Igeekphone News reported on July 8th: The new generation of national mini powerhouse REDMI Note 17 series has officially been announced. It will be released on July 14th. The official statement reads, “We upgrade the specifications without lowering the performance, ensuring that you maintain the baseline of mid-range experience.”
The exterior pictures have also been released. It adopts a straight-edge design. The new rear cover has a rather attractive color scheme, featuring the designs of blue sky and white clouds as well as star trails in the night sky. It has been created in both blue and purple colors, and the frame is also in the same color scheme.
The rear camera module is somewhat similar to the Xiaomi 11 series from a few years ago. It features a rectangular Deco design with two cameras arranged vertically, and the overall design is quite recognizable.
Last week, the authorities announced that the Note series has sold a total of over 500 million units worldwide in 12 years. The new generation of the Note 17 series continues to enhance quality, screen, battery life and user experience.
It is worth noting that the previous generation was still named “Note 15”. This time, it has followed the Xiaomi digital series, skipping the 16 series and naming it “17” instead.
Based on the current reports, the Note 17 series includes at least two models. One of them is equipped with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 processor, featuring a 1.5K straight screen, a 9000mAh large battery, a 50-megapixel main camera, and supports water resistance.
The high-end version is upgraded to Dimensity 7500 processor, equipped with a 1.5K straight screen, a large battery of 10000mAh capacity, a 200 million-pixel main camera, and is waterproof.
Furthermore, the name “Little Golden Lion” refers to its shock-resistant feature. The Note series has always maintained this characteristic. The previous generation product, the Note 15 series, was equipped with the “Xiaomi Dragon Crystal Glass” of the same type as the Xiaomi digital flagship series.
The official claims that its shock resistance has been enhanced tenfold, enabling it to handle repeated drops from a height of 2 meters on a granite surface with ease. Additionally, this series boasts full-level waterproofing capabilities, capable of withstanding direct impacts from high-temperature and high-pressure water flows. Its durability is particularly outstanding within the same price range.
As an updated model, the Note 17 series will continue to maintain its excellent shock-resistance performance and top-level waterproofing capabilities, further carrying forward the excellent tradition of being a “little powerhouse” in terms of durability.
