Xiaomi 15T is also official featuring Dimensity 8400 Ultra

September 24, 2025

Xiaomi just dropped the 15T, the more affordable sibling to the 15T Pro. It keeps the massive display and decent cameras but makes some notable compromises to hit that lower price point. Now, let’s jump in this article, where I will discuss everything about the latest Xiaomi 15T, including its price in Nepal, specificatilions, and availability.

Xiaomi 15T Overview

Design and Build

The Xiaomi 15T looks almost identical to the 15T Pro. Same 6.83-inch display, same ultra-slim bezels that are 27% thinner than the previous generation, and the same boxy design. The key difference is the frame material – Xiaomi switched from aluminum to plastic to cut costs.

The plastic frame, however, will be obviously noticeable when you pick it up. Because phones with plastic builds don’t have that premium metal feel, but it does make the phone lighter at 194g compared to the Pro’s 210g. The plastic also stays cooler during gaming, so its not even all that bad. You still get IP68 water and dust resistance and Gorilla Glass 7i protection. The phone comes in Black, Gray, and Rose Gold finishes, all with metallic looks despite the plastic elements.

Display

The display remains a highlight. It’s a 6.83-inch OLED panel with 1.5K resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, and 3200 nits peak brightness. The screen supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision, with deep blacks and vibrant colors. The main difference from the Pro is the refresh rate – 120Hz instead of 144Hz. The 15T also uses PWM dimming while the Pro has DC dimming, which should matter if you’re sensitive to screen flicker at low brightness.

Performance

The Xiaomi 15T runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 8400-Ultra, a 4nm chip paired with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and up to 512GB UFS 4.1 storage. The chipset is pretty decent overall, but nothing like the Dimensity 9400+ you get in pro model.

Even though you won’t notice the gap while doing normal activities, gaming, however, is where you notice it’s not flagship-level. Demanding games will struggle to run on “Balanced” settings, while the Pro can max out all settings.

Camera System

The camera setup includes a 50MP main camera with the Light Fusion 800 sensor, a 40MP 2x telephoto, a 12MP ultrawide, and a 32MP selfie camera. The main sensor is smaller than the Pro’s Light Fusion 900, so low-light performance takes a hit.

The telephoto is the bigger compromise. It’s a basic 2x zoom without OIS, compared to the Pro’s 5x telephoto with stabilization. Long-range zoom quality drops significantly, and there’s no 4K 120fps video recording. You still get Leica’s color profiles and bokeh effects. The main camera produces solid results in good lighting.

Battery and Charging

The 15T packs a 5500mAh battery, same as the Pro. Battery life, according to Xiaomi, will easily cover a full day with moderate to heavy use, and conservative users might get two days. Charging is limited to 67W wired – no wireless charging option. It reaches about 65% in 30 minutes, which is decent but not as fast as the Pro’s 90W wired and 50W wireless combo.
