Reviews for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 5G

Redmi Note 17 5G Review: Built Around a Battery, Not a Benchmark
Source: Yanko Design English
The Redmi Note 17 5G is easy to sum up with one number, but the battery is only the starting point. The weight, the flat and grippy frame, the case in the box, the efficient chip, and the self-adjusting refresh rate all follow from it.

73% Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 Review: Is This the Best Battery Phone Under ৳33,000?
Source: Know Your Mobile English
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 has a clear idea of what it's going to be. It's not a matter of power or high-end cameras. It's about providing you with a phone that lasts the whole day, looks good doing so and doesn't cost broke. The massive battery and large screen are the highlights, but the camera and absence of 5G are a bit of a letdown.

The difference in price between these two phones is $200. If that is a difference you can handle, the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max is a phone that is much easier to recommend. It offers so much better performance, not to mention a better display, and notably better camera performance.

REDMI Note 17 5G Review – Massive 8000mAh Battery Meets Massive AMOLED Screen
Source: Mobygyaan English
The REDMI Note 17 5G takes a different approach from performance-focused smartphones in the segment, prioritizing battery endurance, display quality, durability, and long-term everyday usability. Xiaomi has built the smartphone around an 8,000 mAh EV-Grade Silicon-Carbon battery, a large 120 Hz TrueColour AMOLED display, dependable Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 performance, and a feature-rich HyperOS 3 experience, rather than chasing benchmark numbers.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 5G hands-on review
Source: GSM Arena English
The Redmi Note 17 is a relatively basic phone. The big battery and large, high-resolution display make it ideal for gig workers and such, looking to use their phone all day for work, or for someone seeking a simple device as a secondary phone or for the elderly. That phone feels like it's in a different league altogether and isn't that much more expensive than the Redmi Note 17.

Based on our initial experience, the REDMI Note 17 5G appears to be a smartphone built around endurance, entertainment, and long-term usability rather than raw benchmark performance. The combination of the 8,000 mAh EV-Grade Silicon-Carbon Battery, large 6.99-inch TrueColour AMOLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass 7i protection, Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 performance, 45W fast charging, and HyperOS 3 with long software support creates a well-balanced package for users who prioritize battery life and everyday reliability.

Comment

Qualcomm Adreno 613: Graphics chip for smartphones and tablets, integrated in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC. Although it is the successor to the Adreno 619 in the SD 4 Gen 1, its performance is significantly lower in the entry-level class.

Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.


SD 4 Gen 4: An entry-level SoC with 8 Kryo cores (two ARM Cortex-A78-based cores running up to 2.3 GHz and 6 ARM Cortex-A55 cores running up to 2 GHz) and a 5G modem. It is manufactured using a 4nm process.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
