- A fluid 120Hz AdaptiveSync refresh rate
- 100% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage
- Up to 1800 nits peak brightness
- TÜV Rheinland Eye Care certifications for reduced eye strain
Complementing the display are 200% volume boost speakers and HydroTouch 2.0, which ensures precise screen responsiveness even with wet hands. Everyday protection is provided by Corning Gorilla Glass 7i and an IP65 rating for dust and splash resistance.
Efficient Performance, AI Cameras, and Long-Term Support
Powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 processor built on an advanced 4nm architecture, the REDMI Note 17 5G delivers high-efficiency everyday performance. It offers up to 16GB RAM (via memory extension), up to 2TB expandable storage, a 10,416mm² graphite cooling system, and Xiaomi’s Long-Term Fluency Engine for up to 48 months of lag-free operation.
