Redmi 15C will be a cheap phone with a large battery. It will come in nice color variants

Xiaomi is preparing to launch the cheap Redmi 15C model in the near future, which will be the successor to last year’s budget model 14C. But as is often the case, it failed to keep all the details secret. Not only official-looking images of the phone in all color variants have appeared online, but also information about prices and key specifications. It looks like it will be an interesting choice for those who are primarily looking for long battery life at a low price.

Huge battery in a cheap phone

According to leaked information, the main attraction of the new Redmi 15C will be the battery with a capacity of 6,000 mAh, a value that even much more expensive phones often do not offer. The battery can be charged using 33W charging, which is a decent value for this price category. The phone should feature a 6.9-inch IPS LCD display with HD+ resolution and a classic teardrop notch for the selfie camera.

In terms of performance, it will be a basic model with a MediaTek processor from the Helio series, which will only offer 4G connectivity. Two memory variants will be available – 4 GB RAM + 128 GB storage and 4 GB RAM + 256 GB storage. The phone should run on Android 15 with the HyperOS 2 overlay.

New design and color variants

Compared to its predecessor, there has been a significant design change. While the Redmi 14C had a circular camera module, the new model opted for a square photo module similar to the one we know from the Redmi Note 14 series. It will house two cameras.

Leaked renders show that the Redmi 15C will be available in four color options: Moonlight Blue (modrá), Twilight Orange (oranžová), Midnight Black (černá), and Mint Green (zelená/tyrkysová). Interestingly, the model designation is written in a handwritten style on the back of the phone.

Price and availability

Thanks to a prematurely published page on an Italian e-shop, we also know the European prices. The basic variant with 4 GB RAM and 128 GB storage will cost 133.90 euros (approximately 3,300 Kč), while the upgraded version with 256 GB storage will cost 154.90 euros (about 3,800 Kč). In some countries, the phone might also appear under the Poco C85 brand with the same or only slightly modified specifications.

According to certification documents, the phone could be launched as early as this month, although Xiaomi sometimes launches its products later than the model numbers suggest. In any case, it seems the official premiere is not far off.
