At the launch event, Wang Teng emphatically focused on the "durability" and "battery life" that users care most about.

In terms of design, the Note 15 Pro+ adopts an "equal-depth micro-curve" design, featuring a 6.67-inch 1.5K OLED screen that supports a 120Hz high refresh rate and 1920Hz high-frequency PWM dimming.

In terms of specifications, the Note 15 Pro+ is powered by Qualcomm's latest mid-range platform, the Snapdragon 7s Gen4, based on TSMC's 4nm process. While the extreme performance boost may not be significant, Xiaomi has extensive experience in tuning Qualcomm's ISP. Paired with a 50MP Light Hunter 800 main camera and a 50MP 2.5X periscope telephoto lens, it ensures a seamless daily experience while maintaining an excellent energy efficiency ratio.

The biggest highlight of this launch event is undoubtedly the evolution of the Note 15 Pro+'s protective capabilities.

The device is the first to feature Xiaomi's flagship Dragon Crystal Glass, which the official claims enhances drop resistance by ten times, capable of withstanding repeated drops from a height of 2 meters on granite surfaces. Additionally, it boasts dust and waterproof capabilities at IP66, IP68, IP69, and IP69K levels, meaning it can not only be submerged in water over a meter deep but also withstand high-temperature and high-pressure water jets.

Even more impressive, REDMI has also introduced a satellite messaging version, incorporating BeiDou short message functionality, enabling emergency communication in environments without terrestrial networks, thereby bringing flagship-level security to the mid-range market.

The REDMI Note 15 Pro, launched alongside, appears to be the "standard answer" for users prioritizing a balanced experience. Apart from the processor being swapped to Dimensity 7400-Ultra, the main camera downgraded to an IMX882 sensor, the absence of a periscope telephoto lens, and the wired charging specification reduced to 45W, it retains impressive protective capabilities, outperforming its peers.

Finally, let's examine the REDMI Note 15 standard version. In addition to the daily-sufficient Snapdragon 6 Gen3, the device features a dual-curved design, ultra-lightweight body, and practical configurations such as IP66, claiming to be the most powerful standard version in Note series history.

In terms of pricing, REDMI has upheld its exceptional cost-effectiveness:

REDMI Note 15 Pro+: During the first sale, the 12GB+256GB version is priced at 1899 yuan, the 12GB+512GB version at 2099 yuan, and the 16GB+512GB version at 2299 yuan. The satellite messaging version is priced at 2399 yuan, inclusive of various warranty benefits worth 925 yuan.

In summary, the Note 15 Pro series offers a meticulously balanced experience.

The Pro+ version倾斜预算 towards Dragon Crystal Glass, IP69 protection, and a 7000mAh battery, with Leitech's actual tests confirming its maximum reliability. The trade-off here is that the Snapdragon 7s Gen4 performance may not fully satisfy gamers, and the 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens seems somewhat lacking.

Finally, some purchasing advice: If you prioritize your phone's protection and battery life, the Pro+ is definitely worth considering. For users who prioritize a balanced experience and are budget-conscious, the standard Pro version is a more cost-effective choice. As for performance enthusiasts, perhaps REDMI's own Turbo series is your best bet.
