Early Verdict

At this price, the Redmi 15C 5G murders the competition:

  • Beats Realme C71/C73, Moto G45, Lava Blaze Duo on display smoothness & software
  • Crushes Poco M7, Infinix Hot 50 on battery life & updates
  • Only real rival = Samsung Galaxy M16 5G (but that costs ₹2–3k more)

If you’re looking for a no-nonsense 5G phone for parents, secondary device, or just pure value – stop everything and bookmark the December 10 sale.

Redmi didn’t just launch a budget phone… they launched the new benchmark for 2026’s entry-level 5G segment.
