900 mAh battery, 120Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 4 Gen 5, IP64 splash and dust resistance, expandable storage up to 2TB
HD+ resolution on a large 6.9-inch screen, heavy 232g body, secondary 2MP camera is basic, only 8MP selfie camera
The Redmi 17 5G stands out mainly for its massive 7900 mAh battery, making it a strong choice for users who prioritise endurance. The Snapdragon 4 Gen 5 should provide capable everyday performance, while the 120Hz display keeps scrolling smooth. However, the 6.9-inch panel is only HD+, which is a noticeable compromise at this price. The cameras are also fairly basic. At ₹23,999, it is best suited to heavy users who value battery life and practical features more than display sharpness or advanced photography.
