Redmi Note 17 review: OLED screen and 8,000 mAh battery for Rs 27,999

The Redmi Note 17 offers a large OLED display and an 8,000 mAh silicon-carbon battery, but weak cameras, a Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 chip and only 128 GB of storage make its Rs 27,999 price hard to justify. It lasted 19 hours 26 minutes in PCMark and takes about 1 hour 54 minutes to charge with the bundled 45 W adapter.

• 8,000 mAh battery: up to two days of use, 19h 26m in PCMark
• Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 chip and 128 GB storage; microSD shares the SIM slot
• Single usable 12 MP camera with poor low-light and dynamic range
• Priced at Rs 27,999 for 6/128 GB, IP rating dropped from IP66 to IP65
