Xiaomi looks like it’s gearing up to refresh its budget smartphone lineup, and a new leak shared by YtechB just gave us one of the best looks yet at the upcoming REDMI 17 4G. The camera island looks refreshed. It’s noticeably wider than on the REDMI 15 4G and now features a light ring instead of one of the camera cutouts. Don’t worry though, this isn’t a downgrade.

The predecessor only had two rear cameras (a main sensor + auxiliary lens) to begin with. The phone itself comes in some nice colors: Deep Blue, Black, Oak Green, and possibly Lotus Purple. In terms of size, it measures 170.12 x 78.42 x 8.8 mm and weighs around 232 grams.

On the front, we’re looking at a 6.9-inch LCD with HD+ resolution (1600 x 720) and a 120Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it’s expected to run on MediaTek’s Helio G91 Ultra processor, paired with HyperOS 3.0 based on Android 16. For comparison, the REDMI 15 4G is powered by the Snapdragon 685.

Take a look at the test results below for an idea of the performance and power efficiency differences. The Helio G91 and G91 Ultra are functionally the same processor, with only minor tweaks such as upgraded ISP support for higher-resolution cameras. Memory and storage options look typical for the segment: 4GB or 6GB of RAM with 128GB or 256GB of storage.

Around the back there’s a 50MP main camera plus an auxiliary sensor, while the front gets an 8MP selfie camera. But the real standout here is the battery. The REDMI 17 4G is rumored to pack a massive 7,500mAh cell, along with 45W fast charging.

This is an upgrade over the 7000mAh battery and 33W charging of the predecessor. The large battery could position the successor as a serious contender for anyone who hates reaching for the charger during the day. Pricing-wise, leaks point to a starting price of around €250 for the 4GB + 128GB version, with the 256GB model expected to land near €280.

That said pricing will likely vary by region and market conditions. Don’t miss a thing! Join our Telegram community for instant updates and grab our free daily newsletter for the best tech stories!
