Redmi Note 15 Pro+ Coming Soon in Nepal: Can It Redeem the Pro+ Lineup?

The Redmi Note series from Xiaomi has long been a favorite in the budget and mid-range smartphone market. And now, ready to dominate 2026, Xiaomi’s latest lineup, Redmi Note 15, Note 15 Pro, and the flagship of the family, the Note 15 Pro+, is almost here. Today, we’re diving into the Redmi Note 15 Pro+.

As the most premium model in the Note 15 lineup, the Note 15 Pro+ packs the most power, features, and performance. But the big question is: does it really justify its price tag? Well, let’s find out.

What is the price of the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ in Nepal?

The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ price in Nepal could start from Rs. 49,999 (8/256GB) and could go up to Rs. 54,999 (12/256GB). At the time of writing, the phone has only launched in select markets and hasn’t made its global debut yet, so the expected pricing could differ significantly from the final retail price.

The global launch is expected toward the end of December, while the Nepali market could see the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ arrive sometime between mid to late January.

The Pro+ lineup in the Redmi Note series has historically offered the best performance and value in its segment. In fact, last year we even ranked the Redmi Note 13 Pro+ as the best mid-range phone of 2024. Naturally, I had similar hopes for the Note 14 Pro+.

But as the year went on, things didn’t go quite as planned. The Nothing Phone (3a) took the lead in camera performance, while phones like the Infinix GT 30 and OnePlus Nord CE 5 outperformed it in raw power and overall performance.

So now the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ has some serious expectations to live up to. It needs meaningful upgrades over the 14 Pro+ if it wants to reclaim the top spot in the mid-range game.

But does it deliver? Let’s dive in and find out.

Redmi Note 15 Pro+ Overview

Looks-wise, Xiaomi has made the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ almost identical to its predecessor, the Note 14 Pro+, especially with that same square camera module. The only, and arguably the biggest, design shift is the removal of curves.

Now, it’s not that the phone has gone completely flat. There’s still a very subtle curve on both the front and the back, but the frame itself is fully flat this time around. And yes, Redmi is also talking up the IP68/IP69K rating, which is a solid durability upgrade.

Up front, the display sees a noticeable improvement. Compared to last year, the Note 15 Pro+ gets a 0.16-inch bump, bringing the screen size to a massive 6.83 inches. This firmly places it in big-phone territory.

Initially, the larger panel raised concerns about pixel density, but Redmi has managed to maintain a sharp 447 PPI, which is essentially the same as last year. This also means the resolution has increased slightly, while still staying within that familiar 1.5K resolution bracket.

On top of that, all Redmi Note 15 series phones, including the Pro+, get brightness and eye-care upgrades. Peak brightness now goes up to 3,200 nits, and PWM dimming has been improved to 3840Hz, which should help reduce eye strain during low-light usage.

Under the hood, the processor moves up a generation, from the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 to the newer 7s Gen 4. However, the performance jump doesn’t seem all that significant.

In terms of memory and storage, Redmi seems to be sticking to the same formula as before with 8GB or 12GB RAM options paired with 256GB or 512GB of UFS 2.2 storage. This is a bit of a letdown, considering competitors like the Nord CE 5 offer UFS 3.1, while the Infinix GT 30 Pro goes all the way up to UFS 4.0.

Camera-wise, the Note 15 Pro+ follows the rest of the Note 15 series. The macro lens is gone, leaving a 200MP main camera paired with an 8MP ultrawide sensor. Once again, the 50MP telephoto lens found on the Chinese variant is missing here, which is disappointing.

On the bright side, the front camera gets an upgrade to a 32MP selfie sensor. It’s also technically a larger sensor, so it should capture more light and deliver improved image quality.

Finally, the battery sees a massive upgrade. Capacity jumps from 5,110mAh to a huge 6,500mAh Si/C battery. Charging speed, however, takes a slight hit, dropping from 120W to 100W. While 100W is still well ahead of what most rivals offer in this segment, keeping the faster charging would’ve made more sense to quickly top up such a large battery.

The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ brings a handful of iterative upgrades over its predecessor. However, they don’t feel substantial enough to truly outshine the competition in its price segment.

That said, this is not a bad phone by any means. The processor is perfectly decent for everyday use, and the battery and charging combination are genuinely impressive at this price.

The problem isn’t what the Note 15 Pro+ does wrong, but rather what others do better. There are competing phones that offer stronger performance, better camera output, and a more polished software experience, all while being priced right alongside, or sometimes even below

In short, the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ is a solid all-rounder, but in a segment packed with aggressive competition, being “solid” may no longer be enough.
