Infinix Note 60 & 60 Pro  vs Redmi Note 15: The Mid-Range Battle Pakistan Actually Cares About

Introduction

If you have a budget somewhere between Rs. 70,000 and Rs. 100,000 and you are trying to figure out what to buy, chances are these three phones have come up in your research — the Infinix Note 60, the Infinix Note 60 Pro, and the Redmi Note 15. All three are chasing the same Pakistani buyer: someone who wants a good display, decent camera, solid battery, and a 5G-ready future.

We have pulled specs directly from GSMArena, prices from PriceOye and WhatMobile, and launch info from official brand sources. No filler, no guesswork.

Meet the Contenders

The Infinix Note 60 is the base model in Infinix’s new 2026 Note lineup, powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 7400 Ultimate chip with 5G, Android 16, and a 6,500mAh battery — all for around Rs. 84,999.

The Infinix Note 60 Pro steps things up with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, 90W charging, 30W wireless charging, and a slightly higher price at Rs. 95,999–99,999.

The Redmi Note 15 is Xiaomi’s 2026 Pakistan entry, officially launched here in March 2026 at Rs. 69,999. It runs on the Helio G100 Ultra and stays on 4G — its biggest drawback when compared to two 5G phones.

Display — Infinix Pulls Ahead, But Not by Miles

All three phones have AMOLED screens, which is great at this price range. The Infinix Note 60 and Note 60 Pro both sport a 6.78-inch panel at 144Hz with 1208 x 2644 pixels and 4,500 nits peak brightness — a genuinely excellent level that holds up even in Pakistan’s bright summer sunlight. Both screens support Ultra HDR content.

The Redmi Note 15 comes with a 6.77-inch display at 120Hz, 1080 x 2392 pixels, and 3,200 nits peak. Still solid for outdoor use, just a step behind the Infinix panels in refresh rate and raw brightness. For content creators or anyone who watches a lot of video, the Infinix duo wins this round.

Chipset & Performance — The 5G Question Changes Everything

The Infinix Note 60 uses the Dimensity 7400 Ultimate, a 4nm chip with solid 5G capability. It handles daily tasks, streaming, and most games comfortably, with AnTuTu scores typically landing in the 500,000–600,000 range.

The Infinix Note 60 Pro takes things further with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7s Gen 4. Infinix claims up to 120fps in titles like Honor of Kings, and the Adreno 810 GPU is notably better at graphics. The chip supports 4K video and comes paired with a vapor chamber cooling system. Early user reports confirm smooth, responsive day-to-day performance.

The Redmi Note 15 runs on the Helio G100 Ultra — a 6nm chip that handles everyday use well, but is a step behind both Infinix chips in raw performance. More importantly, it does not support 5G. Buying a 4G-only phone at Rs. 70,000 when 5G alternatives are close by is a tough call to justify in 2026.

Camera — More Megapixels Don’t Tell the Full Story

The Redmi Note 15 has a 108MP main camera, while both Infinix phones have 50MP sensors. Does that mean the Redmi has a better camera? Not necessarily.

Both Infinix models carry a 50MP f/1.6 sensor with OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation) and PDAF. That f/1.6 aperture lets in more light, and OIS keeps shots steady when you’re moving or in low light. Both also shoot 4K video at 30fps — something the Redmi Note 15 cannot match, topping out at 1080p@60fps.

The Redmi Note 15’s 108MP camera lacks OIS and is paired with just a 2MP depth sensor. Daylight shots will be detailed, but for video work or low-light shooting, the Infinix cameras have a structural advantage.

Where the Redmi genuinely wins: its 20MP front camera versus the 13MP selfie shooters on both Infinix phones. If you take a lot of selfies or do video calls daily, that matters.

Battery & Charging — Infinix’s Biggest Surprise

The Redmi Note 15 has a solid 6,000mAh battery, but charges at just 33W — roughly 90+ minutes for a full charge. In a market where the competition is at 45W and above, this is noticeably slow.

The Infinix Note 60 has a 6,150–6,500mAh battery with 45W wired and 30W wireless charging. Wireless charging at this price point is genuinely unusual and useful. GSMArena’s testing shows 50% charge in about 26 minutes.

The Infinix Note 60 Pro is the standout here. Its 90W wired charging takes the 6,500mAh battery from 1% to 100% in about 41 minutes — flagship-level speed. It also includes bypass charging for gaming, preventing heat buildup when plugged in during long sessions, and a ‘battery self-healing’ feature designed to slow long-term degradation.

Software & Long-Term Updates

Both Infinix phones boot Android 16 with XOS 16 — among the very few non-flagship phones in Pakistan shipping with Android 16 out of the box. Infinix promises 3 major OS updates and 5 years of security patches.

The Redmi Note 15 ships with Android 15 and HyperOS 2, promising 4 major OS updates and 5 years of security patches. That is one more major update than Infinix offers, which is meaningful for buyers planning to hold onto their phone for 4+ years. HyperOS is also a polished, cleaner experience than older MIUI versions.

Build Quality & Design

The Infinix Note 60 and Note 60 Pro both use aluminium frames and aluminium backs — a genuine rarity at this price. Most competitors use plastic backs, so the metal build stands out. Both carry IP64 dust and water resistance.

The Redmi Note 15 has a plastic frame and back with IP64 protection. It is lighter at 183g versus the Note 60’s 199g. The Infinix Note 60 Pro has an extra trick: an Active Matrix Display behind the camera island for custom animations, and a Halo light status indicator around the camera module.

Who Should Buy Which Phone?

Buy the Redmi Note 15 if:

Budget is your top priority and you need to stay near Rs. 70,000

You still use a 3.5mm headphone jack regularly

Selfie quality matters more than rear camera video capability

You want expandable storage via microSD

You are outside a major city and value Xiaomi’s nationwide service network


Buy the Infinix Note 60 if:

You want 5G at a reasonable Rs. 85,000 price point

A brighter, smoother 144Hz display is important to you

You want wireless charging without going to the Pro tier

A metal build and Android 16 at this price is a compelling combo for you


Buy the Infinix Note 60 Pro if:

Gaming is a priority — Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 and Adreno 810 make a real difference

You shoot a lot of video and want 4K with OIS

90W charging is something you will actually use and appreciate

You want the most complete, future-proof package around Rs. 100,000

Final Verdict

In an honest assessment, the upgrade from the Redmi Note 15 to either Infinix phone is significant enough to justify the price gap for most buyers. You get 5G, a superior display, OIS cameras, wireless charging, and a metal build — the Redmi Note 15 cannot match that combination even at a lower price.

If your budget stretches to Rs. 85,000, the Infinix Note 60 is a strong pick. If you can reach Rs. 100,000, the Note 60 Pro’s Snapdragon chip and 90W charging make it one of the most complete packages available in Pakistan right now.

The Redmi Note 15 still has a place in this market — the price, selfie camera, headphone jack, and Xiaomi’s service network are real advantages. But selling a 4G phone at Rs. 70,000 in 2026 when 5G alternatives are within reach is a harder sell with every passing month.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. Is the Infinix Note 60 better than the Redmi Note 15?
