Summary
$499 Redmi Note 17 Pro Max goes on sale across Europe, Australia and Latin America with a 9,210mAh silicon-carbon battery that Xiaomi says lasts up to three days or 37 hours of video.
16% silicon content lets Xiaomi fit that battery into a handset roughly iPhone 17 Pro Max-sized, yet 8 grams lighter and slightly thinner; some markets get an even larger 10,000mAh version.
100W wired charging refills the phone in a little over an hour, and Xiaomi says the battery should still hold 80% capacity after 1,600 cycles, or about six years.
The rest of the package is more midrange: a Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 chip, up to 12GB RAM, 256GB storage, a 6.83-inch OLED display, IP69K protection and a 50-megapixel main camera.
The model tops a four-phone Redmi Note 17 lineup built around oversized batteries, with even the $249 4G Note 17 carrying a 7,700mAh cell.
