Built on Redmi Titan Structure, both models combine a high-strength motherboard, reinforced mid-frame, and multi-layer shock-absorbing design, complemented by Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2 — together enabling certified drop resistance from heights of up to 2.5 meters. Redmi Note 15 Pro+ 5G further incorporates an ultra-tough fibreglass back panel to improve impact absorption without adding unnecessary weight.

The rest of the line-up features a durable structural design that has passed the SGS Comprehensive Shock and Drop-Resistance test, delivering dependable protection in real-world use.
