The 15T phones are follow-ups to the 15 and 15 Pro, which first launched in China in October 2024. The 15T models offer similar specs at a more affordable price and are launching in Europe today.
The 15T handsets run on MediaTek silicon: the Dimensity 8400-Ultra in the 15T and the Dimensity 9400 Plus in the 15T Pro. Both devices feature 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB storage in the regular model, with a 1TB cap for the Pro.
Both phones have 6.83-inch OLED displays, are thinner than the 15 Pro or 15 Ultra, and share IP68 ratings, 5,500mAh batteries, and fast wired charging. The Pro supports wireless charging.
The 15T Pro features a 50-megapixel f/1.62 main camera and a 50-megapixel telephoto lens. The regular 15T shares only the ultrawide and the 32-megapixel selfie camera, using different sensors in its main and tele cameras.
The 15T phones are the first Xiaomi phones outside China to support satellite voice calls, allowing calls without cell service or Wi-Fi, with limitations on calling other 15T users only.
The 15T Pro is available to order in the UK, starting at £649 (around $870), while the 15T starts at £549 (around $740).
