It is a revised version of the Redmi Note 17 Pro for the Chinese market, with a larger battery and a different memory ladder from the global model. It is listed as Available. The expected price in Pakistan starts at Rs. 66,999, and PTA approval has not yet been confirmed.
Design and Display
The phone measures 163.5 x 78.3 x 8.5 mm and weighs 226 g, with dual Nano-SIM and an IP68/IP69K rating. Xiaomi rates its water resistance up to 2 metres for 72 hours, and the body is drop resistant up to 3 metres. The 6.83-inch AMOLED display runs at 120Hz with a 1280×2772 resolution, a 19.5:9 ratio and about 447 pixels per inch, with 68 billion colours, 3840Hz PWM dimming and a 3500 nits peak brightness. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 covers the screen, backed by SGS and CQC five-star drop-resistance certifications and a TÜV SÜD 72-hour waterproof certification. An under-display optical fingerprint reader sits below the screen. Colours are Black, Satin Orange (Sand Orange) and Green (Energetic Green).
Performance and Battery
Android 16 with HyperOS 3 runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6s Gen 4, a 4 nm chip with four 2.4 GHz Cortex-A78 cores and four 1.8 GHz Cortex-A55 cores plus an Adreno GPU. Memory is 6 GB or 8 GB of RAM with 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage or 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, and there is no card slot. The 9,000 mAh Xiaomi Jinshajiang silicon-carbon lithium-ion battery charges at 67W wired with PD3.0 and supports 22.5W reverse wired charging.
Cameras and Connectivity
The rear camera pairs a 50 MP f/1.8 26mm wide lens with a 1/2.76-inch sensor, 0.64µm pixels and PDAF with an auxiliary lens. There is no optical image stabilisation and no ultrawide lens on this model, so neither is claimed here. LED flash, HDR and panorama are included, with video at 1080p and 30 frames per second. The front camera is an 8 MP wide unit with the same 1080p video. Connectivity covers GSM, HSPA, LTE and 5G with dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, Wi-Fi Direct, Bluetooth 5.1, GPS with GALILEO, GLONASS, QZSS and BDS, NFC, USB Type-C 2.0 with OTG and an infrared blaster. There is no 3.5 mm headphone jack, while stereo speakers are fitted. PTA approval has not yet been confirmed.
Price in Pakistan
The expected prices below come from the official China prices of CNY 1,599, CNY 1,599 and CNY 1,699 converted at 41.50 and rounded up to 999. They are not official Pakistan launch prices and may change before any local release.
| VARIANT | PRICE IN PAKISTAN | STATUS |
|---|---|---|
| 6GB 256GB | Rs. 66,999 | Expected |
| 8GB 128GB | Rs. 66,999 | Expected |
| 8GB 256GB | Rs. 70,999 | Expected |
Final Verdict: A Big-Battery Refresh at a Sharp Expected Price
The Refresh pairs a 9,000 mAh battery with 67W charging, a tough IP68/IP69K body and a bright 120Hz AMOLED screen at an expected Rs. 66,999. Against that stand the missing headphone jack, the lack of a card slot, no optical image stabilisation and an auxiliary second lens in place of an ultrawide. Buyers should also note this is the China Refresh, not the global Note 17 Pro: the battery is larger, the memory ladder adds 6 GB and drops 12 GB and 512 GB, and the colours add Green while dropping Sky Blue and Purple. Wait for an official Pakistan price and PTA confirmation before buying.
