Five-Year Battery Guarantee
For the initial sales period, the company is packaging the device with a multi-year battery health program:
- Years 1–4: If the battery health metrics drop below 80% of original capacity, consumers qualify for a free replacement battery.

Display Specifications
The Note 17 Pro features what REDMI describes as its most advanced display panel on a Note series device to date.
The screen consists of a 1.5K resolution flat OLED panel manufactured with flagship-grade luminescent materials. It is capable of achieving a peak brightness of 3,500 nits under direct sunlight conditions (Super Sunlight Display).
For diminished ambient light environments, it integrates Xiaomi’s Green Mountain Eye Protection system, which allows the screen to scale down to a minimum output of 1 nit to mitigate eye strain.
