Like many phones launched this year, the Redmi Note 17 Pro is a victim of the ongoing memory chip crisis, so it doesn’t get the sub-Rs 30,000 pricing potential buyers might have hoped for. Still, I think it makes more sense than its Pro Max sibling priced at Rs 50,000.

Though a bit basic in terms of performance, the Redmi Note 17 Pro 5G provides a durable and reliable daily workhorse, highlighted by its solid build quality and excellent battery life. Its Snapdragon 6s Gen 4 processor handles everyday tasks competently and can accommodate some gaming, although users looking for stronger graphics performance may find its capabilities limiting. The biggest concern is the base 6 GB+128 GB configuration.

The Redmi Note 17 Pro has a pretty clear identity. It’s built around a genuinely great display and a battery that just won’t quit, with everything else tuned to be good enough rather than exceptional. For all these reasons, we rate it 4/5. If you’d rather have the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chip and don’t mind spending more, the Pro Max starts at Rs 49,999.

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 17 Pro is a tough phone that can handle water, dust, and drops. The phone can survive being underwater, high-pressure water spray, and falls from up to 3 meters. It has a big 6.83 inch AMOLED screen with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate and a very bright display (3,500 nits), so you can see it clearly even in sunlight.

From our initial hands-on experience, the 9,000 mAh battery is undoubtedly the best feature on the phone, followed by its strong durability factor, while other perks such as a 12-bit 1.5K AMOLED display, high brightness, and HyperOS 3 make the overall package more compelling.
