Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+
What does Jen say about the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+?
From a recommended retail price (RRP) of €499.90, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G is a light, powerful smartphone with a very good camera, a strong battery and all the important AI features. In low light and macro you have to make small compromises. For many people it is completely sufficient, without paying three times as much.
Pros
- 200 megapixel main camera with very good photos and 4K video
- Battery with 5,110 mAh lasts around two days
- 120 watt HyperCharge, full in about half an hour
- Very light at 205 g, faux leather back with good grip
- Bright AMOLED display with up to 3,000 nits and good speakers
Cons
- In low light the camera falls behind the Xiaomi 14 Ultra
- 2 megapixel macro camera only okay
- Zoom beyond 10x gets difficult, 30x at most
- Slightly slower than the Xiaomi 14 Ultra in direct comparison

Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 Pro+
What does Jen say about the Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 Pro+?
From an RRP of €499.90, the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ 5G offers a strong overall package: high-quality build, a 6,500 mAh battery and a very bright display. Wireless charging is missing, it still runs HyperOS 2 out of the box, and many apps are preinstalled.
Pros
- Hefty 6500 mAh silicon-carbon battery for extreme battery life
- 100-watt HyperCharge (0 to 100% in about 40 minutes)
- Outstanding robustness with SGS 5-star certification
- Bright 3200 nits AMOLED display with AI Wet Touch function
- Premium feel thanks to the aluminum frame and a faux leather option
Cons
- No wireless charging or reverse wireless charging
- Ships with HyperOS 2 instead of the current version 3
- Lots of preinstalled bloatware during initial setup
- Sound quality noticeably drops at the maximum 400% volume boost
- Front camera videos only possible in Full HD instead of 4K
