Redmi 15C 5G edges closer to India launch; here’s how much it could cost

The Redmi 15C 5G seems ready to make its India debut, and the latest leak paints a picture that fans of big batteries and bigger screens might want to keep an eye on. After its global outing earlier this year, Xiaomi’s budget-focused 5G smartphone contender has surfaced again, this time with India-specific pricing and configurations that look noticeably friendlier than its international tag. Here’s everything that’s known about the upcoming Redmi 15C 5G.

Redmi 15C 5G: India pricing and expected features

Tipster Abhishek Yadav has shared the phone’s likely India roadmap, including three variants starting at a claimed Rs 11,500 for the 4GB+128GB model. The 6GB+128GB version is tipped at Rs 12,500, while the top-tier 8GB+128GB model could land around Rs 14,500. If accurate, these figures would position the Redmi 15C 5G among the more accessible 5G-capable smartphones in the country.

The leak also points to a familiar spec sheet. Much like the global model, the India variant is expected to run on the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 chipset and pack a chunky 6,000mAh battery. An HD+ display with a notch is tipped as well, keeping it aligned with its September global launch configuration.

Specs that match the global model

Globally, the Redmi 15C 5G features a 6.9-inch display at 720×1,600 resolution, pushing up to 120Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling. It ships with LPDDR4X RAM, expandable onboard storage, and a microSD slot that accommodates up to 1TB of extra room.

Photography is handled by a 50MP primary camera paired with a secondary sensor, while the front houses an 8MP selfie shooter. Other essentials include 33W wired charging, Bluetooth 5.4, Wi-Fi, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance.
