The wait is over! The very first laptop by Xiaomi officially enters the Philippine market with the release of the much-anticipated RedmiBook 15.

Dedicated to bringing consumers competitive performance in the laptop category for both software and hardware, the RedmiBok 15 comes in two (02) variants: one that is powered by an 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i3-1115G4 processor; and another one that runs on an 11th Generation Intel® Core™ i5-11300H processor. Both laptops have 8GB DDR4 RAM (up to 3,200MHz) along with Intel® UHD Graphics in the i3 model, and Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics in the i5 model to provide more than enough high-speed memory for fluid operation, ideal for remote working and online learning.

In addition, the i5 variant sports a 512GB SSD internal storage with an NVMe PCIe interface built for ultra-fast data transfers, whether onto a cloud system or to a personal backup drive, making backing up data easier than ever.

Presented in its stylish slim Charcoal Gray design, the RedmiBook 15 has a 15.6-inch panel with a 1920 x 1080p FHD anti-glare display that supports DC Dimming for flicker-free operations even at low brightness levels.

The laptop runs on Microsoft Windows 11 Home with a lifetime OTA of software updates. Its spacious 126 mm by 82.6 mm touchpad is supported by Microsoft PTP for an accurate touch feel. The device promises around 10 hours of working time, thanks to 46Whr battery capacity while striving to be as portable as possible. The RedmiBook 15 switches easily between Silent and Balance operational modes, which is smartly accessible through the Fn+K combination key.

For connectivity, the RedmiBook 15 include dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth accessibility, as well as multiple I/O ports, including USB 3.0, HDMI 1.4, a Realtek RTS5176 Card Reader, and an audio jack. Onboard the device are 2W stereo speakers with DTS tuning for video calls and a built-in HD 720p camera that will make users look and sound great during online meetings.
